Actually, I'm more from the 'PCU' generation. I always thought that movie was a bland imitator of Animal House, though. There's only one original.

Belushi could say more with one single raised eyebrow - think about him on the ladder outside the soroity window - than most of today's comedians can say in an entire monologue. Too bad he was a druggie.

That having been said, my advice to you is to start drinking heavily. You better listen to me, I'm pre-med.

To-GA! To-GA! To-GA! To-GA!

Actually, I don't think it's so much that we're all the toga party generation - heck, I was around 8 when the movie came out - as much as a universal realization that there have been few to zero truly classic comedies made since the mid-1980s. Caddyshack, The Blues Brothers, Ghostbusters, etc.
