gladys: you get your ass up there! and show me some teeth!

becky: she's skinny, amber...not deaf.

amber: course...i hope i end up a little more like diane sawyer than my mom.

annette: yeah, well, if they ask you to take your top off, get the money first.

(the scene in the trailer with loretta and annette):
annette: all right, thats it, im cuttin ya out and sendin ya home, she's gotta go home...
loretta: what, i'm braggin up your kid here. amber's gonna be the next diane sawyer, ya know.

"Noooo... Loretta called! There's been... AH FIRE!"

[–] Roddenhyzer 20 years ago

Part of it has already been mentioned:

Documentary Guy: "F*ing beauty queens blowing chunks everywhere. I've... I've never seen anything like that before... and I live in LA."

But it's just like some other poster said: The entire movie is a collection of great quotes.

Amber: Loretta, don't ever have kids
Loretta: Aw, God bless you for thinkin I still could.

[–] angel32 20 years ago

Loretta was my absolute favorite.

I got some!

What? Most smartest!

*beep* beauty queens...blowing chunks

Aww *beep* are we on Cops again?

You stupid little retard!!!

Don't worry, that's just code for 'bring me home a pack o' Lucky's.

Too bad it's not a size 10 like Diane Sawyer's...Diane was a bit hippy back then.

Most of my favourites have already been mentioned, including the "beauty queens blowing chunks..." hilarious ... a few more include:

Gladys: "... And can you believe it? They still fit!" (about the pants she sewed)
Loretta: "She had a big ass then, she's got a big ass now!"

Loretta: "Oh, you're cute ... oh, I see you're married"

Doctumentary maker (talking to Beccy): So, um, Brett just got shot in the head."
Beccy: "Well, huntin's dangerous ... Anyway my mom got me this ..."

"USA is A-OK!"

The rest have all been said, lol! I have most of the Gladys ones on my computer as various computer sounds. The USA one is my AIM buddy sign-off sound and it makes me laugh just thinking about it. :-D

"As You Wish"

[–] BettySpaghetti 20 years ago

I don't believe anyone has said this one yet:

"THE SWAN ATE MY BABY!!"

and

"Next one who comes in here without a pack of Luckies dies! SHE DIES!"

But you all have hit the vast majority of my favorites like, "Speak ENGLISH you stupid, little, retard!" and "The woman clung to your tap shoes while flying through the air like a GD lawn dart!" Oh, I just thought of another one: Amber referring to Janelle, "Oh, she's super happy. The blow to her head made her deaf!" And it's not a quote, but one of my all time favorite parts is when Becky is dancing with the Jesus doll. I was still in Catholic school when this movie came out and my friends and I were rolling and this part.

It's best with lots of butter.

I'm going to do a dramatic monologue. Something from Othello... or Soylent Green.
