The problem I see with throwing your shoes at people is you only get two shots.

It was an idea. I don't know. Who knows where they fucking come from. Isaac Newton invented gravity cause some asshole hit him in the head with an apple.
-Christopher Moltisanti
Or maybe he's just a fucking idiot. Historically, that's been the case.
-Tony Soprano
All religions take care to silence or to execute those who question them (and I choose to regard this recurrent tendency as a sign of their weakness rather than their strength).
-Hitchens
The future to me is utterly unattractive.
-Churchill to his Mother (circa 1896)
The only item in Putin's geopolitical agenda is high oil prices. That's how his regime survives in Russia. That's why he is always playing a game of keeping the tension high, especially in the Middle East.

well, there are a number of things about (aboot–gotta start practicin’) that film, but mainly it’s the cute mechanical gopher and Kenny Login’s music.

Damn, Dr.D… did you wake up on the wrong side of the 80’s or something? Caddyshack is one of the greatest comedies of all time.
“mainly it’s the cute mechanical gopher and Kenny Login’s music”
Come on. What you mean is that that was the only gimmicky aspect of the film. The rest of it, timeless. Even the languid pace is to be savored. I could go on… I mean it’s no Apocalypse Now, but Caddyshack is a serious, skillfully crafted comedy (volitional and nuanced in its heavy handedness), including virtuosic performances from a cast of legends.
You may now return to your regularly scheduled Anglosphere financial world shaking and quaking and the unrelenting dumbfuckery of the presidential campaigns.

Relax Holmes, it’s one of my favorites. It had an all-star cast of my favorite comedians, and I really did like the Logins music and the damn gopher gimmick. It was major corn, and I love that stuff.
How about the priest scene where he finally has a great game, sinks a hole-in-one on 18, thanks the Lord, and is then struck by lightening after proclaiming it’s the best day of his life? Priceless.
I’ve probably seen that film about 12 times.

Don’t forget the parental advice…
“you take drugs?”
“yeah, every day”
