Sometimes I think my favourite Steel Magnolias line is:
“The only thing that separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorize”.
But mostly I’m pretty sure it’s:
“I’m not crazy, I’ve just been a very bad mood for the last 40 years”.

The story so far
I'm from Adelaide, but I'm living in Abu Dhabi right now. One day, I saw a gold leaf four wheel drive. It made me cry.

Ouiser Boudreax is my hero.
Great script. A little too soapy but worth watching a lot. How about…
Oh! He’s a real gentleman! I bet he takes the dishes out of the sink before he PEES in it!
Drum: Ouiser you look like hammered shit.
Ouiser Boudreaux: Don’t you talk to me like that!
Drum: Oh,I’m sorry you look like regular shit.
I’ve often wondered why I forgive it for being so soapy and cheesy (and for having Julia Roberts). But I just love it.
I’ve just watched your grumpy video. I loved it! It was so nice to see and hear you again; it reminded me so much of your story about the dead librarian.
What a wo nderful room.
yes, that’s what the mister said, ‘Gee the room looks good’.
Wish we were back in Edinburgh this year.
The line I’ll never forget is ‘I will not let mah own personal tragedy interfere with mah abiliteh to do good hay-uh.’
that’s it…I’m going to see if I can download it and watch it this weekend…
i quote that olympia dukakis quote about the accessorising ALL THE TIME.
I have never seen this film but those lines are fabulous, might have to hire it this weekend!
I can’t believes you deleted the personal trainer prank!
‘larious!
actually, I can’t work out what happened to that…it happened once before too. And I’m too lazy to write it again.
Never watched it, but I do know one thing about it. Apparently it’s got a red velvet cake in the shape of an armadillo, so it can’t be all bad.
yes, the armadillo cake is quite something. It’s got grey icing (should I be writing spoiler alert on this?)
HEH. I must see it again too.
Julia is also bearable in Pret-A-Porter, but that’s because of her director, and the person she shares the hotel room with.
I do love that quote about personal tragedy. I love them all.
It had the makings of a fine comedy about it.
That is my all-time favourite quote too!
I loved that film and willingly let it suck me right into howling.
Here is the motherlode of favourite lines and my money is on
