Blackheads drive me wild.- Margot Kidder
If you want to get to first base with me, honey, spit when you talk.- Terri Garr
When my date blows his nose in his handkerchief and then looks at it, I can't say no.- Jane Curtin
I go the limit for a guy with bad breath. And if he has plaque on his teeth? Wigga! Wigga!- Gilda Radner
