i love this class

prof. okihiro: "so, why would asians want to distance themselves from the term 'oriental?' You enter the orient, you pass the bamboo curtains, you smell incense, you--GOOONG"

and this gem:

"people are surprised you speak english, 'cause you're supposed to be a foreigner! i say, 'no speaky english.' that way i can get away with a lot of things"
Dolly the sheep

Laura: She probably looks like her mother, all sheep look the same.
Megan: ...Well that'th inthenthitive.

M: Baaaaaa.

-------

Student: I'm in medical school.
Mark Strand: (after long pause) Medical school...We could do a trade. I'll criticize and you take my pulse.

-------

Megan: Can you remember that?
M: Why, yes I can.
Megan: I'm not addressing you. ::looks around:: "Wha? Where am I?"
M: What did you say before again?

Magnolia bakery, cupcake overdose

Ralphy: I don't want that, I'm gonna take one bite and leave it. It'll be like an orphan on someone's doorstep, critically injured.

M: But what's the point of leaving the cupcake orphaned there after us biting it? No one will eat it then.

Ralphy: It's not for eating, it's for laughing. For us - two - to laugh at.

(Proceed swathing wounded Magnolia cupcake with wax paper as blanket, cupcake paper as baby bonnet, and a cardboard box as crib, leaving it on a fortunate Villager's doorstep.)

Guy from "Mar Adentro" (in lisping spanish): And I do what I've always wanted to do with you each time...

My mom gets out of the car as we're driving out of the garage to turn off the garage light that's accidentally been left on. She scurries around trying to find the switch but turns yet another light bulb on from a switch inside the house. My dad is raving in the car and motioning wildly with his hands. Then she scurries around more and turns on another huge camper light that's lying around randomly. So there are three lights on before she manages to figure out what's going on. Finally she scurries around more to turn them all off. It was like watching some weird light bulb riddle happening.
Rad dance moves

Ralphy: Yeah, the sexiness and attractiveness. Just shovel it out. (shovel dance motions). Buy it back at the supermarket. (shopping dance).

M: Remember the 96th street hose?
Megan: Where? What? What hoes?!
M: The hose. Not 'hoes,' the garden hose!

M: Aw, this is so sad.
Megan: I know. She's a crack addict.
M: Yeah, how could he not know she has AIDS?
Megan: Roger, you're so stupid. Marry me.

-------

96th street station hose

Megan: Who's peeing?

-------

Ralphy: Y'all are just big ol' bitches.

-------

M: This is Megan, she's a misogynistic, bio-chem, people-hating major.
Ralphy: That would make a great death metal song. Although we could maybe take out the bio-chem. Or put it at the end.

Flo: Isn't that play all about AIDS?
m: AIDS is the new black.
Flo: I'm posting that on the blog!

Flo: From the black guy?
m: i have my dad's body, you know, his saggy flat chest.
"Just go to sleep. And never wake up."

--------

Flo: Not everyone can wake up at 3 in the morning, you know.
Megan: For your information, I wake up at 3 in the afternoon.
