Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

... you can learn from:

Clueless (1995)


Cher Horowitz: The Haitians need to come to America. But some people are all, "What about the strain on our resources?" Well it's like when I had this garden party for my father's birthday, right? I put R.S.V.P. 'cause it was a sit-down dinner. But some people came that like did not R.S.V.P. I was like totally buggin'. I had to haul ass to the kitchen, redistribute the food, and squish in extra place settings. But by the end of the day it was, like, the more the merrier. And so if the government could just get to the kitchen, rearrange some things, we could certainly party with the Haitians. And in conclusion may I please remind you it does not say R.S.V.P. on the Statue of Liberty. Thank you very much.

I effing LOVE Clueless.

Apparently pronouncing Haitians "Hate-ee-ans" wasn't in the script- that was all Silverstone, all genuine mispronunciation.

Brittany Murphy rocks this movie!

I first became obsessed with Clueless in elementary school and completely ruined my conception of high school. I was so surprised that you couldn't sit in class talking on your cell phone all hour instead of paying attention to the teacher.

Why isn't Cher Horowitz president? Her foreign policy makes more sense than Bush's.

"Hopefully not sporadically!"

My sister and I regularly drop that gem into everyday conversations. As much as I love Cher, Brittany Murphy is just perfect in this movie. "Rollin' with the homies..."

Is it odd that I think she made her case quite well?!
