Time for the quarterly Fargo "favorite quote" thread.

Mine, "The heck do ya mean?" by Jerry Lundegaard

I love that movie.

:rofl:

enjoy. "You are a smooth smoothie, you know."

...and this little guy's drinkin' and he says, 'So where can a guy find some action - I'm goin' crazy down there at the lake.' And I says, 'What kinda action?' and he says, 'Woman action, what do I look like,' And I says 'Well, what do I look like, I don't arrange that kinda thing,' and he says, 'I'm going crazy out at the lake' and I says, 'Well, this ain't that kinda place.'

Uh-huh...

So he says, 'So I get it, so you think I'm some kinda jerk for askin',' only he doesn't use the word jerk.

I unnerstand...

And then he calls me a jerk and says the last guy who thought he was a jerk was dead now. So I don't say nothin' and he says, 'What do ya think about that?' So I says, 'Well, that don't sound like too good a deal for him then.'

Ya got that right.

And he says, 'Yah, that guy's dead and I don't mean a old age.' And then he says, 'Geez, I'm goin' crazy out there at the lake.'

White Bear Lake?

Well, Ecklund & Swedlin's, that's closer ta Moose Lake, so I made that assumption.

Oh sure.

So, ya know, he's drinkin', so I don't think a whole great deal of it, but Mrs. Mohra heard about the homicides out here and she thought I should call it in... So I called it in... End a story.

What'd this guy look like anyways?

Oh, kind of a little guy, sorta funny lookin'.

Uh-huh - in what way?

Just a general way...

Okay, well, thanks a bunch, Mr. Mohra. You're right, it's probably nothin', but thanks for callin' her in.

Oh sure... (looks up at sky) They say she's gonna turn cold tomorrow...

Do you gys really talk like that?

:-)

I use this all the time and people never get it and get all pissed and think I'm making fun of 'em. Where's the culture anymore....

"There's more to life than money, don't you know that? And its such a beautiful day..." Said as police vehicles emerge from the white-out.
