DC: Be Careful What You Wish For

My name is Dawson Leery.
I'm feeling kind of weary.
Today is my birthday.
It all looks a little bleery.
The girl that I cared for,
Left me and ran away,
Straight into the arms of,
a guy that turned out to be gay!
I got the blues!
Yeah. Today I woke up feeling like I was born to lose.
Yeah I got the blues.
Somedays you're born to lose!
Here's my friend Andie, and she's going to sing you a song because she's got the blues.

My name is Andie.
And my brother's the one that's gay.
My other brother died.
And my daddy ran away!
But I'm still Andie.
And my boyfriend makes me randy.
His name is Pacey,
And my mom's gone completely crazy!
Yeah, I've got the blues!

Oh, I've been restless, hopeless and confused.
This girl that I told you about;
she's been on the move.
She's at my surprise party where everyone I know is right now.
And when I show up late they're all gonna have a cow!
Yeah I got the blues.
I swear sometimes we were born to lose!
Andie: No, brother man, we got the blues!
Dawson & Andie: We got the blues!
Sometimes you, you were born to lose.
Ohhh yeah!

For your final question, Miss Potter, please tell us what words of advice you would bestow upon today's youth.

I'd like to tell today's youth that no matter where life takes you, big cities, small towns, you'll inevitably come across small minds. People who think that they're better than you are. People who think that material things, or being pretty or popular automatically makes you a worth while human being. I'd like to tell today's youth that none of these things matter unless you have strength of character, integrity, sense of pride, and if you're lucky enough to have any of these things... don't ever sell them. Don't ever sell out. So when you meet a person for the first time, please don't judge them by their station on life, because, who knows, that person just might end up being your best friend. Thank you.

I heart Malcolm in the Middle

Francis: Is there some scientific way to find out if something is pudding without actually tasting it?

Francis: Is there a scientific way to prove if ice cream can be used as sunscreen?

Dewey: [eating carrot sticks] I don't know what company makes this stuff, but I hate it.

Malcolm: It's weird — I think I'm having a spasm. The muscles in my face keep pulling at my mouth. Oh! I think I'm happy!

Reese: You can't make me take a bath. I'll go outside and roll in the mud, and I'll go to bed that way.

Francis: Dewey, there's a principle I learned in military school. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the guy who can't run fast.

Reese: I know I haven't been everywhere, but I'm pretty sure this is the most boring place on Earth.

Lois: So, this morning Dewey tried to go to school in his underwear, because apparently the baby doesn't like his wardrobe.

Reese: Since she made fun of your name, you just make fun of hers. What's her name?
Dewey: Ragina Tucker.
Reese: Hmm, we'll think of something.

Lois: Hal, this isn't funny. That behavior isn't acceptable.
Hal: You're right. Boys, the next time you drive a golf cart over a catered lunch and into a swimming pool there will be consequences.

Hal: If you try anything, anything, at all, I will be on you like a rainbow on an oil slick.

Lois: You are not a weirdo, you are gifted. And if gifted kids are supposed to square-dance, then you'll do it. Probably teaches you geometry.

Malcolm: I feel like crap and no one understands. Even you. You're supposed to be my friend and you don't even care.
Stevie: And yet... you keep... talking.

Reese: Dewey. I finally found out why everybody's been giving you money. There's this kid who looks just like you and he's been doing chores for everybody. I knew that everybody must have an evil twin.
Dewey: He's my evil twin?
Reese: No, Dewey, this kid's a saint. You're his evil twin.
Dewey: But, I don't want to be an evil twin.
Reese: Dewey, shut up. This thing involves money and an evil twin. We got to find a way to make this pay off... Let's go watch soap operas.

Officer: There's no sign of forced-entry. You don't have any idea how they could have got inside?
Hal: It's a mystery.
Dewey: You left the window open.
Hal: ...Mystery solved!
Officer: What is it you said you're doing here?
Hal: We're watching the cat.
Officer: I don't see a cat.
Hal: We're not doing a very good job.

Lois: What's the matter, Craig?
Craig: What does it say on this jar?
Lois: "Craig."
Craig: Well I'm glad someone around here can read. The jar holds fourteen pickles. I had three yesterday, two for lunch today, and one and a half for snack. And now there are six and a half pickles in this jar. Simple math indicates...
Lois: Are you counting the one in your hand?
Craig: Ok, false alarm.

Malcolm: So, according to your logic, a two-foot fall from a mini-bike is more dangerous than a six-foot fall from a galloping horse?
Lois: That was a long time ago.
Malcolm: Before... gravity?

Reese: Happy thoughts, happy thoughts, puppies, ice cream, fat people falling over.

Hal: Reese, surrounded by six thousand pounds of steel and twenty gallons of explosive fuel? It's like giving a shark a submachine gun!

Lois: Boys, would you leave the room a minute so your father and I can talk?
Dewey: NO!
Lois: Excuse me?
Dewey: I'm not leaving. You guys just chase us out whenever you want without even asking us. I'm getting tired of it. Watching TV is the only thing to do in this house that's actually fun. So you're left with two choices: you can fight somewhere else, or get us a TV for our room.
[Later in the boys' bedroom]
Dewey: There's no reasoning with that woman!

Walkie-talkie: Hey, are those two kids still stuck in the tiger pit?
[Panic washes over the crowd]
Zookeeper: Uh, no, I must be picking up a transmission the zoo down the street!
Hal: Malcolm and Reese?
Lois: Malcolm and Dewey. Reese wouldn't last thirty seconds.

[Francis, Reese, and Malcolm are watching fireworks.]
Reese: How do we know which one is the Komodo 3000?
[Night turns to day for five seconds as the boys stare in silence.]
Malcolm: [shouting] Let's hope that was it!
Francis: [shouting] Did it say when our vision would come back?
Reese: [shouting] Box said two days.
Francis: [shouting] Totally worth it!

[Reese, Malcolm, and Dewey are preparing to go out on ATVs.]
Malcolm: All-terrain... I wonder if that really means ALL terrain.
Reese: They couldn't say it if it wasn't true.
[Later, Dewey's ATV is crashed upside down on a tree, with Dewey hanging from a branch.]
Reese: Okay, so trees aren't terrain. Now we know.

Reese: [singing to the tune of "Amazing Grace"]
Amazing race, how sweet the taste
That saved a wrench for me.
I once was in the lost and found,
Was blind, but found my keys.

Malcolm: We'll be profitable once we sell tree 67.
Reese: Cool. Why don't we just sell that tree first?

[Reese is burning ants with a magnifying glass]
Reese: [to an ant] Looking for a little picnic, huh? Looks like you've come to the wrong place!
Malcolm: There's one on your hand.
Reese: Ha ha! [aims the searing pinpoint of light from magnifying glass at his own hand] You've got a little surprise coming! Stupid ant...

Hal: These are sleeping pills, Dewey. I simply told the doctor I've been up the past few nights, things aren't going well with the wife, afraid I'm going to lose the house... Now don't you worry, son. Those are just lies I told to get prescription drugs.

Hal: So, Dewey, I'm thinking our little community needs a school.
Dewey: Don't need it. Everyone's born smart.
Hal: Aww, that's beautiful, son. It's a utopia.
Dewey: And anyone stupid will be ground up for food.
Hal: Oh. A cannibal utopia. Interesting.

Hal: One man's garbage is another man's anniversary present.

Dewey's thoughts: Everyone likes you better than your brothers. Someday, you're going to be the president of Idaho, and anyone taller than you will be fed to the wolves.

Hal: Dewey, go easy on the orange juice. That stuff doesn't grow on trees - wait, it does. So why is it so damn expensive?

Francis: We might consider trying to reach a compromise.
Otto: Do I look French to you?

Hal: Keys. Where the hell are the keys?
Reese: [Locked in a bass violin case] I've got them, now let's go.

Francis: My friends were going river rafting. You wouldn't believe how jealous they were when they found I was going to be counting shampoo bottles at the Lucky-Aid.
Lois: I'm sorry, Francis, but it's a perfect fit, we needed people and you have no choice.

Reese: Kids like me are dreaming about something like this. We look around the playground, we see normal kid, normal kid, and a kid with a purse. Who do you think's gonna get creamed.
Dewey: Is one of the normal kids fat?
Reese: It doesn't matter. He's gonna be fat every day, but the kid with the purse, he might not wear it again.

Reese: If there's one thing I've learned, it's you can't clear your own name, you can only ruin someone else's.

Reese: Hey, Dad? I have a little situation that maybe you can help me out with. There's this girl who...
Hal: I suggest that you leave her alone before she calls the police on you.
Reese: Okay, thanks.

Hal: Yes, Mr. Jackson, there is a perfectly good reason why I did not come in to work today. Because, I decided that eight hours of joyless, mind-numbing crap just did not sound like much fun. Well, I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree.

Reese: Dewey, do you trust me?
Dewey: No.
Reese: Do you fear me?
Dewey: No.
[pause]
Dewey: Not in the long run.

Reese: Most people go through life unnoticed. Their names are never in the paper; they've got no laws named after them. That's fine for most people, but I want more.

Craig Feldspar: Malcolm, I think you're forgeting the graveyard shift motto: "Who cares?"

Hal: You know those nature shows where a wasp paralyzes a caterpillar, then injects it full of larvae? It stays alive for weeks, completely aware, feeling every little bite as the larvae devour it from the inside. I sat in a cubicle every day envying that caterpillar, cause at least he got to be on TV. I hated that job. I was a crappy employee.

Reese: Guys! I just made a discovery! When you mix blue and yellow, you get an entirely new color! [Holds up a test tube full of green liquid] I'm gonna name it... blellow!

[Malcolm and Reese take turns eating expired food from the refrigerator]
Malcolm: When was the last Christmas we had eggnog?
Reese: I think before Dewey.
[The carton hisses ominously as it is opened]
Malcolm: It's all you, man.
[Reese chugs the eggnog and begins gagging loudly]
Malcolm: [aside] This is a game that has no winners.

Hal: [Bursts into the boys room] Who wants to make 5 bucks?
Malcolm: How?
Lois: [background] Oh my God!
Malcolm: What did you do?
Hal: Yes or no? No questions asked!
Lois: [background] Oh my GOD!
Malcolm: Make it 10.
Hal: OK. You're a good son.
Lois: [background] OH MY GOD!
Hal: [grabs Malcolm and opens the door] Don't worry honey. I got him!

Lois: [pinches a girl's nostrils shut to get her to let go of Reese] Now, honey, if you want to breathe again, you are going to have to let go of Reese.

Reese: Mom, I think we should go to Aunt Helen's funeral. I mean, she was a good woman. It's the least we can do.
Lois: I don't know what you're trying to pull, Reese, but I don't like it.
Reese: Am I the only one that cared about her?
Lois: Yeah, you're the good one. Enjoy your moment in the sun.

Malcolm: In the wrong hands, these chemicals could make a powerful stink bomb. [looks at his hands] These hands look wrong enough.

News Presenter: [in Dewey's imagination] Boring, boring, boring. I am incredibly boring. Do you know who's boring? Me. Boring, goring, zoring, loring, doring, noring, foring - why haven't you changed the channel yet?

Malcolm: Mom, do you...do you like your parents?
Lois: It doesn't matter how I feel about them. It's not like I can trade them for someone else. You can't pick your parents. You're pretty much stuck with whoever you get.
Malcolm: I know.
Lois: At least I can be grateful that soon they'll be gone.
Malcolm: Back to their own home.
Lois: Yeah...that's what I meant.

Frasier

What's your generation gonna do when we're all gone and there's no one left to blame.

If I get any hotter, I'll set off the sprinklers.

With one hand, the past moves us forward. And with the other it holds us back.

Why should 2 people be happy when 4 can be ecstatic? - Niles on his plan to break up Daphne and his lawyer

If my life gets any worse, I'm phoning hell to ask about their exchange programme.

But if less is more, imagine how much more more would be.

I'd dump her like radioactive waste.

You know it's funny, you get used to having something in your life. It's part of your day, [you] just take it for granted. Then suddenly it's gone and you realize how much it meant to ya.

Have you been listening to me? Well, I tried not to but some of it still got through.

Are you okay? I was afraid with all that sucking up, you might have burst a lung.

I hope you had the presence of mind to bring the presents on mine.

The Mentalist

Shrink when giving the sleeping pills prescription:

Dr. Linus Wagner: Everything you told me is total fiction, isn't it?
Patrick Jane: Yes.
Dr. Linus Wagner: Why? I can tell you're in real pain. Why not tell the truth?
Patrick Jane: The truth is mine.
Dr. Linus Wagner: I hear ya.
Patrick Jane: Thank you.

I heart Bailey

I have five rules. Memorize them. Rule number one, don't bother sucking up. I already hate you, that's not gonna change.

Every intern wants to perform their first surgery. That's not your job. Do you know what your job is? To make your resident happy. Do I look happy? No! Why? Because my interns are whiny. You know what will make me look happy? Having the code team staffed, having the trauma pages answered, having the weekend labs delivered and having someone down in the pit doing the sutures. No one holds a scalpel until I'm so happy I'm Mary Freaking Poppins.

[to the interns] "I've been gone for two weeks. Two weeks and you ran off two residents? I've got people phoning me at home, screaming, telling me my interns are a bunch of Rosemary's Babies. Nobody wants you! Do you think I have time for this? I'm pregnant. I'm supposed to be on bed rest. I'm supposed to be growing a human being. I'm supposed to be calm. Do I look calm? Did I raise you fools to be pariahs?

My heart rate is 110, I’m burning 3,000 calories a day, my legs are swollen, I've got indigestion and gas. Did you know carrying a boy in your uterus means you burn 10 percent more calories than if you had a girl? Guess what I’m carrying. I tried for seven damn years and a month before my fellowship notifications the stick turns blue. Men. From the very beginning they just suck the life right out of you. I’m not leaving. I’m pregnant.

Because I need something more. I know you all have your messy love lives and your secrets and your silliness, but I want more. I need something to hold on to. I need a reason to believe that medicine can do more than stitch you up and send you away. I need to believe that medicine can not only save lives, but change lives! I need... I need... to believe in something the way I used to believe in you all. Sign the papers!

About Derek: Lots of hair. Too many women. Likes elevators and long walks on the beach.

Izzie's probation: No touching patients, no talking to patients, no rolling your eyes at patients, or your superiors.

Oh, you think I got to choose my interns? And I picked you people... 'cause you're all such a surgical dream team? [to Alex] You, you're lazy. [to Izzie] You're whiney. [to Meredith] Butter fingers over there... downright depressing. [to Cristina] You, Yang, you're just annoying. Choosing their own interns!

I'm in the middle of a divorce. People call me the Nazi, and it's not because of my ice blue eyes. I spend 12 hours a day carving people up, and I like it. I have a child and I have no room for casual anything. I'm angry all the time. ... You want lunch, or you wanna show me the scan?

I had 5 interns. 4 of you have been on this table. One of you has cancer, one of you died. You'd better not pull anything funny on me Grey.

Grey's, 6x02: "Goodbye"

Lexie: Grief may be a thing we all have in common, but it looks different on everyone.

Mark: It isn't just death we have to grieve. It's life. It's loss. It's change.

Alex: And when we wonder why it has to suck so much sometimes, has to hurt so bad. The thing we gotta try to remember is that it can turn on a dime.

Izzie: That's how you stay alive. When it hurts so much you can't breathe, that's how you survive.

Derek: By remembering that one day, somehow, impossibly, you won't feel this way. It won't hurt this much.

Bailey: Grief comes in its own time for everyone, in its own way.

Owen: So the best we can do, the best anyone can do, is try for honesty.

Meredith: The really crappy thing, the very worst part of grief is that you can't control it.

Arizona: The best we can do is try to let ourselves feel it when it comes.

Callie: And let it go when we can.

Meredith: The very worst part is that the minute you think you're past it, it starts all over again.

Cristina: And always, every time, it takes your breath away.

Meredith: There are five stages of grief. They look different on all of us, but there are always five.

Alex: Denial.

Derek: Anger.

Bailey: Bargaining.

Lexie: Depression.

Richard: Acceptance.

The meaning of friendship

Watching Boston Legal makes me think about friendships. I know weird, but it truly does. Watching Alan Shore and Denny Crane talk like they do is something I hope to have with someone someday. To have someone in your life whom you can depend on to be there at the end of the day to spend some quality time with, just relax and reflect. Someone you can be yourself with, no explanations needed, no apologies required. Someone who knows you, good and bad, and loves you anyways. Just to know that someone is there. For you.

"Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light."

"To know someone here or there
with whom you can feel
there is understanding
in spite of distances or
thoughts expressed
That can make life a garden."

"A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked."

"Friendship: a building contract you sign with laughter and break with tears."

"Friends are God's way of taking care of us."

"It's the friends you can call up at 4am that matter."

p.s. My blog title "I wanna frand u.." is dedicated to all those people on orkut who know no English, and wanna be my 'frand' :)

Sometimes its just hard, you know..

So my latest obsession in TV series is Grey’s Anatomy. I do this thing where I take some series and watch it obsessively until I finish it.

Here’s my achievement list so far –
Friends
Joey
24
How I Met Your Mother
Scrubs
Sex and the City
House
The O.C.
Seinfeld
Prisonbreak
Lost
Heroes
One tree hill
That 70’s Show
So You Think You Can Dance
Impressive isn’t it? :)

Anyways, back to Grey’s Anatomy. I’ve reached halfway of season 2 in 2 days, and I’m so slow only because that wasn’t the only thing I was doing. Haha.
I somehow tend to think too much. And every situation that happens, I somehow always place myself in the position of the person before blaming him or her for their actions. Like yesterday what really moved and saddened me was when Dr. Derek Shepperd aka Dr. McDreamy had to make a choice between his wife and girlfriend. I know it sounds totally wrong and stuff, but the way it happened was a bit different. His wife cheated on him, with his best friend, and it totally shattered him. So he just left Manhattan and moved to Seattle. At the bar he met Meredith Grey, and they had a one night stand. And then the next day they discovered that she was an intern and he was the attending at the same hospital. And then they both fell for her. While it was extremely wrong of him to not tell her that he was married, I can imagine that a person who was finally happy after so much pain would want to keep it that way, as he was probably trying to block out his past. And then when his wife finally came back, hell broke loose on all of them. He had to choose, between his wife, with whom he had spent “11 Thanksgivings, 11 Birthdays, 11 Christmases” and the girlfriend who he was falling in love with and was so happy with. I mean how do you make a choice like that? And eventually he decided to do the right thing and stay with his wife. And when the first Christmas comes, he has just one explanation for his depression, “it’s the holidays you know”, and Meredith says “yeah, I know”. And when he meets his wife at Joe’s bar and she asks him why he is so sad, “we love Christmas, remember? At least we used to.” And his reply is, “Christmas makes you wanna be with people you love. And I’m not saying this to hurt you, or because I want to leave you, because I don’t.”
“Meredith wasn’t a fling, she wasn’t revenge. I fell in love with her. That doesn’t go away because I decided to stay with you.”

How do you deal with a thing like that?
