Rochelle Quote #71
Quote from Rochelle in Everybody Hates Food Stamps
Julius: You know what? Forget about it. It's no big deal. Money is money. We can still buy groceries with food stamps. You bought those name brands, so we gonna have to make it stretch, so get generic.
Rochelle: We ain't got the food stamps. [cutlery clattering]
Julius: What?
Rochelle: Oh, I gave it to my hairdresser to fix my perm.
Julius: That was $200 worth of food stamps.
Rochelle: Baby, she only gave me 25 cents on the dollar. What do you want me to do?
Julius: You couldn't talk her up to 27 cent? You know what? Hey, at least you paid the light bill. [the lights go off]
Rochelle: Chris!
Chris: I didn't do anything.
Rochelle: I know. I know.
