I watched The Wedding Singer tonight. I hadn’t seen it in a while so I thought it would be fun. Sure enough, I found myself smiling. Favorite parts:

• When Robbie is singing at the wedding party after his breakup and he’s singing “Love Stinks”
• When Robbie tells Linda to take off his Van Halen shirt before she jinxes the band and they break up.
• [at a job interview for a bank]
  • Mr. Simms: Do you have any experience?
  • Robbie: No, sir, I have no experience but I’m a big fan of money. I like it, I use it, I have a little. I keep it in a jar on top of my refrigerator. I’d like to put more in that jar. That’s where you come in.

I’m sitting here watching Ghostbusters for the first time in over 15 years. I’d forgotten how funny this movie is. Funny lines include:

1. Why worry? Each of us is wearing an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back.
2. Job interview question: “Do you believe in UFO’s, astroprojections, mental telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full transmediums, the loch ness monster and the theory of Atlantis?”
   Answer: “Uh, if there’s a steady paycheck in it, I’ll believe anything you say.”
3. That’s a big Twinkie.
4. She’s not my girlfriend. I find her interesting because she’s a client and because she sleeps above her covers… *four feet* above her covers.
5. Ray, when someone asks you if you’re a god, you say “YES”!
