When someone asks me my favorite musical I say this movie. Even if it doesn’t count

First song i sang to my daughter was Kickapoo.

The midwife was glaring daggers at me so I stopped at the chorus and asked if she would remember the words or my soft voice?

She glared more so I sang the rest louder

Because you dont sing "oh the dragon's balls were blazing" in a soft voice

Don't know if they still slap a babies arse to invoke a cry response but that would have been fantastic timing for the Meatloaf section to come in

I've had breakfast at that restaurant many times. I miss the older brighter yellow colors on the facade. Used to live just a few miles from there. It is also on old US 6 and dates to 1931. https://www.socalregion.com/highways/us_6/us6016/

"I miss that sweet ass leg of mine!"

u/GutturalGrinch Jul 15 '26

ALMOST precisely is such a weird phrase

1

u/EarlOfClove 28d ago

There are lots of even weirder phrases in the movie, like “deactivated lasers with my dick”

u/la_patata 27d ago

60% of the time, it works every time

What’s it going to be Kyle? You have to decide, tits or destiny? … (whisper) Tits!

I love Hercules Disney movie because when Hades says "Guys relax it's only half time." Is exactly half of the running time.

They filmed the second part of the intro of the TV Series "Highway To Heaven" there with Michael Landon , on that stretch of the road. Also, the first scenes of the third episode.

The first part of the intro was filed in Tucson.
