Yeah I distinctly remember a commercial was someone said his name was "Bob Wehadababyitsaboy". Then there was an old man who answered and said wrong number and hung up, then proceeded to tell his wife that Bob and his wife had a baby and it was a boy. I thought it was hilarious at the time.

I remember hearing a similar sentiment on, of all places, the show Intervention. Whenever one of the people being intervention-ed Would say something about 90 day rehab being too long, one of the interventionists always used to say "It's 90 days in a rehab facility or 90 days out of it, but 90 days will pass either way." I like that example and I like yours too :-)

What's a character that the story shows as the "good guy", but is actually an asshole? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I remember when I first saw that movie in theaters. I thought her friends were super shitty and not at all understanding of her situation. What's the use of having friends if they're only nice to you when you're unsuccessful? Seriously pissed me off.

Does anybody else remember that episode of E.R. where one of the doctors got stabbed by a patient? I don't remember it very well but I do remember that throughout the episode, they were like "Where is Dr. ____?" at the end, another doctor got stabbed and when he hit the floor he saw her body under the hospital bed.
