He throws it on the floor, steps on it, and the alarm stops. That always cracks me up.

You have to get used to the language they use, like "widges" for penises, "oh go bogs" for "fuck off", stuff like that, but even if you don't catch it all the first time, the movie still stands on its own and the character development is wonderful. There aren't too many newer movies that I would say that about (and yes, it was made in the 90's, but that's still "newer" in the sense I'm talking about).

Unless you are only there for the cheap lunch, then focus is mandatory.

Ikea is a labyrinth and the number of items is overwhelming. When we used to shop there, we would plan to spend half a day wandering about.

But then found the bin of egg timers by accident to troll the store.

Another public practical joke, only this one will get you arrested.



(BTW: My standard response to anyone asking me why I'm doing something is now, "How should I know? I'm not a psychologist.&quot
