Miscellaneous signatures, part 1: The nightmare begins

A lot of the time, I find signatures all on their own, like a gem in the middle of the desert. As such, trying to put them into a themed post doesn't work. So what can I do? Miscellaneous posts!

The rules of miscellaneous posts: Ten signatures that may or may not have anything to do with each other will be put up. That's it. Let's go!

From watching French new wave, esp. Clare's Knee, I noticed that men and women could casually touch and embrace. I had been raised in a cold, New England arms-length kind of culture, and I found that very appealing. Since then I've made an effort to open up physically, and it has made me a better person. Also, I learned not to get hung up on teenaged girls' knees. --M. Peachbush, in the "Sergio Leone and the Infield Fly Rule" Summer Quiz, on what he's learned from movies

This is the only film in which Seagal co-starred with Bart the Bear. --Deleted from the "Trivia" section of the Wikipedia article on On Deadly Ground

I'm going to tear off your [bleep] and shove them right up your [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] and then [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] on your [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] with [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] in the [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] and [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] your [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] [bleep] so then you'll have to [bleep] sideways! [bleep] --Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series, Episode 17

Every fanboy's dream: Bring Natalie Portman to your room and show her your robot. --RiffTrax, "Star Wars: Episode 1: The Phantom Menace," sample

I admit it's been a while since I took a history class. What war was it again that we fought the dinosaurs in? --Superdickery

In the end, this movie mostly serves as proof that Keanu Reeves is a pretty smart guy. Who knew? --Ad for "Speed 2"

It's the type of movie that calls itself "Hitchcockian," but the only thing it has in common with the deceased director is their shared lack of a pulse. --Rotten Tomatoes, on "Twisted"


So there you have it. Ten quickie signatures retrieved at semi-random. See you next time!
