BTW, I haven`t watched Gilligan`s Island. I only watched a few episodes about the island where people come and live their dreams.. or nightmares... I don`t remember, the host there was such a little Latino man. What is the name of the series? De plane...de plane! (Tattoo) My dear guests, welcome to Fantasy Island! (Mr. Roarke) How scary is it that I know all of this stuff off the top of my head??? Is it a parody of a commercial about an old lady who used a radio phone to call for help? I remember watching it in 1990s. Hehe...yes, I remember that commercial. The subject matter is of course not funny, but the commercial was so silly that everybody started mimicking the "I've fallen, and I can't get up!" line. www.retrojunk.com/details_commercial/1087/One more commercial to recall When in US in 1990s, I went to a modelling agency to look for a job. I was handsome, I had all my hair on my head, a little moustache under my nose etc etc. In my newly tailored Polish jacket I looked distinguished. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D (guys, I stil have photos from the modelling session). The lady in the agency asked us if we are able to act like a certain woman who cried out loud: I want meat!!! I want meat!!! (or sth like that) in a commercial. Of course, each of our group said yes. Do you remember that commercial?

Guys/gals...this is so weird...I actually looked up that commercial after I found the fallen/can't get up one. I almost posted it earlier! It's for a fast food restaurant called Wendy's that specializes in burgers. Here it is: The commercial was aired a lot, and it made the lady who uttered the "Where's the beef?" line (I think her name was Clara Peller) famous for a while. ;D

Hey, it means the lady was wrong! Now, after deep consideration, I remember she told us: I want meat!!!!
It is not weird. It`s fantastic!
And rich, I suppose. Good for her.

Believe it or not, the catch phrase in this unbelievably annoying commercial became a popular way to greet people for a while! So, should we all start saying "Wassup B?" to you??? ;D ;D ;D

Here's a famous line...er, word... from the animated series "The Simpsons": It's a good word to use when things go wrong since it's just 3 letters. ;D ;D

I don`t know... I realise it is one giant satire at modern society, yet, I can`t take to morons and imbeciles Simpsons are. In the same manner, I have always despised Polish TV comedy series who employed primitive lumpenproletaryat. One of them, I suppose, is called "Świat Kiepskich." I have no idea what the word Doh means and where it came from...

Maybe this will go ahead and make your day... Did any of these Dirty Harry quotes become popular in Poland? Or do you prefer the Schwarzeneggerisms? "Hasta la vista, baby." "I'll be back... " ;D ;D ;D

I have already written a post with famous quotes from Polish films. Here it is again. immortal phrases: Kopernik była kobietą! - Copernicus was a woman! We don`t have your coat and what are you going to do to us!? - Nie mamy pańskiego płaszcza i co pan nam zrobi!? Madam, give me two bears. The read haired and the one with a red hat. BUT I AM EATING NOW! - "Pani da dwa misie.. Tego rudego i tego w czerwonej czapeczce.... JEM PRZECIEZ!!" - You have such strong psyche! - Ale ty masz silną psychikę! Coco jambo and move on! - "Coco Jambo i do przodu" A female is beating me! - Kobieta mnie bije! What a snowfall, butterfly`s leg! And the bus has already been delayed for 15 minutes. Chicken`s feather! - Ale nasypało, motyla noga ! Już od kwadransa nie ma autobusu ! Kurcze pióro ! Darnkess! I can see darkness! - "Ciemność!. Widzę ciemność!" There are no bunkers but it is b itching anyway- BUNKROW NIE MA, ALE I TAK JEST ZAJEBIŚCIE "May the Force be with you" - niech moc będzie z tobą. Kopernik była kobietą! - Copernicus was a woman! In the future, two guys are brought to court to be tried by feminists. The latter claim that it is women who deserve all credit for the progress of civilisation, men were always ignorant lazy bones. One woman cries out: Copernicus was a woman!!!!! At 1.20 minute Darnkess! I can see darkness! - "Ciemność!. Widzę ciemność!" One of these guys cries out after being woken up from hibernation sleep. 0:28 A female is beating me! - Kobieta mnie bije! Two feminist warrior guards make short work of rebellious men: At 2.40 Another famous quote from this film is at 0:53.. It is a secret word which opens the gate... Replay, replay!!!! Two guys watch a match of female teams. After the match there is a traditional swapping of t-shirts. One guys cries out: replay! At 2:00 The best of the film

Gig, you impress me sometimes!! I must ask this question: who are you? ? ;D ;D ;D ;D Perhaps a formal introduction is in order. "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die." You will impress me if you know what movie that is from!

I was behind the Iron Curtain then, not everything could reach us. Besides, 1988 was the year of mass students strikes and the beginning of the Round Table talks. I was busy with more interesting things than some Bride.
