    If you had any clue how often my family would greet each other by screaming “you don’t need carpet” with the response of “you need an arearug”, even in public, you would not have posted this out of respect for my pain.

    Jokes aside, I fucking love that movie. Hanks and Field chewing the scenery like a methed out tweaker on a piece of carpet is brilliant.
