Who said/did it first?

There some things that a refrensed/parodied in shows/programes/games/films so much it's hard to tell who actually said/did it originaly. So this thread is for people who like me, have dificulty knowing.

I'll will send two of mine, but you can ask if you like.


1. The first one is a quote which is said when ever some one asks a character to tell the truth, they reply "The truth? You won't hadndle the truth!!" Anyone know where this is from?

2. Another common quote is this one "IF that's your name!" it is said when somone is angry with somone, as an example say you were angry with me:

"Alright MJN SEIFER - IF that's your name!"

Huh?! The line makes no sense and so many people seam to say it!!

The first is from A Few Good Men, as said by Jack Nicholson. I'm not sure about the second. If it's a famous and now cliche line from some movie, I've never heard it.

Thank you. That's one down.

While you are puzzling over the 2nd, let me give you a 3rd.

That really naff "Walk this way" joke where sombody says "Walk this way", which means "Follow me" but you think it means "Walk exactly the way I'm walking".

Mel Brooks made it famous. I'm not sure if the joke was around before him or not, but I sure don't think so. Good example: Young Frankenstein. He does it in more than one movie, I think.

thank you.

Do you mean 'If that is your real name?'

Probly, either way it's strange.

The idea is that the individual being questioned is so suspicious that he can't even be trusted to use his real name. Implied hyperbole.

A-ha!

Thank you.


PS:Remember this for everyone so if you have any you can ask.
