A Christmas Story. You can get it for about 6 bucks or wait until the 25th and they show it all day long on TBS I think. It's a direct quote from that movie.

You've probably seen it but didn't pick up on that line. Here's another "you'll shoot your eye out kid!"

My wife had a custom made shirt with the quote on it! I wear it to the Oldsmobile homecoming show and people like the shirt, but I always ask them, do you know what movie it's from? I always seem to get the deer in the headlights look! Of course I can wear the shirt and live it. Because my dad did work Oldsmobile and of course that's what we owned.

FYI 10 min into the movie is where the phrase is spoken. The old man walks in mumbling "I should have never bought an Oldsmobile, that damn olds is froze up again, I think the SOB would freeze up on the equator" and then Ralphie's narration follows with the quote above.

TBS plays the movie starting at 8 P.M. x-mas eve for 24 hrs. straight.
