No more Napoleon

Abstract:
It has to be stopped. If it requires me to build a cake for everyone in the world just to have the catch phrases stopped, so help me Pedro, I'll do it.

This isn't like other movie quoting. People who haven't even seen "Napoleon Dynamite" are reciting it. That's the only funny part about hearing the peers reel out line after line from the movie - you can tell who's seen the movie and who hasn't....

Great article! My 11 year-old son and I saw the movie together and we both love it--I understand 30-somethings don't get it . . .

Haven't seen the other movies you mention, but we will (after I check to see if they're o.k. for an 11-year-old). Another fun movie to quote is Joe Dirt, and both the Ace Ventura movies.

My husband is a prof at the University of Missouri, and his PhD students and my son keep everybody in stitches by quoting the Napoleon movie.

Another comment--we even say to our 18-month-old Corgi "Jane, you fat lard, come eat your dinner!"
