Tahani Quote #120

Quote from Tahani in The Snowplow

Tahani: Anyway, everyone, I want you to meet Larry Hemsworth!
Larry Hemsworth: Oh! The legendary study group. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to build up the courage to meet you. I guess you can see why.
Eleanor: Is he ashamed at having a perfect jawline and 0% body fat?
Larry Hemsworth: Still can't believe she wants to marry me... A dumb old paediatric surgeon who barely has an eight-pack.
Chidi: Do you know what you look like?
Jason: More importantly, did Miley Cyrus write the song "Wrecking Ball" about Chris's brother Liam?
Larry Hemsworth: Wonderful. More questions about my talented brothers. God forbid there's a single day when I'm the special one.
Tahani: Oh, sweetheart, don't go! You're important too! Fixing babies' spines is just as valuable as acting!

Quote from Jason

Simone: Jason? You OK there, mate?
Jason: No. I have to watch the Jaguar games alone, on my computer at like three in the morning on Mondays. It's so annoying. Everything here is in a... I don't know how to describe it, like... a different zone of time. No, that sounds stupid. A different clock land.

Quote from Simone

Eleanor: Why did I do that?
Simone: OK, here's my guess. As humans evolved, the first big problem we had to overcome was "me versus us". Learning to sacrifice a little individual freedom for the benefit of a group. You know, like sharing food and resources so we don't starve or get eaten by tigers, things like that.
Eleanor: OK, with you so far.
Simone: The next problem to overcome was "us versus them". Trying to see other groups, different from ours, as equals. That one, we're still struggling with. It's why we have racism and nationalism, and... why fans of Stone Cold Steve Austin hate fans of The Rock.
Eleanor: No, we hate The Rock because he went Hollywood and Stone Cold keeps it real, so The Rock's fans are the real jabronis. Point made. Keep going.
Simone: Well, what's interesting about you is... I don't think you ever got past the "me versus us" stage. I mean, have you ever been part of a group that you really cared about?
Eleanor: I was in the Girl Scouts.
Simone: Really?
Eleanor: Technically, I joined under a fake name because I wanted to steal a bunch of cookies.
Simone: See? The Brainy Bunch is basically the first group that became part of your self-identity and now that's breaking up, you're feeling this new kind of loss. And you're scared of going back to being alone. I mean, that's just my guess. The other possible medical diagnosis is that you're just a bit of a dick.

Quote from Janet

Cashier: G'day, how can I help you?
Michael: One scratch-off lottery ticket, please!
Janet: Oh! Not that one. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. [quietly to Michael] These tickets were printed before we got down here. I know which ones are the winners! [to the cashier] And... stop! That's the one. Good ol' lucky number 186 from the bottom!
Cashier: Here you go.
Janet: Also! That bathroom key that you lost nine months ago, slid under the register. And the woman that you think is your aunt is actually your mum. OK, bye!
