It's that time of year again, droves of automaton consumers swarming the malls....AND....time for multiple airings of my favorite christmas movie:

A Christmas Story!



I love the way this movie captures the anticipation of a kid who fights all odds to get the Christmas gift of his dreams, it's a classic! I know I'm not the only one who loves this movie (I think we did this thread last year or the year before!).

So, let 'em rip. What are your favorite "A Christmas Story" quotes?

One of the best movies ever!!!

"now, I've heard my dad use that word a million times, he worked in profanity like other artists work in clay or oil, a true master"

or, the prelude to that.. "ohhhh fudge, only I didn't say fudge, I used the F - - - word"

Hands down the best quote IMO:

"We plunged into the cornucopia quivering with desire and the ecstasy of unbridled avarice."
