Friday was a big night, maybe not in terms of amount of drinks, but needless to say I had a few. It was just such a damn late night (got back around 5ish, so not that late for here) and I was beat all of Saturday. So I woke up around noon and flip on the tele in my room and what's on? That's right, Mr. Deeds.
For those of you who don't know, my esteemed colleagues, Jason Gallup and Scott Kulek, spearheaded a period of my life in which I probably watched Mr. Deeds 50 times (Jason guesses he's closer to 200 and I'm sure that Scott isn't too far behind that). So you can see why, for me, there is some nostalgia attached to it. It's fun here because all the movies are in english with subtitles, and I have gotten in the habit of reading all of the subtitles to what is being said on the screen. It's a really fun activity, because there is rarely a direct translation. The most common one is instead of 'damn,' it's 'maldición,' which is more or less saying "bad word." So I chuckle a lot through the familiar movies that are played. However, its the funniest when some thing comes across and they translate it literally.
So I was watching Mr. Deeds and it gets to the part where Chuck Cedar goes into get some inside information on Deeds and he finds his informant in the shower and says that he'll pay him "provided the information is good...and you stop soaping your ass." Well I was reading the subtitles, and for those that want to know, you say "deje de enjabonarse su cuelo." Yep, that right there is a golden phrase. I'm not sure if there is ever going to be a moment when I need it, but in case i ever find somebody who is a little too vigilant on ass-soaping, I can tell them to stop.
