[QUOTE="Jimmy Todd, post: 350809, member: 3926"] Several 198Os prime time soap characters, e.g JR, Abby, Angela, Greg and Alexis, have made some memorable comments and retorts. Has anyone ever actually used one in real life. I just did. There was a work related issue involving our new contract. I used JR's line to Kristin, "It takes brains to know when to be scared. Now's the time to be scared." I prefaced it by saying, "A wise man from the 1980s once said..." However, I omitted the part, "...and since brains are in short supply around here..." I considered including it, but thought it would be seen as too hostile and distract from my overall point. [/QUOTE]
