54. “Get” someone else’s Obscure Movie Reference
Look, the greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist, but, if you can pick up on other people’s film references, you may be able to rival the Devil in sheer “cool”. CAN YOU DIG IT??!!
It may seem Inconceivable!!!, but there is a powerful respect and awe that is formed when two people recognize that they share a common movie lexicon. So powerful, sometimes, that it may go to 11.
I realize that nobody puts Baby in a corner.
I’m not suggesting that all Jedi had was a bunch of muppets.
I never said that I wanted to meet interesting and stimulating people of an ancient culture, and kill them.
But, if you’ll agree that you can’t fight in here, this is the War Room, and that what I love about these high school girls, man, is that I get older and they stay the same age, then I must finish by telling you that I have one simple request, and that is to have sharks with frickin’ laser beams attached to their heads.

Though it might cause others to stare blankly or quickly try to change the subject, if you make a Kids in the Hall reference in my company, I will be your friend forever. Even if I hate everything else about you.
