Rose Quote #996

Quote from Rose in Melodrama

Rose: Tell me the truth. Do these glasses make me look stupid?
Blanche: Let's just say they don't hide it.
Rose: The consumer show asked me to test these chemically treated lenses. The theory is they don't fog up when you come in from the cold. Excuse me. [places head in the refrigerator]
Dorothy: Rose, you wanna run that looking stupid question by us again?
Rose: I'm just doing my job.
Dorothy: Rose, leave the glasses in the refrigerator, close the door and keep your head out here with us.
Rose: Well, how will I know if they fog up?
Dorothy: The little man who lives in there who turns the light on and off, he'll tell you.
Rose: I'm not in the mood for jokes, especially about the little man. You know he scares me.
