"How Did You and Mom Decide to Start a Family, Dad?"


(Paraphrased)

Adult son: How did you and mom decide to start a family, dad? How'd I get here?
Elderly father: Well, hell, I liked to screw , and your mother was raised Catholic. I figured if we screwed enough, we'd likely end up with a couple of kids. And that's what happened.

Some "family talks" can be very illuminating!

Second place:

Adult son: Why didn't you divorce mom?
Elderly father: What...and just end up with another woman giving me sht?

That's one of my three favorite scenes from the movie. The other two are when Aunt Betty confronts Dave and Ross for some of Woody's "winnings". Cracks me up when Dave tells his mom "Aunt Betty and her henchmen are asking for reparations". And the scene in the car after the boys steal the air compressor and Woody tells them that wasn't Ed Pegram's house.
