Top 5 Bits of NewsRadio Dialogue
To commemorate my recent love-affair with the great TV show Newsradio, here's five bits of dialogue. Unfortunately there are about one million more that I couldn't include. I'm sorry.
1. LISA: Bill, you've been dumped before, right?
BILL: No.
LISA: Oh c'mon, of course you have. Everybody's been dumped.
BILL: Let's see...dumpity dumpity dumpity--nope.
LISA: Ok, fine...
BILL: Wait a minute, I was dumped once, a long time ago...very painful.
LISA: See, isn't it...
BILL: No wait a minute...that was just a movie I saw.
2. BILL: I remember one time in college we got this pledge drunk, locked him in the trunk of the car, and abandoned the car in a junk yard.
DAVE: And then?
BILL: What?
DAVE: How'd he get out of the car?
BILL: You know what I have to make a phone call...
3. JIMMY: I wanted a house just like Xanadu, but without a dorky name.
LISA: So what did you call it?
JIMMY: Fort Awesome.
4. BILL: I'm...well, I'm hurt...deep down...where I'm soft...like a woman.
DAVE: I understand. And I'm sorry that I hurt you...Deep down inside...
BILL: Where?
DAVE: [Clenching teeth] Where you're soft...like a woman.
BILL: Don't mock me Dave. Don't be a hurter.
5. BILL: I remember one time, my father came home from a night on the town--which of course had turned into a week--and my Mother said, "John, is there anything you won't drink?" And my father shot back, "Poison! I'm saving it for you!" [Laughing] And I and my brother--who is now an alcoholic himself--just about died laughing...good times. Gooood times.
