It was by watching Emma Peel that I learned I was a man.

And too darn sober. Hey...it was never about the movie...it was about taking half a dozen or more drunken teenagers in a roughly 1:1 ratio of boy to girl, and spending 90 minutes shouting at the screen and laughing your silly head off.

My younger bro came up with the best ad-lib to the scripted yell-ats one night ... the scenes when they're in the pool, at the end of all the "Waiter, waiter, there's a fly in my soup" stuff. After the audience yells, "Waiter, waiter, there's a dead fly in my soup" (pause) "What do you want, a refund?" Bro takes a two-beat and yells into the silence, "No, salt and pepper."

The theater erupted, they laughed so hard at that! We had people coming up to us after the movie to slap him on the back, "Great line, can I use it next week?" LOL!!

A torrid, stormy, passionate, destructive and viciously painful romance with someone named Joni ended just as "Joanie Loves Chachi" went on the air.

So, I hated it.

My favorite ad-lib was always when Dr. Frankenfurter pulls back the tablecloth to reveal that Eddie's remains are stashed under the glass tabletop...and three guesses what the entree is...

It's at that point we would yell "NOT MEATLOAF AGAIN!!!"

I know, it is funny that I had you pictured as a young man-hunk. Then I read your profile. Ooops. Sorry. What the hell. I'm too old for young men-hunks anyway. :~)

but I think Pissant missed that part. He's still stuck on the strap-on idea.... (I think Pissant's kind of kinky.)
