Snakes on a plane...


This thread is a shout out to DUer RandomKoolZip for introducing me to the phrase "snakes on a plane". I first came across this term here -> http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=4690506#4693166 , and used it recently in a thread here http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x593881 (take a look at the video while you are here). Snakes on a plane, snakes on a plane.

Thanks to Zip for turning me on to snakes on a plane. :toast: peace and low stress

I've come across many sayings for the first time here on DU - mihop, lihop, freeper, bfee, jumping the shark, tweety... What terms have you been introduced to while surfin at DU?

7. Snakes on a m-f plane!
Heard S. Jackson discussing this on Fresh Air, or I would've thought this was some wacky DU in-joke (like Morans). But he said he "would have thought that was cool when he was a kid".

Okay then.

I never heard mihop, lihop before here. Used "jumped the shark" for years, before the term itself did, and I always attributed BFEE to Bartcop.

18. I had a "Snakes on a Plane" panic about an hour ago
I wanted to look up Rachel Blanchard's character name and this is what turned up:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0417148/

!!!!!!

However, thanks to the wonderous hell that is IMDB forums I discovered that the producers have confirmed there will not be a name change and that IMDB is just being evil for no good reason.

20. that movie is going to have the biggest opening weekend EVER
Who wouldn't want to see that movie. it's going to be a freak movie talked about for years, huge opening weekend, good second weekend, falls off completely after that, becomes cult classic. I can't wait to see it!

30. Best phrase of all time!
My brother is a movie geek-he already knew the phrase from the movie boards.

Thanks to DU, we've spent some quality bonding time yelling "Snakes on a Plane" and "There ain't a got-damn thing you can do 'bout it" to each other.

Thanks DU!
