Quotes McGotes

Choosing a name for a blog is never an easy decision... unless you have a title and build your blog around. Then perhaps the blog itself is the challenge. In the past I have come up with ideas, but could never get started. Finally after two and a half failed attempts to write a blog, I feel quotes are something I can actually write about.

I promise you the quotes I write about will not be those boring quotes that use old English and are written by some dead guy. I’m talking about good ol’ every day phrases said by friends or heard in movies, (even some books), that make me laugh or cause me to stop and think. Hopefully you’ll get a laugh out of some of them too!

Now back to the name of my blog, “Quotes McGotes”, perhaps some of you already understand the origin of this little mis-quote. If you don’t, I shall explain: ever watch the movie I Love You, Man? Throughout the movie Peter Klaven, the main character, is constantly saying random things in hopes to be cool, but ends up creating countless awkward situations for himself. At one point in the movie Peter attempts to arrange another “man date” with Sydney Fife, his new best friend, and says “Totally... Totes McGotes”. This quote has been popping up randomly in my head since the first time I watched the movie, so naturally it’s a favourite. As I was trying to think of a name for this blog I realized that I was able to mis-quote a favourite to make a bit of a pun. I love puns. So I present to you the blog entitled “Quotes McGotes”, I hope you all enjoy!
