  17. @Do Tell, I highly recommend giving it a watch, if only so you'll understand the references to it that have popped up everywhere over the years.

    Like, you probably have no idea what the whole leg shaped lamp thing is about, do you? It's actually a very prestigious trophy.

    Do you know about BB gun safety or how soap tastes? That movie will teach you all.

  20. A Christmas Story

    ReplyDelete
  21. i get the Christmas Story references only because I've seen and heard so much of them over the years, again, it's like Casablanca and It's A Wonderful Life..pervasive enough to know the movie without having seen it. I've seen a few clips, just not ever sat down and watched the movie.

    I was in Cleveland recently and one of that area's celebrated attractions is the house from that movie, which I guess I might have gone to if I was an ACS fan.

  35. “A Christmas Story” gets my vote. It wouldn’t feel right not to watch it every year. 🎄
    “Jingle All the Way” is my #2. For some reason we watch it every year, too. And then I spend the next week talking like Arnold. 😅
