Quotes9

  • Steff: I want to know when it is that you and I are gonna get together and do something?
  • Andie: Try never.
  • Steff: Well, I'm talking about more than just sex here.
  • Andie: No you're not.
  • Steff: You know, I've liked you for four years and you treat me like shit, you know. I don't understand that? What's the problem?
  • Andie: Can you get oof of my car?
  • Steff: You know, I've been out with a lot of girls at this school. I don't see what makes you so different.
  • Andie: I have taste.
  • Steff: [puts cigarette in mouth] You're a bitch.
  • Steff: Why are you doing this? Why don't you just... nail her, and get it over with? Why are you getting involved?
  • Blane: Is there something wrong with that?
  • Steff: I just think it's stupid, you know. It's pointless. I mean, your parents.
  • [sarcastic]
  • Steff: I think they'll be thrilled.
  • Blane: [defensively] They have nothing to do with it.
  • Steff: Oh, really? I've seen your mother go to work on you, Blane. It's vicious. When Bill and Joyce are through with you, you won't know whether to shit or go sailing... Listen, I'm getting really bored with this conversation, all right, Blane? If you want your piece of low-grade ass, fine. Take it, you know. But if you do, you're not going to have a friend.
  • Blane: Is that right?
  • Steff: [shakes his head in disgust] Yeah, that's right. I mean, if you wanna make the choice, go ahead. Make it.
  • Steff: Look, that was very uncool of you last night, Blane.
  • Blane: What?
  • Steff: [mockingly] What?
  • Blane: You mean Andie?
  • Steff: Yeah, I mean Andie.
  • Blane: What's the big deal? I like her. Matter of fact, I was pissed off at you guys for being so nasty to her.
  • Steff: It was way out of order for you to force her on the party.
  • Blane: [disbelievingly] Steff, do you hear yourself? Do you hear the same asshole shit I hear?
  • Steff: What, do I have to spell it out for you?
  • Blane: [pissed off] I guess so.
  • Steff: Nobody appreciates your sense of humor, you know. As a matter of fact, everyone's just about to puke from you. If you've got a hard-on for trash, don't take care of it around us.
  • Steff: Money really means nothing to me. Do you think I'd treat my parents' house this way if it did?
  • Steff: Any girl that did that to me, I would not be too jazzed to hold on to, Blane. It's not worth it. I told you it wasn't gonna work. The girl was, is, and will always be, nada.
  • Steff: Why don't you go to take a shower, you look like shit.
  • Steff: [arguing With Blane] What's her name... Eddie?
  • Steff: Are we gonna shoot some trap or what? Cause, I mean if we're gonna shoot, we gotta shake it.
  • Steff: Andie, you're a bitch.
