I love the following quote that is just after the clip ends....When Trautman tells the King $h!t Cop....."you better remember one thing...a good supply of body bags".

For those of us who enjoy memorable lines from movies, it usually follows that we enjoy repeating the same lines to others in person who appreciate them and can repeat those same lines (or others) back—honing the tone and inflection so the line gets repeated to sound just like they said it in the scene. (Especially at work). Lot of fun. We all have our movies/movie scenes that we’ve watched so many times we can repeat the dialog of certain parts in our sleep.

I worked with a guy once whose films were Caddyshack and Full Metal Jacket. We repeated lines from those films often:

“YOU! YO-HOO! You’re no gentleman!”
“Yeah—I’m no doorknob either, alright?”

“WHAT IS THAT, PRIVATE PYLE?!”
“Sir, a jelly donut, sir!”

A new coworker has a penchant for repeating lines. The movies we've discovered that we're both very familiar with enough to go back and forth to amuse ourselves and pass the time are Jaws, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Full Metal Jacket and Scent of a Woman. We crack each other up all the time with them.

It’s one thing to jot down lines or repost YouTube video’s on a message board—which is fun, no doubt—but it’s a bonus to find a coworker, friend, family member who enjoys swapping lines in person.

"Hey, you wanna get high man?"

"Does Howdy Doody got wooden balls man?"

"You in no position to disagree with me, boy. I got a loaded 45 here--you got pimples."

"You still want to show me your cucumber?"

Don't breath until I see you again.

May I suggest using this site to shrink pictures before you post them? https://picresize.com/results
Use the pull down menu, choose custom size, 500 or 600 is a manageable-on-the-eyes width, then hit enter. Save the newly downsized picture to your desktop, post it somewhere on the internet--then copy the image address for use here. Either that, or try to find alternate images of the same picture of a smaller size. This size is just overkill.

If you are able to find an image and paste it in a post, your PC skills aren't as severely limited as you make out. Merely search the same image for a smaller size. Nothing to it.

Like I said before, I'll try.

By the way, do you consider this "overkill" as well: viewtopic.php?p=492985#p492985

We've gotten tons of photos of that size previously in that and other threads before you developed your current sensitivities. Perhaps you may want to enter a word or two on your newly founded limitations.
