QUOTIES!!!!!!!!!!

On this thread, post random quotes that family and friends said TODAY! They can be dialogue.

I'll start...

(we started trigonometry today)

Me: Trig is scary...

Classmate: No, trig is only scary if you don't know what you're doing. Therefore, yes, trig is terrifying.

"You were most amusing to watch."  My 16 year old sister, laughing at me.  I had been sleeping in the car.  We were coming back from Atlanta, and I had been up past midnight the night before (reading fanfiction, but she didn't need to know that) so predictably, with nothing to do in the car but read Les Miserables (which is an amazing book, but anyway), I fell asleep.  For ten minutes, maybe.  Still, they (she and my 7 year old sister) thought I was ridiculous.  Like that time when we were in Germany and I, being jet-lagged, had crashed on the couch of our rental apartment, and they took pictures of me.  Which I promptly deleted.

I spent the rest of the trip whacking those two minions with my (empty) Mello Yello bottle.

"Bloody 'ell."  Me, after getting back from said car trip and watching said Mello Yello bottle roll under the (stationary) lawn mower.  I had been aiming for the recycling bin, but missed.

I was attempting to finish some homework (summer homework) while talking to my friend on Scratch. 

"I have now officially finished two math problems in half an hour! Go me!"

Along those lines: when trying to write the first stupid sentence of my NaNo: "Okay, page one-- too hard!"

Me: I don't really like crepes with sweet toppings.  I prefer savory toppings.

My mom:  (referring to the word savory) Wow, (my real name), that's a big word.

Me: I watch a lot of cooking shows.

(watching a conducting class, with a very harsh teacher)

Teacher: You conduct with your head.  But you have a shiny head, so it's distracting.

@Gollum

 

By conducting, I thought you meant conducting electricity.XD

 

Last night, I turned on a flashlight and said, "Wow, this works much better in the dark."

@Melody

LOLAIRMI! (laugh out loud and I really mean it)  I think I figured out the flashlight bit, like, when I was four.

This morning I thought to myself, "Shouldn't the Redwall series be called the Miceflower series?" as opposed to the Mossflower series.  This started from my improved location.

I was role playing with my two best friends today...

Chuji: Why do you two have to fight so much?! *runs west*

Ky: I hate you, Lupus! *runs east*

Lupus: NOOO! *runs north*

Obsidian: Ah! This is all my fault!*runs south*

Quartz (to Spark) Uhh...I think we're the only two people left here.

My family and I are on vacation in Lake Tahoe. I was reading one of the info sheets:

Me: "metal bear-proof hut." Does that mean it's metal-bear proof? 

 

No, it means the hut is metal and bearproof.

Annie: "Let's just pretend she turned off the explode-outside-of-premises thing."

 

Dad (filling cracks in the wall): "CrackSpackle. That was my nickname in high school, you know. Jiminy CrackSpackle." (This one was a few days ago, but I wanted to put it here anyway.)

 

Me: "Hey, it has a little tail in the back! I never knew that!" (I was looking at a picture of a little robot thingy online. ^.^)
