Movie Quote 38 and Crazy Family

Lindsey is learning to deal with Chuck's extended family at a family reunion we had this weekend - weirdos, but you've gotta love 'em! She sat next to one of Chuck's second or third cousins (a teenager) at lunch and he spoke to her with a horrible British accent the whole time. At one point he asked her, "Do you just slip into a British accent when you get comfortable?" She said, "Eh, no, I actually am British." He said, "Oh, well, I tend to adopt the accent of the person I'm speaking to. So, if I am around an Irish person I speak with an Irish accent." She said he then started talking in a profoundly horrible Irish accent. I'm sure she was shuddering! She told Chuck that whenever we want to make fun of her accent it is just fine because the experience could never be as painful as talking to the annoying cousin. What kind of dufus just starts talking in an accent and assumes that the person he is talking to is speaking in a fake accent too? Geez! Poor girl.

Also new on the Lindsey front: She doesn't like Pierce Brosnan. Um, can you say "sacrilege?" And this is a quote from her favorite movie:

Hi I'm Cellulite Sally; look at my huge ba-donkey. Don't forget about me, I'm Backfat Betty. Now who could have said that? Oh yeah, it's Tina the Talking Tummy.

To be fair, I had to look up this quote, but it is from a pretty funny part of the movie. Remember to think like a 19-year old when trying to figure out what her favorite movie would be. Surprisingly, I actually own this movie, but Chuck refuses to watch it. He's such an old man.

No idea on the movie and what a weirdo! The cousin I mean. I am glad Lindsey "Au Pair!" took it in stride.

The answer is White Chicks. So funny in a very juvenile way.
