There was this "Seinfeld" episode, where Jerry and a girlfriend kept kissing, cuddling, and making baby noises in front of a really grossed- out George. They keep telling each-other "your schmoopy", "no, you're schmoopy", in a cutesy voice, until George had enough and barked, "ok, you're BOTH schmoopy.
Ah, the good old days. ;)
Also, to "Dupreeciate". Its just too #$%^ funny :laugh:

Ah, okay, Seinfeld. MadLori said it to me and I thought she made the word up.
I am probably one of three people in the US who never, ever watched a single Seinfeld episode. I went around for years before I figured out where Yadda yadda yadda came from.

AAhhhhh! You mean schmaltz!
louisev:
I think "schmaltz" is more pure sentimentality.
"Schmoop" is definitely limited to the childish babytalk lovers can do with one another when they start acting terminally cutesy. It is certainly a memorable line when George bursts out "Okay, you're BOTH Schmoopy!"

Thanks Louise for clearing up what will happen in OUR futures as it pertains to Ennis and Ellery. You are very generous.
Side bar: Just finished reading "Marley and Me" and have been inspired that the guys ( Ennis and Ellery) need a dog. I mean a man dog. A big Lab would be perfect. Read the book and picture that dog (Marley) in Laramie Saga.

I've watched a few episodes of Seinfeld, but I must confess that I didn't find it remotely amusing at all. I mentioned this once at work and everyone around me looked at me as if I just confessed to eating babies.
Maybe I need therepy.
Ahh.... another chapter of LS, that will help... ;D
Louise, my sanity is in your hands.
