Juno MacGuff: Yeah, you just take Soupy-Sales to prom I can think of so many cooler things to do that night. Like, you know what Bleek? I might pumice my feet, uh, I might go to Bren’s Unitarian Church, maybe get hit by a truck full of hot garbage juice, you know? Cause all those things, would be exponentially cooler than going to prom with you.

Paulie Bleeker: You’re being really immature… You have no reason to be mad at me, I mean, you know, you broke MY heart. I should be royally ticked off at you. I should be really cheesed off, I shouldn’t want to talk to you anymore.

Juno MacGuff: What? Cause I got bored and had sex with you and I didn’t want to like marry you?

Paulie Bleeker: Like I’d marry you! You’d be the meanest wife ever, okay? And I know that you weren’t bored that day because there was a lot of stuff on TV, and then ‘The Blair Witch Project’ was coming on Starz and you were like ‘I haven’t seen this since it came out and if so we should watch it’ and then ‘but oh, no, we should just make out instead la la la’

Juno MacGuff: You just take Katrina the douchepacker to prom. I’m sure you two will have like a real bitchin’ time.

Paulie Bleeker: Well, I still have your underwear!

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is snark, suggested by Gabe.

Trivia: Juno was the Roman Goddess of childbirth and marriage. The name “Juno” also has other meanings for Canadians (where Juno was filmed and a number of cast and crew — such as Ellen Page, Michael Cera and Jason Reitman — were born). “Juno” was the code name of the beach where Canadian troops landed on D-Day. Approximately 1000 Canadian soldiers were injured or killed on D-Day while capturing this beach. “Juno” is also the name of the annual Canadian music awards (similar to the U.S. Grammy awards).
