General TE tips

Remember that scene in The Wizard of Oz, early in the movie, where Margaret Hamilton (soon to be the Wicked Witch), tells Dorothy and her family that she's going to get an order to have Toto put down? Auntie Em says, "So and so (I can't remember her pre-witch name), if I weren't a good Christian woman, I'd tell you just what I think of you!" I think of that sometimes. Sort of a predecessor to V's version of "whatever".

Elmira Gulch!

I love The Wizard of Oz. It's one of my three favorite movies - the other two being Gone with the Wind. I'd swoon for Rhett Butler. :D And Aliens, which I think is funny, romantic and scary. I think after Thom and Rhett, Michael Biehn is pretty sexy.

You gotta do "whatever" with the handsign - your hands forming a "W" - What-EVER!. Petitepois has customized it to combine with the "L" handsign at your forehead - "What-EVER, Loser!"

Oh man, my first major media crush after reading the book as a 5th grader (and 7th, and 9th, etc.). Last year I almost died laughing (to myself) when my 15 yo niece bought herself a DVD copy of GWTW and got her hands on a life-size cutout of Clark Gable as Rhett for her bedroom! I guess some crushes are timeless. Love Wizard of Oz, too, and your definition of WhatEVER!

Yep, looks like someone just lost her engrish virginity! :p

OMG - I only looked at the grammar crisis before.

"Cheerful Lion. I will support your happy! This happy is a secret for you and me."

Wow. Speechless. Woof.

Oh my gosh! Engrish. "Lots of enjoy, lots of cry."

I had lots of cry. My husband demanded I get off the internet because I kept sending them to him. Crying.

OMG. I wish I had more time to explore this. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart! I will FIND the time! I will! :p L.

I can't even get to the Grammar Crisis yet. I'm having to dole out the Engrish in bits and pieces. My stomach hurts from laughing.
