My "I like toast" line is actually an old joke. I was having dinner with a bunch of friends and one of my friends brought his ex-boyfriend, whom we all couldn't stand. This guy was such a pompus ass. He was really intelligent and thought his shit didn't stink, so he would intentionally try to talk over everyone's heads to make himself look smarter than everyone. So we're all at this dinner and he says something to his friend that none of us were supposed to understand, then looks around with this smarmy face as to say, "you all don't get it, do you?". So when he looked at me I said (in a really dumb sounding voice), "....I like toast."
Totally derailed the guy's thought processes. He was like a robot that got a short circuit. He just kind of looked at me and had no idea what to say, until the entire table errupted in laughter.
I always said "I like toast" when I couldn't think of anything else to say. That time it was really funny. So when the grandmother in Willy Wonka said "I like grapes" I almost pee'd myself. I felt a sense of solidarity with her.![]()
