"Why was Harold talking to this man? This man... was an idiot; this man used words like 'wibbly-wobbly' and 'convo.' and explained that trees were
trees. Of course trees were trees; Harold knew that trees were trees."During
Waiting for Guffman:
"So you didn't want to be with him anymore, but you waited for him to break it off?"
"Sort of. I just figured that I'd already hurt him enough and he needed the sense of control that he'd get from dumping me."
"That's what men do, you know. You realize you were a man in this situation?"
"I was just trying to be sensitive to his feelings. I'd already broken his heart before and-"
"No, really. This is exactly a conversation I would have with a guy. It's like when a guy is a twat for a week or two, hoping his girlfriend will dump him first so he doesn't have to."
[irrational female pout] "It is not."
During
This Is Spinal Tap:
"I'm not THAT old. I didn't see it in the theater, you know. What - did you? Did you quit ballet lessons for Spinal Tap?"
"Ha. Don't you remember, it was She-Ra. Did you watch He-Man and She-Ra?"
"Yes, we had those in England."
"What about Thundercats? You had Thundercats, right?"
"I think so..."
"You know, it took some serious self-control not to bring all of my Thundercats box sets back with me..........My hell. I *am* a guy."
"My point, exactly."
Question for you all that Harold brought up after we watched both Guffman and
Drop Dead Gorgeous: would you say signing a song while singing it is a common thing in the US?
