Party on! Excellent!

There are several movies on a list entitled “haven’t seen it yet”. Being sheltered, I have not seen many popular movies that most people have such as: E.T, The Never Ending Story, Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters…
So  I started with WAYNES WORLD! (No Way! WAY!) I have to say this had to be one of the funniest movies I had ever seen and I’m so sad I missed out until now. I also couldn’t believe how many jokes I now understand but now too late to tell. After I watched the movie I couldn’t stop thinking about all the funny things said in the movie like:
"Do I frighten you?" "No." "Do you want me to?"
“Garth, marriage is punishment for shoplifting in some countries.”
"A gun rack? A gun rack. I don't even own a gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack."
"I once thought I had mono for a whole year. Turns out I was just really bored."  
I was talking to my Mom the next day, telling her how I’d seen Wayne’s World and how funny it was. She laughed and told me how she thought I had seen the movie and she didn’t really understand my bewilderment with the movie. So I thought I could impress her… I told her how in the movie they say
“That’s what she said.”
And how I always thought this came from the show The Office (which I have seen). She started laughing and replied “Everyone knows that it came from Wayne’s World!” One would assume that a sheltered person is bred by sheltered parents, but no. Even my Mom knew about “That’s what she said.”
Wayne’s World inspired me to keep watching more movies that I hadn’t seen growing up and to ensure that I kept up to date with current movies- I don’t want to miss out on any more jokes!
