DINGO wins because it is a pull quote from an Aussie trial that became an American catchphrase. And how often does that happen?

― latebloomer, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:05 (eighteen years ago)

Abbott, it became an American catchphrase after Merryl Streep said it in A Cry in the Dark and then Elaine said it on Seinfeld.

― chaki, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:05 (eighteen years ago)

based on a real aussie trial

― tehresa, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:07 (eighteen years ago)

But that is its SOURCE. Some "Cry in the Dark" writer read the NEWS.

― Abbott, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:07 (eighteen years ago)

the milkshake quote is real, too, from some oilman back in the day during a congressional hearing.

― Mr. Que, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:08 (eighteen years ago)

i know it was based on a trial because it was a famous trial but thanks guys! also: say hello to my little friend.

― chaki, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:10 (eighteen years ago)

I'm sorry, chaki, it is a bad habit of mine to always try to turn the topic of conversation to famous trials from all western nations.

― Abbott, Sunday, 24 February 2008 23:14 (eighteen years ago)

that'll do, pig. that'll do.

Now I'm awfully glad you asked me that, Lloyd, because I just happen to have two twenties and two tens right here in my wallet. I was afraid they were going to be there until next April. So here's what: you slip me a bottle of Bourbon, a glass and some ice. You can do that, can't you, Lloyd? You're not too busy, are you?

this one should have been a catchphrase.

way to ruin a "milkshake"-free Oscars, fucker

― Dr Morbius, Monday, 25 February 2008 14:06 (eighteen years ago)

My favorite thing about the milkshake line is that if you can't quite do a good Sean Connery impression, you can just add more up-and-down swoops to it and it becomes a great Plainview.

This thread succeeding only at making me want a milkshake.

― Laurel, Monday, 25 February 2008 18:26 (eighteen years ago)

DDL was on Charlie Rose talking about how he studied contemporary recordings from Fond du Lac to work on his accent -- perhaps early-20th-cent Fond du Lac was populated entirely by actors

― nabisco, Monday, 25 February 2008 18:29 (eighteen years ago)

i think i'll have an oatmeal milkshake tonight.

― chicago kevin, Monday, 25 February 2008 18:32 (eighteen years ago)

Paul Dano wisely did the same, only with security tapes from Hot Topic

― nabisco, Monday, 25 February 2008 18:33 (eighteen years ago)

John Huston was from Fond du Lac?

― jaymc, Monday, 25 February 2008 18:49 (eighteen years ago)

Everything traces back to Fond du Lac. Cradle of civilization, earliest known human remains, etc. -- Fond du Lac

Blood director Paul Thomas Anderson...professed to be “puzzled” by the line’s popularity. And it’s no wonder, since he confessed to having copied it verbatim from a volume of testimony taken during the Teapot Dome scandal.
