Quote from Lorelai in Eight O'Clock at the Oasis
Rory: What? Lorelai: You ruined my joke. Rory: No, the punchline ruined your joke. Lorelai: Ha! Rory: What? Lorelai: You admit it's a punchline. Rory: :Oh my God. Lorelai: Ha, I am vindicated. "How about that schnitzel!" has officially been declared a punchline. Rory: A really bad punchline. Lorelai: No one asked for the Norton Critical Edition. All the schnitzel and I wanted was some recognition and now we have it.
