I'm Your New Moderator. Here Are Some Quotes.
Hey, folks. I'm Talmanes, and I'm your new moderator. Becoming a moderator involved going through the rigorous process of responding to indigoskynet's semi-desperate, open plea for someone to help her out, so I'm sure you'll all agree that I am amazingly qualified for this job. Or something.
Today I have a selection of easy-to-difficult quotes for you guys to answer. These are 3 Point quotes, meaning that answering them means you've got to post up 3 quotes of your own. I'll strike 'em as they're gobbled up. My apologies for any misquotes.
01. Why are you wearing that stupid man suit? -- "Donnie Darko", as guessed by filmbuff
02. You're just a woman with a small brain. With a brain a third the size of us. It's science. -- "Anchorman: the Legend of Ron Burgundy", as guessed by flusterbunny
03. Gentleman 1: General, you are a Buddhist. Perhaps there is some 'middle way' to solve this problem?
Gentleman 2: Float like leaf on river of life. And kill old lady.
05. Is the colonel's underwear a matter of national security? -- "A Few Good Men", as guessed by flusterbunny
06. I-wanna-kill ev-ery-one... Satan-is-good... Satan-is our-pal. -- "The 'Burbs", as guessed by dkphoenix
07. Child: Talk to her, dad. She's a doctor.
Father: Of what? Her first name could be Doctor.
08. I made you. I'm in your blood. You don't go anywhere until I let you go.
09. When my brothers and I played cowboys and Indians, I was always the Chinese railroad worker.
10. You must lash out with every limb, like the octopus who plays the drums. -- "Mystery Men", as guessed by indigoskynet
We also have some Questions Emeritus, which I will repost. As the moderator, I have looked up these quotes and thus know what the proper answers are, so even if their original posters don't see this, I can still say yea or nay to your responses. This means, of course, that I will not be answering any of them -- that would be cheating. These are 2 Point questions, meaning you'll only have to throw down 2 quotes for each one you answer. If any of them survive to the next round, they'll drop to 1 point. Yay, right?
If you answer one of these, make sure you label it -- say "talmanes 01" instead of just "01" (since "01" would be from the main list of 10, dig?). You don't really have to do the LJ tag, but you can if you wanna.
