| I miss you, Sheila. Come back if you can. |
"Hooey. I can do anything that dumb human can. He isn't the one; I am the real one! What could he do against me? I bring deadly accurate various-sized fireballs to the table. I could incinerate him completely before he even knew I didn't like him. I'm ready too by the way," said Bumpkin.
"What exactly are you ready for Miss Bumpkin?" I asked.
"To take complete control of the Earth from the rule of the humans."
"Wow. That's pretty good ma'am."
"You don't believe me, do you?"
"No, of course I believe you ma'am, I've seen what you can do. You're more powerful than Yoda."
"Damn straight," Bumpkin replied. "Once again, even with Yoda, it could be over as soon as it started. I could dispatch him with claws, fireballs, or a little of both; it would be my choice."
"That's right ma'am."
"And you don't be condescending to me--"
"Sorry, ma'am--"
"Shut up."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Shut up already! Don't you know what that means? Wait! Don't answer that! Just literally shut up, you jerk! And I want to watch Groundhog Day after this!" As soon as Lucinda and Sloopy heard her say that, they squealed with delight. The sisters love that movie so much because groundhogs are mentioned several times in the film, and, their personal favorite actor (all 3 of them), Bill Murray, is in it. Also, at least one groundhog appears in the film, and it's funny. I've lost track of how many times they've watched it. I once saw an episode of Cribs in which a rapper had out-Scarfaced quite possibly all or most of the other over-zealous Scarface fans. Not only did he proudly display Scarface posters and the like, he had set up a TV to play Scarface on a continuous loop: over and over again till forever. That's what it feels like is happening here. If not for shows like The Office, 30 Rock, CSI, and ones that involve food (any and all), it could get close to that insane Scarface nonsense.
I was wondering if you loved that movie. Love Bill Murray
