What's your damage?

And now for a completely different take on alpha kids - Heathers trivia!  One New Year's night in the late 80s, after we'd stayed up to watch Dick Clark's Rockin' New Years Party or some silly thing, this movie suddenly showed up on HBO. We'd never even heard of it - and no wonder, if they had such a low budget for advertising. We were blown away.

Now it's time to share your favorite Heathers quotes, darling!

"What are you trying to do - kill me?" "What are YOU trying to do - sleep?"

[pam]

"If you were happy every day of your life you wouldn't be a human being. You'd be a game-show host."

[pam]

"It's one thing to want someone out of your life, but it's another thing to serve them a wake-up cup full of liquid Drano." Words to live by.

Let's not forget:

Heather Chandler: Grow up Heather, bulimia's so '87.

True then, true now!

But I've also been quite partial to:

Veronica Sawyer: Dear Diary, my teen-angst bullshit now has a body count.

Sigh. No one here at Westerburg wants to play our reindeer games.

So in memoriam to the 80s greatest art work:

Officer Milner: [arriving on crime scene] So, what's the deal?
Officer McCord: Suicide. Double suicide. They shot each other!
Officer Milner: Hey, that's Kurt Kelly!
Officer McCord: And the line backer, Ram Sweeney.
Officer Milner: My God, suicide. Why?
Officer McCord: [holds up bottle of mineral water found next to one of the bodies] Does *this* answer your question?
Officer Milner: [appalled] Oh man! They were fags?
Officer McCord: [grimly] Listen up:
[reading from forged suicide letter]
Officer McCord: "We realized we could never reveal our forbidden love to an uncaring and un-understanding world."
Officer Milner: [disgusted] Jesus H. Christ!
Officer McCord: The quarterback, buggering the linebacker...
[shaking head]
Officer McCord: What a waste!
Officer Milner: Oh, the humanity!

Too bad everyone else in blogland thinks "Knocked Up" is the summa of American film!
