Celery and Malefactions

Mom: We got lamb and vegetable balls.

Overheard in Vegas, or, Wooparagonsh

Mom: Sissy Fork! Sissy Fork! Which is different than American Fork.

Gwen: Is there such thing as an ice cream scoop?
Truman and Dad: No.

Truman: Paragonah?! Sounds like a disease. I've got the Paragonah. There's no hope. It's terminal.

(Discussing the word disgruntled)
Tru: Disgruntled. So can I be gruntled?
Gwen: Sounds like that thing on How to Train Your Dragon. To gruntle: To be hit at full speed with a grunkle.
Tru: No, a gruntle is the noise you make when a grunkle hits you at full speed.

Concerning the Strip:
Gwen: I like it.
Tru: I don't.
Gwen: Well you're a square.
Tru: No, I'm a prude. There's a difference.
