Things overheard at the yorkdale opening

Sometime during the night it was decided that a list should be kept of the interesting things people said. A lot of these things may seem stupid or not make any sense if you werent there. Since I was up at the beginning of the line, these were mostly from people in that area. Feel free to add new items, corrections or other info below.

in random order:
1) it would be funny if he woke up at another entrance (Speaking of Allen, #1, who slept most of the evening.)
2) iDick
3) Owww my squeedly squooch
4) "Hello Yorkdale mall" (in response to pizza pizza calling back to confirm delivery)
5) Steve Jobs...He's a hippie
6) #21 is wet
7) Woo-hoo free t-shirts!
8) I didnt bring my iPod since I didnt want to bring anything expensive that could be lost or stolen... .but I did bring my powerbook
9) We're in line for star wars
10) This isnt the line for star wars?!?
11) You got another pizza in the car I can buy? (to delivery guy)
12) Tra-la-la filling the lucky bags (said while doing a fairy dance)
13) In Quebec, the legal drinking age is "oui"
14) said: "Stimpy looks like a barf bag", heard "snoopy looks like a barf bag"
15) So that's how Rosie O'Donell gets through the door. (Said as we were watching them manouvering a cherry-picker through the doors!)
16)Cop: Are you guys actually gonna buy anything?
T-Hill (#9): I knew we forgot something!
17) #11 and #12 have a 3-inch iBook! (in response to them using a Nintendo DS with an apple sticker on it)
18) Security Guard: Man, I just got back from vacation...this line is nuts, you guys are freakin crazy! (He then walks away.)
19) Those cops think we're Bad Apples

Actually, it was both. Because you wrote it down as 'we.'

#11 and #12 had a 3-inch iBook!

Actually it was Cliffy (#6 I think) who did the writing at the event so I absolve myself from this and any other misquotes

(and I meant half asleep when writing/typing the post this morning)
