Crook: [during a diner robbery] What’s you doing, you pighead sucka? Harry Callahan: Every day for the past ten years, Loretta there’s been giving me a large black coffee, today she gives me a large black coffee only it has sugar in it, a lotta sugar. I just came back to complain. Now, you boys put those guns down. Crook: Say what? Harry Callahan: Well, we’re not just gonna let you walk out of here. Crook: Who’se we sucka? Harry Callahan: [slowly drawing his .44 Magnum] Smith and Wesson… and me.
It was 30 years ago today that Hands Across America took place. Approximately 6.5 million people held hands in a human chain for fifteen minutes along a path across the continental United States. People donated money to participate. The proceeds went to fight hunger and homelessness.
Personally, I think our country could really use another event like this. Between the sideshow that is our presidential election (with the idiotic media being the ringleader), racism running rampant, shootings everywhere, and people just looking down at their phones instead of observing what’s around them, we really need to take a step back, take a breath, and band together for once. People need to learn to respect, love, and help each other. An event like Hands Across America would be perfect. Although, I have a feeling that the chain would constantly be broken from people needing one hand to hold their phone and take selfies. Oh well, it’s the thought that counts. I doubt this will ever happen again, so we’ll just have to Return to the ’80s to relive it.
End of rant. I was just going to write that first paragraph, and post the video. Then this rant just came to me. If you’re offended, put on your big boy or big girl pants, get over yourself, and enjoy this video. It will bring you back to happier times. 🙂
[Sitting at the dinner table] Freddy Benson: Excuse me. May I go to the bathroom first? Lawrence Jamieson: Of course you may. Freddy Benson: [after a pause, and with relief] Thank you.
Cheech: [seeing a jar with a yellowish fluid inside] Hey, it’s about time man. Hey, what do you got man? Give me some. Chong: What? Cheech: Give me a drink, man. C’mon man, give me a drink! Chong: [Points to jar] Of this? Cheech: Yeah! Chong: Go ahead man, help yourself! Cheech: Wait a minute
[Sniffs the Jar] Cheech: Hey man, that’s pee! Chong: No kidding. Cheech: What are you doing with pee? Chong: It’s for my probation officer. Cheech: Why, does he drink pee? Chong: No man, last week I was supposed to bring some in, you know? and I forgot the wash the jar out first. so they see all that mayonnaise floating around in there, and they think I’m on some kind of weird drug again! Cheech: [laughing] Alright! Chong: And I’m really going to fuck with his mind this time. Cheech: Why, what’d you do? Chong: I had my sister pee in it. Cheech: Yeah? Chong: Yeah, and she’s pregnant man!
