Quotables!

{Talking about how we buy books then take forever to read them}
Talhia:  "It's just a graveyard of books."  
Lindsay (laughing):  "Wow, that was the saddest thing ever!"
Talhia.  "It's true.  They're all like little tombstones, full of a story that I don't know anything about... maybe someday I'll decide to read one and it'll be like Lazarus!" lol

"You don't understand - these people are like mah family!" ~Drunk girl on the phone with her boyfriend in the back of the minivan Lindsay was driving - she said she and Danielle got totally cracked up by that comment!
{Their flight from Dallas to Tulsa was delayed then cancelled, so she called to rent a car.  The aiport was running out of cars and told an older couple in line in front of her that they had nothing for them bc they had no reservation. :(  Then they gave Lindsay a rental minivan because it was all they had left.  So she offered the older couple (Dale and Becky) a ride, as well as two girls she'd met at a restaurant while their flight was delayed (Danielle and the drunk girl). lol  No one but the couple knew each other before the road trip. Hearing her tell the whole story was hilarious!} :)

Lindsay and baby Nolan, aka "Nolar Bear," at our group meeting at Panera! :)

{Talking about starting BibleX}
Talhia:  "Our group name is Without Borders."
Lindsay:  "Is without one or two words?"
All:  "One!"
Lindsay:  "Uh-oh, I think I just created a new group with that same name!!"
Linda:  "Umm, you spelled 'borders' wrong."
{So now there's a new group with zero members called "Without Boarders." LOL}

{I switched to U-Verse, which I keep calling Youversion, and had to call and cancel Cox. :(  I was dreading the call from the day I decided to switch...}
Bullying Cox Rep:  "I'll tell you right now we can knock $50 off your monthly bill for a year.  Would you consider working with us?"
Me:  "No; I'm sorry."
Cox:  "Did you even bother calling to see if we could change the price or match their service?"
Me:  "Nooo, I didn't."
Cox:  "So what have we done wrong, Lindsey, that after seven years of service you just leave without even a phone call to try to work with us?  I'm just trying to figure out what we've done wrong here.  Have you been somehow dissatisfied with your service?"
Me (laughing nervously):  No.  I'm sorry, but I just need to cancel.  They're literally coming to install U-Verse today."
Cox:  "Okay, if that's what you want.  But I would request that you discontinue laughing at me.  I take my job very seriously, and your laughter is very rude.  When you figure out that they're not at all who they say they are, we'll be glad to have you back."
{Ahhh, can I crawl into a hole now?  SO AWKWARD!  I shan't be going back to them any time soon.}

{On his recent conversation with a musician -- after unknowingly talking to Justin Bieber through an entire flight...}
Jeff:  "I went ahead and asked if he was famous, just in case." :)

"Whenever I hear Kevin Durant talk, he reminds me of Tall Kyle."  ~Me
{...everyone either laughing or giving me a confused look...}
"I think you should quote yourself on that."  ~Karli

Casey's FB status:
{Cozy night in at the Smith house}
Casey:  "I wonder what the temperature is outside?"
Dad:  "Here, I'll look it up" {types on computer}
Mom:  "How? ...Does the computer know how cold it is if the computer isn't even outside...???"
Casey & Dad:  {blink,blink,blink}

{Discussing the gate code}
Me:  "It's hashtag0423."
Laura: "Did you just say hashtag instead of pound!?  Wooooow, that's a sign of the times."
Me:  "I didn't even think about it - it just came out naturally."
Laura:  "I call status-ing that!" lol

Me to Laura:  "I kind of hate to admit it after our earlier conversation, but I was totally that girl who cried at the end of a Spider-Man movie tonight. In my defense, Andrew Garfield is about 1,000 times more adorable and endearing than Toby Maguire, and it's hard to watch him be sad."  (True story.)

"Everyone is saying YOLO (you only live once). Jesus proved that saying wrong 2000 years ago haha he said YOLO.....sike! Happy Easter to all!"  ~Michael's Easter FB status - lol

"The art of the sale is all about what you leave out: “'83 classic wagon” -- tough to find parts -- “They don’t make ‘em like this anymore.” -- for legal reasons -- “Enjoyed for many years by one happy family.” -- of raccoons!" ~Phil Dunphy

"I feel like the success of Subway's "Flatizza" will be completely dependent on no one having heard of pizza."  ~Jon Acuff :)

Bethany (personal trainer): "Harper, I am going to the grocery store. Do you need anything?"
Harper (her toddler daugher): "Umm, yes! I need chocolate chips, candy bars, M&Ms, and a sucker!" =)

"Way to have a permanent memory of someone, you fool!"  ~Chet, on L.D.'s tattoos by her ex

Me:  "I really think I'd enjoy being a teacher."
Chet:  "Well, if you manage your classroom the way you do your puppies, we'll have a problem."
{Because I think they're too cute to punish sometimes. lol}

{Studying the ducks at Crescent Park}
Me:  "Aww, the babies are so cute!"
Laura:  "Mmm, looks like it's a single parent, so they're probably struggling." lol
{We later decided another duck was the divorced dad who was observing his kids from afar.} :)

{Talking about The Middle}
Chet:  "I'm telling you, that show is a glimpse into my childhood. Just imagine that as a single wide trailer and put my face in there!"

{At JEM's fantastic dinner + Thunder watch party!}
Jeff:  "That robin in the tree is upset - she keeps chirping because her babies are in the nest down here."
Laura:  "Well, we can go inside now anyway."
Chet (yelling to the bird):  "Or maybe stop being a coward and come down and protect your children!" lol

Chettles:  "All right, Mossy, the Wilson's are departing."
JEM:  "Make it a great night!!"

Laura:  "Lindsey doesn't understand why no one is going for the chocolate on chocolate cupcakes... it's a lot of chocolate!"
Me:  "My point exactly!!"

"Chet came to this party for one reason only: To get his back popped by John!" ~Evan :)

"You know, Nick and John and I used to have a really good threesome..." ~the innocent beginning of JEM's wedding toast to a friend lol

JEM:  "I still remember when Kevin and I realized John and Krista were on their first date!"
Kevin:  "Yeah, it was at a wedding... John and Krista were at the couples table while me and Jeff were stuck at the table of misfit toys!" LOL
