Mike Quote #859
Quote from Mike in Floating 50
Frankie: I'm not eating highway pizza.
Mike: It might not be on the highway. It may still be in the parking lot.
Frankie: Oh, fingers crossed 'cause parking-lot pizza is so much better.
Mike: It might still be in the box.
Frankie: This is insane! We are not having this conversation.
Brick: What if it's not in the box, but still face-up?
Axl: I'll allow it.
Frankie: We're not doing this!
Mike: Frankie, you wouldn't throw $24 out the window and not go back for it.
Frankie: Okay, so this is the family we are now? We eat food off the road? If we do this, we are losing the one thing that separates us from possums! Is this how low we've sunk?
Mike: I feel like we've sunk lower. Nothing comes to mind, but I know we have.

Quote from Mike
Brick: We're having an "I Can't" ceremony at school.
Frankie: Oh, no. Is that something we have to go to?
Brick: No, it's an in-school ritual to help kids build a positive attitude. [Mike scoffs] We're each supposed to write "I can't" on a piece of paper along with something we can't do and then bury it in a hole.
Mike: I can't believe they're doing this crap. You know who's not burying words? The Chinese.
Quote from Brick
Mike: I'm gonna call and invite over a bunch of her friends.
Brick: Oh, no! I can't do small talk! Oh, I should have put that.
Axl: Yeah.
Mike: Come on, guys. I want to do this. We got some extra money from the diapers, so let's do something nice for her. You know, we really got our asses handed to us for Mother's Day. So if we can pull this off, she'd never see it coming.
Brick: Wait, so, all we have to do is be better than Mother's Day? Which one are we talking about? Yellow pants, expired gift card, or loose change in a baggie?
Mike: Somehow, we got to top all of those.
Quote from Brick
Brick: [to Ron Donahue] You know, I always thought I couldn't do small talk, but now I'm gonna try. My mother's 50th birthday brings up thoughts of the fleeting nature of time and my own ultimate demise. Oh, but look who I'm talking to. You're even older than my mom. This must be on your mind all the time.
