19. Other: Janice
I love whenever someone yells QUIET!!!, everyone stops talking but her, and she continues her conversation by saying something random and borderline inappropriate.

"So I said, 'Look, buddy, I'm not taking my clothes off for anybody, even if it is ar-tis-tic.'"

I f*cking love her! :rofl:

44. I asked a friend to help me with my translation in a letter to Germany a few years ago...
and he told me that German was really boring, so he translated it into "Swedish Chef" instead.

Every other word was "hirty flirty schnipp schnipp!" I about peed myself laughing.

Although he doesn't actually put the pasta in the pot, it does kick his ass.

31. Burt.
Pessimistic depressives get so little exposure on tv.

Oscar the Grouch is all mouth. Burt is the true patron saint of curmugeons.
