How has "The Princess Bride" affected your life today? |
|
I've referenced it twice in posts this morning. Wait, no, now three times.

5. I read the book sometime between 1982 and 1986 |
|
while in undergrad school... I realized immediately that it was a rare find, and managed to spread the reading of it over two weeks, instead of the usual day. Surprisingly, the movie was just as good as the book (rare). I like the quote " I don't think that word means what you think it means".

11. Wasn't that sort of Bush's rationale for invading Iraq, except of course |
|
that Hussein didn't actually kill his father?

15. Helped me meet my wife... |

I used it in my "favorite movie quotes" in my profile: "You seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you." "You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die."
(the others were from Raising Arizona and Babe)

23. Replaced the water pump on our car |
|
$350 I wasn't expecting to have to pay. There goes the tax refund! :crazy:
I'm good - a little cross-eyed from what I have to do today, but it's mindless crap for once.

20. Well, I served Mandy Patinkin... |
|
I loved the movie. I thought it'd be nice to serve him. Went way over and above normal service and he didn't tip (though there was 15% on the check) anything for the extra nice service.

26. Almost referenced a good MLT in the BLT thread |
|
Asking if the BLT is not the best breakfast sandwhich.
I was <-> close to praising a good MLT where the mutton is nice and lean, just melts in your mouth.

Unfortunately, "unusual" is becoming less and less meaningful in that context...
