Wow, you have really good taste. But I knew that already! \o/
Mr. Mister, huh? That's pretty much hilarious.
I think we should show Moonstruck here.
"Old man, you give those dogs another piece of my food and I'm gonna kick you 'til you're dead!"
Okay, I'll share the even more embarrassing part of the Mr. Mister story: we also considered naming him Lord Greystoke, because yes, my brother and I were devouring all of the Edgar Rice Burroughs 'Tarzan' paperbacks at the time...
And 'Moonstruck' would be awesome to show here!
Loretta, I love you. Not like they told you love is, and I didn't know this either, but love don't make things nice - it ruins everything. It breaks your heart. It makes things a mess. We aren't here to make things perfect. The snowflakes are perfect. The stars are perfect. Not us. Not us! We are here to ruin ourselves and to break our hearts and love the wrong people and *die*.
I love that speech!
