Jen R: this place is like me drawing with my marker pens. i'm gonna need one of those orthopedic pillows for my craning neck, i like to snoop. i get whiplash BEFORE the rollercoaster. i'm gonna need a donut pillow for my butt to go on that rollercoaster, when i sit on a donut pillow i get hungry for donuts. i saved my prenatal pregnancy pillow, never got rid of it.
me: this rollercoaster is too fast for me!!!
Melissa: it's greased with maple syrup to make it extra fast.
me: what's that clicking sound, is the roller coaster breaking apart?!!!
Melissa: no that's me clicking 3 tongs to see what decision i should make.

Henry Winkler: night shift at a morgue alone, it's so.........quiet not quite creepy. peaceful not purgatory. haleful not Hell. energizing not eerie. shift not strange. and i'm not even goth. it's good for your mental health to be a Nine Inch Nails Monk at Berkeley...

bathtub scene.
Henry: isn't it weird when people IN a movie refer to ANOTHER movie?
Jane Fonda in Klute: right? it questions the existence of these characters. are the people in THIS movie real or are the people in THAT movie real?
Shelley Long: i don't have a watch, i have a Swatch...

Madame Pons: no but this bathtub scene is QUITE fetching. very sexy. i'm gonna do this to win Takahashi back, instead of water fill the bathtub with soft fake furs, get naked in clothes, makes the fucking lend itself to LESS CHAFING.
Mardith: no LUSH soaps? 
Madame Pons: nope, i own a Swatch...
Super Mario: it's IMPOSSIBLE to fuck underwater...

Henry: did you get beat up by your pimp?
Shelly with swollen eyes: no it's just my smeared makeup. i've been crying for 24 hours.

at the cemetery.
Michael Keaton: there's a tombstone here carved with the name BEETLEJUICE three times.........hey guys, don't wait up for me, i'm gonna try something, i'm gonna try and dig a hole here...

at Judge Harold T. Stone's office.
Judge Harry Stone: you're lucky this is an election year. we need Andrew Cuomo to become President or all of Trump's New York cases go POOF. like magic. we'll get you off with a warning, prostitution is about getting off anyway.
Michael: let's make a messy situation messier.
Roger Federer: DAMN, you can really cause a lot of BRAIN DAMAGE with a fucking tennis racquet. tennis is RIFE with concussions...

Steven Spielberg: this adult nightclub looks like the nightclub from my live-action Flintstones movie...
Al Pacino: that's the dude who shot me dead in Scarface!!! pelican cabron.

Michael Keaton: you belong in the archives, buddy, that's the best line from this movie.

Michael Keaton: i broke three ribs squeezed between the two of you, but true love is worth that. i'm cold out here.
Henry: get naked.
Shelley: if you SQUINT hard enough you see the three of us by a crane during the end-credits. we all stayed by that crane for 24 hours before Ron Howard said cut.
Ron Howard: i forgot. Shelley said she likes em long.
Shelley: as in Long Island.
Michael Keaton: i slept in that crane overnight. i have no friends. my parents are dead. in the morning all my muscles were gone. all the socks rolled up into balls left my chest...

Michael Keaton: you're not SEEING the big picture, man.
Henry Winkler: that's not funny, my father-in-law has degenerative ocular cancer...
Henry: why are you so TWITCHY? are you on drugs?
Michael: no, i have a lot of anxiety.

the penguin from Neon Genesis Evangelion: let's talk about this soundtrack!!!
Jen R: i have this on vinyl.
penguin: Quarterflash is an '80s staple...
Dionne Warwick: "That's What Friends Are For" is MY song, you spiky-haired demon!!!
Rod Stewart: i tried so hard to make this song mine but it wasn't to be, it wasn't believable coming from me.

Heaven 17 "Penthouse and Pavement": we're missing that Janet Jackson vibe The Human League has...

penguin: sure, Talk Talk, but that's all talk. i'll leave you with that one song that you have jogging around in your brain RIGHT NOW but you don't know what it's called: Penguin Cafe Orchestra "Perpetuum Mobile". IBM, right? Chevron, right? and either UPS or Waldenbooks. g'night folks.

Dry January is a cult which was started by Ikea. At first they made sure you could follow the rules along the arrowed Ikea path, then they put magical powder in the Swedish meatballs which made you crave them, and then they introduced dry January knowing you would get so bored that you’d start DIY and home improvements and buy “put-together” furniture. They’re trying to ban Flairtenders and any kind of overwhelming personality traits because it’s not conducive to plutocracy. Obviously, Disney first started this concept but it went to the dogs and Ikea took it on after Carl Sagan dismissed the idea as over controlling and with not enough waxing and waning. Apparently, if you wear Bobby socks they are impervious to the Ikea floor and you can snap out of the trance and go all anarchist. However, they put Jane Fonda videos on a loop around the store and the city to help you get back in line. *)

JULI!!! only i call you Juli, wink wink. 101 Umlautians. yeah mine was kcirtaP but actually Tap with an umlaut over the a for Pat is a TERRIFIC brand name for bathroom faucets!!!

Brian Smith is my mortal enemy for life but his Swedish meatballs at that 3rd Grade UN global food faire were delicious. it's just weird when people celebrate the end of Dry January with a glass of champagne on Feb 1, kinda defeats the purpose

Cocktail really ages well, it's the ultimate '80s movie

love you
