NT - ACA Humor

When I read the online articles in regards to the Affordable Care Act, I always look at the comments people post just to get a sense of what other folks are experiencing all around the country.

The best one so far, they quoted the famous Nancy Pelosi statement about passing it before we could find out what's in it.  A Doctor commented and I quote:  That's what I would call a stool sample."

EXACTLY.

What I say about every day:  "I don't think affordable means what they think it means."  Then there is some cursing and never mind.

[Pacun]

My cursing also starts very politely:"I didn't vote for him neither during election nor re-election." Then I go off and then I end it with a "never mind".

Do you say that with an Inigo Montoya accent?

I'm going to say no, but I will google and see who that is later.  Is she related to Fist of Death?

Inigo Montoya in "The Princess Bride" where Vizzini (the villain) keeps saying, "Inconceivable!" but everything he says is inconceivable is the next thing that happens.

That word

Catherine beat me to the explanation and even included video. Great book, and the movie was actually just as good. IMHO.

I *never* get tired of watching that movie.  The very first scene where Inigo shows up (at the river side) he is actually a printed cutout!  If you look closely, you can see the photographic shine.  He wasn't available that day and he's only in the shot for a couple of seconds.

My boys favorite movie, the third time they watched it, Don and I watched it with them, I laughed so much I hurt!  I've watched it multiple times since, but I still love it.  Rita, you must watch it.  The famous line, often used in various memes today, repeated multiple times in the movie  "I don't think _______ means what you think it means."   

[Catherine]

"You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.  The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Asia."  

Another exquisite line.

And the BEST sword fight ever on camera.  They trained six hours a day for weeks with Olympic coaches developing it.
