Time for a post I’ve been meaning to do for a while. I think
it’s a pretty Mormon thing to be into Disney movies. And I’m a big enough of a
Disney geek that at my last job (at the Mission Training Center Bookstore) that
I’m fluent in Disney quotes. I’m especially good at Emperor’s New Groove
quotes. Let’s face it; there’s a good Disney quote for nearly every situation.
As a result, today I have some Emperor’s New Groove quotes for your everyday
LDS life (not non-LDS life, they’re pretty versatile).
"You threw off
my groove!"
Useful for
pretty much every day. Someone cuts you off in traffic, your roommate is in the
shower when you need the bathroom, or that one guy in Elders Quorum brings up
his mission leadership experience AGAIN.
"No
touchy!"
Pretty much
whenever you need some personal space. Or when anyone of the opposite sex gets
too close to a missionary.
"Take your pick;
I've got more."
A more enjoyable way to say
“etcetera”. I’ll occasionally use this after running out of ideas in a list.
"It's my birthday
gift to me! I'm so happy!"
Pretty much
whenever I buy something for myself. I got really happy when I was able to use
this quote for my plans to go to Disneyland after graduating from BYU (that
trip is finally happening in September). It’s my graduation gift to me! I’m so
happy!
"Well, I suppose
there's time for dessert."
Pretty much
any meal as a missionary. “We need to run to another appointment… but I suppose
there’s time for dessert.” I don’t know if I ever had a meal as a missionary
that didn’t include dessert.
"Arg! I gotta go
wash something."
Anything
frustrating: work, relationships, lack of relationships, or the upcoming
presidential election.
"I don't know
about you, but I'm getting all funned out."
When work
is nearly over. Or when someone goes over during their talk in Sacrament
Meeting. Or at the end of a long plane ride. Take your pick; I've got more.
"And that's...
Bad?"
How I feel
at the Hill Cumorah Pageant when I see the protestors making claims about
Mormons and Joseph Smith and anything else about the church. Some of them end
up being true, but they try to spin them in a weird light, so I just brush it
off.
"Look at me and
my bad self. I snatched you right out of the air."
Whenever I
lose my grip on something and miraculously save it from landing on the floor.
Especially food. Can’t let any food go to waste if
“Now I feel bad. Bad llama.”
Whenever I sarcastically feel
bad. Of course this one isn’t complete without the weak self-slap.
Alright. That’s all for now. Next week more Marvel. Unless I
come up with something better.

| Side note: Can we talk for a second about the apparent psychic powers that Pacha's kids have? I mean they had visions of their dad's journey with Kuzco! And they made it down the hill fast enough to ambush Yzma along the way down. Just saying. |
