[MrMrmonsterguy]

Not a very... relevant dad... and he wonders where Randy gets it from... lol!

[10classictv]

monday noodle!

[DakariKingMykan]

That lamp looked more like it was made of hard plastic. So how could it make a shattering sound?

[Eddie820]

Can't wait till the Christmas marathon, I always watch it minimum 2 times.

[DakariKingMykan]

@Eddie820

I'll never forget that time myself... 24 hours of nothing but a Christmas story... back to back to back to back...

If you missed a scene... no big deal

[obarlao]

Without a doubt my favorite part of this movie and the greatest line ever--"You used up all the glue ON PURPOSE!!!"

[RedmageAdam]

I don't know why, but I always loved when Mrs. Parker said "That is THE ugliest lamp I have ever seen in my entire LIFE!" Talk about throwing salt on an open wound. Of course, I also like Mr. Parker raging and yelling "You used up all the glue on purpose!"

[SunnyValeTP1]

Three people used up all the glue...on purpose!!!

[Greatsaiyakirby]

3 People didn't get the glue.

[ClassicTVful]

"You used up all the glue on purpose." LOL

[obarlao]

Without a doubt my favorite "funny" scence in the movie

[95Godfather]

what did he mean by "Not a finger!"?

[alexhortdog95]

@95Godfather Only he knows....NOT A FINGAH!!!

[obarlao]

@95Godfather He means that the wife is not to lay a finger on his beloved lamp until he gets back from the store with glue

[Cosmickid77]

ZadaFingah!!!



[jediskunk67]

"You use up all the glue on purpose!"

[physicalKinetics]

i love how the sound of shattering glass at 0:15 doesn't really phase ralphie but hearing his fathers feet on the stairs at 0:18 gives him a jump! I remember that feeling too well!

[physicalKinetics]

[drifter6276]

[PiscesGal]

Notice at 0:35 the lamp was fully mangled. Then when the video moved to 0:53, the lamp was nearly in one piece with a few cracks :p

[undermawg]

Gosh, this is great. This actor, Darren McGavin, was so damn funny in this movie. This whole movie is just great. R.I.P. Darren McGavin, and thank you for getting my "old man", who's tough to make laugh, laugh his ass off with this scene.

[legomaster335]

[comeonandzoomazoom]

[charmaliqueNYC]

YOU ART MUNDANE NOODLE!!! His loud fussing at a messed up furnace in the basement got me cracking up everytime I see this movie.

[charmaliqueNYC]

She ought to be jealous. He loved that lamp more than the wife.

[GHninja101]

That is THE UGLISET LAMP I HAVE SEE IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!!!! lol

[inferi085]

The best Christmas movie. Ever.

[Quamlen]

I actually with her the lamp is ugly.

[Freebleeper]

Pause @ 0:42... just look at the pain in his face.

[iowaluder]

2 people are commies! How could you hate this movie or scene!

[jhssuthrnmama]

@iowaluder b/c when I watched this as a kid, I loved the flagpole & overstuffed brother scenes, but the whole lamp debacle just made me feel sad & sick for any child or woman who had to live with someone whose priorities were as screwed up as this dad's is portrayed to be. It wasn't funny to me then, just made me sad, and still does.

[vpirates62]

I love the sound he makes after she says they're out of glue, lmao

[vigo894]

Did you know that the leg also appears in the movie, Porky's 2 The Next Day? It was also directed by Bob Clark. I got 2 miniatures of the lamp that I got from a relative. One actually comes inside a crate.

[Grantrus71]

@vigo894 "fragile"

[residentevilman64]

This is my favorite movie! I remember watching this with my Grandpa every year before he died...

[youtaughtmehowtolive]

PRESTON AND STEVE

[CaptianKiya]

You used up all the glue...on PURPUSE!

[newenglandsunsets]

"You used up all the glue on purpose!!!"....still and always will be my favorite scene of the film. Absolutely hysterical.

[bbmarie123]

LMAO NOT A FINGA!!!

[2010mustang1]

So sad he lost his lamp!

[EfeKs2]

what does the dad do down there??

[aspie1966]

I think he's trying to fix the furnace

[LumberjackNicholas]

NADAFINGA! is the official spelling.

One of the best lines in the movie!

[bicyclefortwo2]

NADDAFINGA!!!

[curlytoes79]

DRGGHGHG!!! You used up all the glue on purpose!!

[Scike]

lol, "Not a finger!!" What a line.

Favorite Christmas movie next to Christmas Vacation. Damn the 80s were awesome for movies.

[caNUm23]

the old man stood quivering with fury, stammering

as he tried to come up with a crusher all he got out was................. !!! ROFLMAO it gets me every time and I've seen it for 20 + years

[angienicole093]

[DJM442]

NOT A FINGAH!!!!!!

[seanhannity73]

@DJM442 back in those days shes lucky she didnt get hit in the hair do! lol

[troyvarsity]

[2010mustang1]

I love this movie and the lamp just as much

[dmc97ingc]

That is the ugliest lamp i have ever seen in my entire life!

[missjonesification1]

Oh man, I love this movie! this is such a classic!! one of my favs! how funny :)

[pokemario150]

something about a mundane noodle? who knows what the old man was saying O_o

[biaggiwins]

"dont you touch that", great movie

[CommanderLightning]

I love when he's swearing in gibberish.

[twilightfan1019]

this is the funniest part and when the mom trys not laugh when his is puting the lamp back togeather

[Knickmet2]

lol i think its so funny when he puts his hat on

[tommyt1971]

I've always thought McGavin should've been nom'd for an Oscar, this was a truly GREAT performance - body language (putting on the hat & stomping out), voice, facial expressions, everything!

[tubbythug92]

NOT A FINGA!!!

[meriweather59]

"You used up ALL the glue, on purpose!!"

[NewRecoidac]

I love the way he talks when yelling at the furnace

[joninpgh]

"You used up all the glue....ON PURPOSE!"

[tommyt1971]

Always liked the noise he makes just before he says that - prob impossible to spell out!!

[defyingGravity87]

Best scene! I remember seeing this as a play a few years ago. and this scene got major applause from the audience. It was so funny.

"naddafinga!" I still quote that to this day.

[DSkehan2004]

Not a Fingah! lol

[OTownNews]

You snort tungah! Layamongous diapershell caca! XD

[randyrhoads15]

this is the funniest shit ever!!

[AgentJamesLee]

The Old man is saying " notathinga" ( not a thinga) because he couldn't come up with anything to say.

[banksiegirl]

Has anyone ever thought that the mom broke it on purpose

[CesMan83]

@banksiegirl

I think so. Look at the look on mom's face at 0:05 - definitely a conspiring, nefarious look in her eyes, there! lol

[lazycamaro]

he sounds like don vito

[BelieveIt1051]

You platapus nut-graftah! You dorten u-no budda-do *unintelligible* -skunk- *unintelligible* You ward mundane noodle! You shot'n shift'a pesk-a-pah! You snor-tunger, lay-monger snaffer sil-cocker!!!

*CRASH*

NOT-A FINGA!

[vigo894]

Wow, that was pretty good.

[NeoSigma18]

I wish he really did say "platapus nut", but he actually says "platapus snot", Instead of "snor-tunger" he says "snort tunga/tounga"(although you were close), and instead of "lay-monger" and "cocker", he says "laymongus" and "caca" respectively.

[BelieveIt1051]

I... think I'm right. The "s" sound is a part of platapus that drags on, and he definately made the "uh" sound when he said "nut". I would be willing to compromise and say that he said "snut" though. But still, it sounds like the "s" was a drag on the word platapus. The snore-tunger part also goes to me. He only pronounces the "t" sound once, and that was for "tunger", and there is also an "er" sound at the end of "tunger". Same with "lay-monger".

[BelieveIt1051]

I will give you "caca" though, since the lamp breaks right as he finishes it and it could indeed be "caca" or "cocker".

[HourglassGuy]

Youuuu usssed up all the glue.... ON PURPOSE!

[c808boy]

haha everytime i watch this scene i crack up

love this movie

[ih8youm888]

cleveland rocks!!!!!!!!!!

[azcactus2008]

You used up all the glue on purpose!!!

[vigo894]

Nadafinga!

[herrocker666]

Interesting how a plastic lamp breaking makes the sound of a glass lamp breaking...

[Ralllyy]

maybe it was a light bulb? lol

[herrocker666]

That was a pretty big-ass light bulb.

[Ralllyy]

yes very lol

[HipHopJun]

I dont get it. what does he mean "Not a finger!" ? what does he mean???

[vigo894]

Between 1:34 and 1:41, he's still talking to her. The problem is, the narrator is talking over him, and we don't really know what he's

saying. Earlier, he tells her not to touch it

after he see's the broken lamp.l He's

probably saying to her something like this

before he leaves. "Don't you touch it, don't

you lay one finger on it." And then he say's

"Not a finger." I think that's why.

[HipHopJun]

lol, i see. it makes sense now. i never noticed how the narrator does blocks out his words.

[vigo894]

Me too. :).

[BelieveIt1051]

He either means "don't lay a finger on the broken lamp" (don't throw it out or break it more), or he means that he didn't or won't lay a finger on HER for breaking his lamp.

[herrocker666]

I don't think he's saying 'Not A Finger.' I think it's meant to be gibberish, nothing at all because he's so angry he can't speak, hence the line, 'All he got out was-'

[BelieveIt1051]

Yeah but Ralphie said that he was trying to come up with a real crusher.

"Not a finger" might imply that he's telling himself not to lay a finger on the ol' lady for breaking the lamp. Or it could mean that she should not lay a finger on the lamp (or that she shouldn't throw it away).

[herrocker666]

Well, I think it's the other way but, eh, everyone has different interpretations.

[SodiumCyanide]

the best part is when he comes back and slaps her around

[MSparks909]

NOT A FINGA!!!

[DantePierotti29]

[CultMovieFreak]

Sorry to be so persistant. Just wanted to correct you. Your welcome for the info!

[CultMovieFreak]

His first name is Scut. Look at the Internet Movie Database and watch the subtitles on the film.

[CultMovieFreak]

I believe his name is Scut Farkus.

[buckeyesrulemichigan]

It's scott moron

[CultMovieFreak]

No, its Scut. I hate arguing this with little smart asses like you who think they know shit. You don't. Check the IMDb page if you still think I'm wrong, pay careful attention to who Zack Ward plays.

it is SCUT FARKUS. Not "Scott".

[buckeyesrulemichigan]

Whatever idc anyway, it's not that big of a deal asshole

[usnationalguard]

NOT A FINGA

[kimsy520]

I love it when he caresses the lamp's remains: "Jealous! Jealous because I WON!"

[bobandcarlrock]

[LightofBankai]
