Ronald Reagan's 31 Most YOLO Moments:

“Before I refuse to take your questions, I have an opening statement.”

Reagan once let a guy dressed as a leprechaun serenade his Cabinet on St. Patrick’s Day. Now that’s a president.

Now the government would have us believe that white dot above Medieval Times is a “weather balloon.” Lie! It’s obviously an extraterrestrial ghost orb.

I had a dream last night that I met Elvira and we became jolly good friends who went on a road trip in her vintage convertible. How do I make this happen in real life?

Imagining this is easy if you try…

Sometimes I just get really upset about gender norms and I just want to kick something.

If gender norms were a person, I’d stab that son-of-a-bitch in the jugular.

I feel this way about people who try to get on the elevator before I’ve had a chance to get off.

David Edelstein on Terrence Malick’s To The Wonder:

There are critics who’ve greeted Malick’s last few cinematic church services on their knees, and I went into this one with my mind open. But at some point a wind from On High blew it shut. It’s not that the characters’ struggles don’t interest me. You share those struggles, no matter what your faith or lack thereof, if you’re human. The problem is these characters don’t seem human. They’re not people, they’re symbols of people, so the whole thing comes off as generalized, even woozy.
