Ted Quote #1250
Quote from Ted in P.S. I Love You
Ted: Subway girl's name is Jeanette and she does grind her teeth.
Lily: I assume that started the moment she met you?
Ted: Uh, well, the fact is she wanted to find me.
[flashback:]
Jeanette: The first thing I did was list out all the details I remembered about you.
Ted: Is that a yellow legal pad?
Jeanette: Yeah. I've even got a backup.
Ted: Oh, my God.
Jeanette: You had a tweed blazer and chalk all over your hands, so I figured you were either a professor or a British gymnast.
Ted: [British accent] I'm bloody good on the pommel 'orse. Regrettin' this accent. Can't seem to stop.
Jeanette: Then I asked the lady at the student center where I could find the youngest, cutest professor on staff.
Ted: And?
Jeanette: She sent me to a physics class.
Ted: Professor Leyborne? I wonder if she'd think "Dr. Goodhair" was so cute if she knew he hasn't been published in over a year.
Jeanette: Then she sent me here, but the security guard wouldn't let me in without an I.D. I was about to give up when the fire alarm just sent you out. It was like...
[present:]
Ted: Destiny. Right? Right? It's a meet-cute.

‘P.S. I Love You’ Quotes
Quote from Robin
[on "Robin Sparkles: Underneath the Tunes":]
Announcer: Sparkles's hit records "Let's Go to the Mall' and "Sandcastles in the Sand" both went maple, with "Mall" eventually going double maple.
Luc Robitaille: I've never admitted this till now, but before a big game, I'd listen to "Sand Castles in the Sand" and get a good cry on. I'm not ashamed.
Announcer: But after endless touring, Robin started to crack.
Robin: [1996 interview] Who doesn't love the mall? Shopping with your friends and... I can't do this. Get this out of my face, please. Thank you. Pardon me. Thanks. Sorry.
Quote from Ted
Ted: Look, there's a fine line between love and insanity. It's the Dobler-Dahmer theory.
[Lily and Barney groan]
Marshall: Damn, I always forget the little one.
Ted: If both people are into each other, a big romantic gesture works. Like Lloyd Dobler holding up the boom box outside Diane Court's window in Say Anything. But if one person isn't into the other, the same gesture comes off serial-killer crazy, or Dahmer.
Quote from Barney
Barney: So are you the one that Robin stalked?
Simon: Oh, that story goes back to the 1996 Grey Cup.
Barney: What in God's name is that?
Simon: Only Canada's Super Bowl. Didn't you ever see Robin Sparkles: Underneath the Tunes on MuchMusic?
Barney: Again, I have to go with, "What in God's name is that?"
Simon: It's only Canada's VH1's Behind the Music. There's one all about Robin Sparkles. Tells you the whole story from "A" to zed.
