Eight bosses, Bob. And Jess, he’s got Anniston’s ankle in one hand, and a coffee cup in the other. MMYeah, that’s greaaat…

TomH: the convo occurs in Flinger’s, next to Johanna’s workplace Chotchkie’s (or however you spell it).

New Q: In Peter’s nightmare, what is Bill Lumbergh holding in his hand when he’s having sex with Johanna?

90% for me :) Lovelovelove this movie, even though I work in a title insurance office and it is nothing like the office in the movie.

90% I can’t believe there are people out there that don’t love this movie. Although one of the people I know who doesn’t like this movie has been a housewife for most of her life so . . .yeah.

They went to Flingers for their first date.

Next question: How many bosses does Peter have?

frodopal …then I thought we go to my place and watch “Kung Fu” – Do you like “Kung Fu?”

New Q: In which restaurant does that ‘first date’ conversation occur?

Knowing the squirrels are MARRIED blows my mind. Thanks for another reason to watch this for the 40th time.

Listen to the commentary on the DVD, people: The squirrels are “married” which Mike Judge says is Milton’s euphemism for the fact that they were having sex!

I got 90%; dang that Nina!

TomH: He was selling magazines to help recovering crack addicts. :P

New trivia: How does Peter first interest Johanna in coming home with him?

Love this movie!

p.s. people asked about flair A LOT when I worked at Friday’s, even though this was after it was abolished and the uniforms changed (probably because of Office Space). It took forever to explain to some jackasses that we don’t have flair anymore. No, really.

100%, y’all! I also live in Austin where most of it was filmed, and shortly after seeing this movie worked at both TGI Friday’s and an insurance office *at the same time* so this movie is a favorite. And it comes on Comedy Central about 5 times per week.

Mike D and Julie are right about the squirrels. On the DVD features, Stephen Root says that the squirrels are married. He says he came up with the line, and that to him it represents the core of Milton’s character – that the only way Milton could describe two squirrels having sex is to say they were married.

Also, I’m pretty sure #9 is wrong. Isn’t it “chicks dig dudes with money”?

I hope so. I got 90%, and #9 is the only question I missed.

I need to find a new movie.

9 out of 10, boooyah!

I always thought that the squirrels were married…because I can imagine him making up a little squirrel life for them.

I got 8 out of 10. Yyyyeah, I think I’m going to have to go home and watch that movie again.
