OT: A Christmas Story: What was your favorite quote? (Since we don't have anything good to talk
- Thread starter Freddie.B.Cocky
- Start date
“My father worked in profanity the way other artists might work in oils or clay. It was his true medium, a master”
Just watched it last night, and this was the very quote that came to mind after reading Freddie’s topic. LOL
"my dad wove a tapestry of obscenities that is still hovering over Lake Michigan?
NOW it was serious. A double-dog-dare. What else was there but a "triple dare you"? And then, the coup de grace of all dares, the sinister triple-dog-dare.
That son of a bitch would freeze up in the middle of summer on the equator.
Another one of my favorites is the quote below about the different brands of soaps, simply because I'm not sure they even make those brands now but I remember them well.
Narrator (Ralphie as an adult):
Over the years I got to be quite a connoisseur of soap. Though my personal preference was for Lux, I found that Palmolive had a nice, piquant after-dinner flavor - heavy, but with a touch of mellow smoothness. Lifebuoy, on the other hand... (Yechh!)

A Christmas Story is probably my very favorite Christmas movie of all time, simply because so much of it I can relate to on a personal level. The movie takes place in the 40s and I was born in 45 but I don't remember my first Christmas to probably around 1950. And in those days very little changed in a few years.

Here is two of my dad's funniest sayings
"that bitch was so ugly, she made a freight train take a dirt road"
to my grandma's pineapple upside down cake cooked in a skillet, he said,
"damn that cake is so good, it'd make a tadpole slap a whale"

Not gonna lie...this part...
and him crying in his mom's arms gets me everytime.

When Raphie's dad tells him mom what he said while changing the tire- her reaction is perfect. That shocked scream is hilarious. She pulls that off like a pro.
Then when she calls the neighbor to tell her about the incident- her screaming and subsequent beatdown you can hear in the background always kills me.

There was a guy that worked for me 10 plus years ago and at Christmas we would draw names. Each person would state at least two or three items they would love to have. He wanted a replica of the lamp in the movie A Christmas Story and low and behold the person that drew his name got it for him. It wasn't as big as the one in the movie but it was very neat, nonetheless.
