You left the most important word off the end of that quote But I suppose you don’t want any of the children reporting you so I get it.

A very loose hockey reference (not really of course but still…):

It is said the people are revolting
You said it. They stink on ice.

[SRV1990]

And you look like a bucket of [shirt]!!

LMAO....!

Mel Brooks can make you laugh at things that no one else can make you laugh at.

Oooh…that’s a tough one. Mine will be a lot different than other, but I’d go:

Blazing Saddles
Spaceballs
Young Frankenstein
History of the World Part 1

Speaking of Spaceballs, while most look to the Star Wars/Wizard of Oz references, the plot almost exactly matches 1934’s It happened one night.
