Where Has This Line Been All My Life? Vol. 1
June 6th, 2006
From Straight Talk, the 1992 Dolly Parton “vehicle.”
Dolly: Why are they holding a cocktail party at the aquarium? [emphasis added to “Why” because she said it like “Wahhh” and this made it seem more dramatic. Oh, Southerners.]
Alan: Because rich people like to dress up and be seen in strange places.
That sounds like something you’d say to a child — a throwaway explanation just to make her shut up and quit asking you such silly questions. But it’s actually true! I love it.
