Repug in my local Blockbuster tonight.
I went to Blockbuster to get a movie, and i overheard these two young guys and a girl talking. Here is what i heard:

Girl: "Let's get Bowling for Columbine."

Guy #1: "No! I hate everything Michael Moore stands for."

Guy #2: "I don't want to watch some fat guy."

Girl: "What about Monty Python and the Holy Grail?"

Guy #1 "That's such a dumb film!"

Guy #2 "I hate that movie, and i've seen it like 50 times."

I had my movie and i walked away from them to the cashier. I waited on the line (2 people ahead of me) and they came up behind me to get on line. I sneaked a peek at what they decided to rent....It was "The Hot Chick!" LOL!

"I hate that movie, and i've seen it like 50 times."

I hate that movie but I keep renting it.
or
I hate that movie but I'm too dumb to change the channel when it comes on.
or
I hate that movie but I'm too dumb to find something else to do when it comes on.

:D

5. How does someone hate Holy Grail?
Then again, this guy probably believes that state-sanctioned murder is a great idea while it is wrong for a women to control her own body.

9. I dont know, but then again
maybe they are afraid of the killer rabbit. Or the killer knights of the round table! What about the knight that keeps on fighting with no limbs!

Don't know how someone would not get a good laugh from Monty Python.

7. My good, close friend is a Repug
Edited on Mon Jul-12-04 11:08 PM by Argumentus
I'm not talking a normal, misguided Republican -- I mean a guy whose read everything PNAC ever released and thinks it's a damn good idea.

One of the reasons we're friends -- aside from our mutual interest in (arguing) politics -- is our mutual love of British comedy, especially MP.

Those guys in Blockbuster must be some kind of monsters.

8. I burst my pimples at them!
And call their Rob Schneider-renting request a silly thing! Those tiny-brained wipers of other people's bottoms.

13. Umm do you have any option other than Blockbuster ?
They edit movies to appease the "Family Values"
crowd without notifying the customer on the cover .

Also bigtime GOP contributors .

If you have another option for renting movies
I highly suggest going somewhere other than Blockbuster.

15. I didn't know they are big GOP contributors.
Well, it's not a big deal. I've rented maybe 5 movies from them in the last 5 years.
