Because it's Thursday and all, you're going to indulge me and play this little Name That Movie game*. Really, you are.

E-mail me your answers, and for all of you who get at least one movie correct, I'll throw your name into a pot or a shoe or something and send the winner a prize that he/she may or may not want. How's that for motivation?

{Tip: And if you get all of them correct, I will totally know that you cheated and googled the quotes, so at least mess up one, okay?}

Here we go.

5. You wasted $150,000 on an education you coulda got for a buck fifty in late charges at the public library.

Sometimes I wish I had never met you. Because then I could go to sleep at night not knowing there was someone like you out there.

Every day I come by your house and I pick you up. And we go out. We have a few drinks, and a few laughs, and it's great. But you know what the best part of my day is? For about ten seconds, from when I pull up to the curb and when I get to your door, cause I think, maybe I'll get up there and I'll knock on the door and you won't be there. No goodbye. No see you later. No nothing. You just left. I don't know much, but I know that.
