for the challenge 6 in picspammy.
Shows
Gossip Girl: What's this? Chuck's date and Blair's date are mother and son? And Nate and Blair are exes? And Nate and the mother are in a book club? Now there's a novel plot twist.
Cassie: Have you ever been in love?
Jal: I don't think so.
Cassie: Do you want me to describe it to you?
Jal: Okay.
Cassie: Do you remember when you rode with me in the ambulance after I tried to kill myself?
Jal: Of course.
Cassie: That's what love feels like.
I only started watching this show this fall, which is why all these pictures are from seasons 1-4. I have seen the newest seasons too, but I think the first ones were best. I still love this show, though! I'm in love with Brooke almost as much as I am with Blair.
Peyton: At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes -- all you need is one.
Dean: What are we doing?
Sam: We're hunting a ghost.
Dean: A ghost, exactly. Who does that?
Sam: Us.
Dean: Us, right. And that Sam is exactly why our lives suck. C’mon, we hunt monsters! What the hell? I mean, normal people, they see a monster and they run. But not us, no no no, we search out things that want to kill us! Or eat us! You know who does that? Crazy people! We ... are insane! You know, and then there’s the crappy diner food and the skivvy motel rooms and the truck stop waitress with the bizarre rash. I mean, who wants this life, Sam? Seriously! Do you actually like being stuck in a car with me eight hours a day every single day? I don’t think so! I drive too fast and I listen to the same five albums over and over and over again and I sing along and I’m annoying and I know that. And you…you’re gassy! You eat half a burrito and you get toxic! You know what, you can forget it.
Lafayette: Hey, hooka. How you doing? What are you doing here?
Tara: I work here.
Lafayette: Oh no, the hell you don't.
Tara: Oh yes the hell I do, you ugly bitch!
Lafayette: Shit. Sam must've lost his damned mind because you should not be allowed to work in no situation where you actually have to interact with people.
Tripp: Brian, what a wonderful wedding sermon, so much humanity, so much hope. There really is such a kind person buried deep down inside you. Deep, deep down! Inside you... somewhere!?!
Brian: Thanks dad.
Andrew: Are you blackmailing me into coming to dinner?
Bree: Oh, you don't know the lengths I'd go to for even seating.
Tess: This happiness could not have lasted. It was too much.
Here's the thing: I don't think Heroes would be on this list anymore if it weren't for some amazing characters, such as Sylar & Elle. But both of them got killed (or whatever happened to Sylar?), as did Adam (who was one of my main reasons for watching this show, because, hello, David Anders) so I don't know anymore. There's always Hiro and Ando, sure, who are pretty awesome (quote below proves!) as well, but I hope the plot twists don't get any more weird than they were this season.
Hiro: What are you doing?
Ando: I'm being awesome!
Characters
Blair: But losing my virginity to Chuck Bass? None of my friends will ever understand. I'm ready for my punishment. Whatever you and God think is fair. Flogging, fasting, putting that thing with the teeth around my thigh like Silas.
Priest: How about some food for thought instead? Don't drink, keep your clothes on, try avoiding those who might cause you to stray.
Blair: Oh, I plan to. Thank you, Father. That was very good advice. You don't grant birthday wishes, do you?
Priest: I'm a priest, not a genie.
Blair: Well, the next time you talk to Him, would you ask Him to send my boyfriend back to me?
Blair: C'mon, I mean I had sex with him (Chuck) in the back of a limo.
Chuck: Several times.
Nate: I hooked up with you at wedding when I was her (Blair) date. Once.
Chuck: I'm Chuck Bass.
Jenny: I lied. And I stole and I lost the respect of my family. For what, so I can be like you? You asked me before if it was all worth it. And my answer is, it's not.
Blair: I tried to warn you. There's a price to pay. I always knew a girl like you couldn't afford it.
Jenny: Well, you were right.
Blair: Well, you put up a good fight. For a freshman.
Jenny: Thanks.
Blair: Hope you don't expect a hug.
Jenny: I don't expect anything anymore.
Chris: Jesus, Sid, are you going to tell me what's going on? It's like a fucking episode of The O.C. in here.
Reporter: I'm here with student council president Brooke Davis. Brooke can you put into words how you might be feeling about this tragedy?
Brooke: You should be ashamed of yourself. There are kids inside our school fearing for their lives right now, terrified that someones gonna put a gun in their face and pull the trigger and you want to know how I'm feeling? Our pain is not a commodity for you. It's not a news bite to boost your ratings because tomorrow or the next day or the next week when we go back to school, changed forever by a day that will never leave us where are you gonna be? At the next tragedy thrusting your microphone in the face of the next fractured person asking them how they feel? Lady that is not journalism. You are not contributing anything to society. You are buzzards circling the carnage but you prey on the living. That is how I'm feeling but something tells me you're not gonna air that
Dean: And the only one who person can get me out of this thing is me.
Sam: And me.
Dean: "And me"?!
Sam: What?
Dean: Deep revelation, having a deep moment here. That's what you come back with? "And me"?
Sam: Do you want a poem?
Dean: Moment's gone. Unbelievable.
Ruby: Who the hell do I have to kill to get some french fries around here?
Mr. Mitchell: Is it true you forced Brian Jr. to lie to your wife and pretend he was a Swedish orphan whose parents died in a car accident?
Brian: No.
Mr. Mitchell: No?
Brian: It was a bullet train accident, not a car. Get your facts straight.
Jeremy: Alright Jules, I'm telling you the truth, okay? I'm, I'm Pluto. I'm cold, distant, and alone.
Juliet: Okay, well speaking of planets.
Jeremy: Pluto is not a planet anymore.
Juliet: It will always be a planet to me.
Freddy: God, you're a bitch sometimes.
Karen: I know, its a problem.
Edie: I have a husband now.
Susan: Really? Whose?
Elle: I accidentally set my grandmother's house on fire when I was six. Caused a blackout in four counties in Ohio when I was eight. I spent my ninth birthday in a glass room with an IV of lithium in my arm. I've lived in this building for sixteen years, ever since the shrinks diagnosed me as a sociopath with paranoid delusions - but they were just out to get me because I threatened to kill 'em. I'm 24 years old and I've never gone on a date. Never been on a roller coaster, never been swimming. And now you know everything there is to know about me. I don't have the luxury of being more interesting than that.
Car rental clerk: I should kill you right now - say it was self-defense. I'll be famous - a bona fide hero!
Sylar: I hate heroes.
Relationships
Blair: How do you manage to get out of everything unscathed?
Serena: Because I'm nice. You should try it sometime. C'mon, um, compliment me, tell me my hair looks beautiful.
Blair: But your hair looks disgusting. Did you even shower today?
Chuck: I didn't win.
Blair Then why does it feel like I lost?
Chuck: The reason we can't say those three words to each other isn't because they aren't true.
Blair: Then why?
Chuck: I think we both know, the moment we do, it won't be the start of something, it'll be the end. Think about it, Chuck and Blair going to the movies? Chuck and Blair holding hands?
Blair: We don't have to do those things. We can do the things we like.
Chuck: What we like is this.
Chris: Jal, look at me. I was perfectly happy killing myself. But then you asked me to try. And for the first time in my life it felt like somebody actually gave a shit. That person was worth trying for. And now, I'd make the worlds record biggest sandwich if you asked me to. I'd kick old granny in the tits. I'd fill the rivers with panda pops. I'd...
Jal: Stop.
Chris: I fucked up big time. I'm more than sorry. I love you Jal. You're my whole world.
Nathan: So come on, Hales. Just meet me halfway here?
Haley: Why should I?
Nathan: Because I'm sorry. Because I love you. And because you're looking really hot, standing out here in the rain and I'm thinking, "I have to kiss you."
Haley: Well if you have to.
Sam: Why are you following me?
Ruby: I'm interested in you.
Sam: Why?
Ruby: Because you're tall. I love a tall man!
Sylar: I've been thinking.
Elle: About what?
Sylar: What you said about finding ourselves free of parents - or powers.
Elle: What about it?
Sylar: You were wrong. Nobody ever really changes.
Elle: You did. I saw you.
Sylar: That was temporary. And then I got my powers back. And I understand now that I'm never gonna change. Neither are you, because we're both just damaged goods.
