Movie quotes

  • (..) You know, the baby stinks. So if it poops, where does it go? Humans are disgusting. Okay, you. Check for poop. Why am I the poop checker? Because returning it is your idea. Because you're small and insignificant And because I'll pound you if you don't. What else? Now, Sid! I mean, my goodness. (..)
