Hi I was doing research on one of my favorite films of all time. They
had a section on one of the sites titled "Memorable Quotes" I looked
through the quotes and I saw this one:

"If my dog had a face like yours I'd shave his ass and tell him to
walk backwards. "


Holy crap I found the originating source from that quote. I never
knew until this day. I should of known back when I was young is when
the movie came out and let me tell you that was one of the biggest
lines we used back than.

Anyway the movie is Gleaming the Cube.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097438/quotes

You might remember the movie. It stars Christian Slater the plot
involves Christian Slater trying to find out who killed his adopted
Vietnames brother.

It's a great movie. Legendary skater Tony Hawk is in this film.

I was about 8 years old when this movie came out and it brings back
some great memories.

My parents were wrong to name me No, especially when
they knew our lastname was Name. You guys don't even
want to know my middle name, ok you got me, it's Freaking.

My name is No Freaking Name, No Name for short.

That is not the original source of that quote. That is just a quote from
that movie. I remember using that line when I was a child back in the 1960s
so unless I am a time traveler, the quote did not originate in a 1989 movie.

This is bad, but my dad used to say that to my sister when we were kids
(70's). Gleaming the cube wasn't bad though. The first place I heard the
phrase "Fur Burger". LOL

Actually, people have been saying that since before you were born -
probably since before Christian Slater was born.

Shit, it's as bad as the person who thought Tony Orlando and Dawn
originated the idea of tying a yellow ribbon round an old oak tree.
