Yes! That one. 

"Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries" I say that to MH all the time. 

"On second thought, let's not go to Camelot. 'Tis a silly place." Anytime we decide NOT to go somewhere. MH probably hates it more because of the references he doesn't get.

Funny story about Fault in Our Stars. I read the book and thought that it was kind of overrated, but wanted to watch the movie. I am a bad flier, so I take prescription drugs while on a plane. On our way from east coast to west coast, they passed out the little screens and my husband and I decided to watch The Fault in Our Stars. Well it seemed that there were a lot of people that also wanted to watch the movie, because everyone around us was watching the movie. Since I was on the drugs, I remember knowing that I watched the movie, but couldn't really tell you anything about the actual movie. However, I remember ALL of the ladies surrounding us, crying their eyes out. It was like a plane full of emotional women.
