Axl Quote #1059
Quote from Axl in Sorry Not Sorry
Mike: Unless somebody's pregnant or failing out of school, we got stuff to do.
Axl: Oh, someone's failing, all right. But it's in the school of parenting.
Sue: Mm-hmm.
Axl: Please sit. [Mike sighs]
Sue: [clears throat] Here's the thing... Brick reached out to us because he's upset about some of the things that have been going on around here.
Axl: And after hearing his cries for help, Sue and I felt we had no choice but to come home and speak on his behalf.
Frankie: Speak on his behalf about what?
Axl: You two... the fighting, the bickering, the constant barbs at each other's expense.
Sue: The eye rolling, the rude hand gestures behind each others' backs. I hear the term "crazy woman" was used?
Brick: It was actually "ridiculous woman."
Sue: Thank you, Brick. I was also informed that Mom called Dad a dummy and Dad shook a mop in front of Mom's face.
Axl: I believe what I learned in church was there are better ways to express oneself than mop-shaking and name-calling.

Quote from Brick
Axl: Ice cream sandwiches?
Brick: You didn't tell me I was gonna talk.
Sue: We all agreed on Florida, Brick. All you had to say was "Florida."
Brick: Well, I'm sorry. I was thinking about Florida, and I was on the beach petting Hemingway's cats, and it was hot. And I thought how nice it would be to have an ice cream sandwich.
Sue: Yeah, but why would you ask for something you can just go to the freezer and take?
Brick: I thought you had to ask to have an ice cream sandwich.
Axl & Sue: No!
Brick: Really?!
Quote from Mike
Brick: I can't believe this is happening. You know how hard it was to write a five-page paper on the Louisiana Purchase using a computer that doesn't have the letter "L"?
Mike: All right. I did it. And the handle snapped off in my hand.
Frankie: Don't just stand there. Help us. Brick can't get his homework on the website.
Mike: Bigger fish to fry right now, Frankie. Just print it out and hand it in to the teacher tomorrow.
Frankie: They don't let them hand it in, they have to upload it to Cyberdesk.
Mike: When I was a kid, we didn't have computers. Nobody had computers. All we had were pencils and paper and we all turned out fine.
Frankie: Save your stories for the campfire, Grandpa. Right now I'm trying to make sure our son doesn't fail history.
Quote from Frankie
Frankie: You know, when you think of it, most of our fights are because of them. Remember last week, you got mad at me 'cause Sue guilted me into going to her college and bringing up her "It's Kitten Time Somewhere" poster?
Mike: How 'bout the time Brick swallowed all that Jell-O powder? We practically went 12 rounds 'cause you wanted to take him to the emergency room, and I said it's gonna be Sue's $300 fart all over again.
Frankie: I mean, if it weren't for those kids, we'd be the happiest couple in town.
Mike: And where do they get off coming into our house and telling us how to parent?
Frankie: Yeah. And then we end up apologizing to them.
Mike: You know, when we were kids, you didn't tell your parents what they were doing wrong. You know what you did? You ate your vegetables.
Frankie: I have a good mind to buy vegetables and make those kids eat them.
Mike: Oh, we're gonna do a lot more than that.
