Inconceivable!

I do not think that word means what you think it means.

I learned in the Princess Bride that even smart people sometimes make mistakes.

Land War in Asia White T-Shirt

First to recommend

Description

In the Princess Bride I learned the two biggest classic blunders:

'You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is "Never get involved in a land war in Asia." But only slightly less well known is this: "Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line!"'

Battle of Wits Rectangle Magnet

Description

In the Princess Bride I learned that Logic can go a long way... but it's not unbeatable.

"But it's so simple! All I have to do is divine from what I know of you. Are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own goblet, or his enemy's? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own goblet, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I'm not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool; you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of me."

In Dirty Dancing I learned that rich girls who can afford to spend the whole summer at a camp lodge in the mountains get the hottest guys. But the hottest guys are always the help.

In Dirty Dancing I learned that the best/easiest way to get a hot guy to call you baby is to make it your nickname. Just say my name: "Oh Baby!"

I learned from the Princess Bride that everything scary is manageable if you take a little time to figure out the situation. And ROUS's are probably just a myth...

Foil Print Goonies Never Say Die Ladies T-Shirt

First to recommend

Description

Love this shirt. Not only did Anne Hathaway wear it to the Get Smart Premiere, but it shows us that the Goonies were loyal and tenacious. Even when a giant squid was after them (depending on what cut you've seen).

Who Ya Gonna Call Ladies Ghostbusters T-Shirt

First to recommend

Description

When I've got a problem with Ghosts... I know who I am going to call but the question's not for me.

"If there's something strange
in your neighborhood
Who ya gonna call?
GHOSTBUSTERS

If there's something weird
and it don't look good
Who ya gonna call?
GHOSTBUSTERS

I ain't afraid of no ghosts
I ain't afraid of no ghosts"

Back to the Future Flux Capacitor Men's T Shirt

First to recommend

Description

I learned from Back to the Future that the Flux Capacitor is what makes time travel possible, and without it we will have to spend out lives in the same century. Although you should probably not run into yourself in a different decade because you might faint.
