People think coming in under the radar is like being a fighter pilot and actually coming in under the radar. It’s a completely ridiculous idea to come in under the radar. It’s the Olympics; everyone is on the radar here.
I can’t watch shows like ‘The X Factor,’ for instance. I just squirm for the people involved, for the way they’re being used. It’s the cruellest, most ridiculous show on television. It’s ruined music, ruined everything.
I feel that there is a decision people make to either engage in a legitimately ridiculous process to get your kid into school, or choose not to engage in that so much, and end up finding a nice local school that fits.
I have this ridiculous idea that art should just be for everyone, and everyone should get to enjoy art and it shouldn’t be this exclusive thing.
This sounds ridiculous, but my political inspiration is not Marx or Engels or anything like that. It was my mum.
I remember I did a character in ‘Robocop’ years ago – Commander Cash. I wore this really ridiculous outfit, and my face was covered. You couldn’t recognize me in the suit; you could only hear my voice.
I have this theory that, depending on your attitude, your life doesn’t have to become this ridiculous charade that it seems so many people end up living.
On one level, of course, the notion of judging films or books or music against each other is completely ridiculous. Who’s to say ’12 Years A Slave’ is a better film than ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’? Or that one album in a certain genre is better than another in a completely different genre?
If you get a wrinkle, I don’t feel that’s indicative of your losing ground. That’s ridiculous.
It’s so nice to be able to get up on stage and just say the most disgusting, ridiculous, outrageous, offensive thing, knowing it’s just between you and the audience.
I always at least try to come from some sort of human place no matter how ridiculous the character is. That’s really awesome. That is more the work that I’m leaning towards doing.
For a hate group originally focused on video games, anger over a comedy movie for starring women might seem ridiculous. But at its core, Gamergate is about a toxic male sense of ownership over geek culture.
I got a toy guitar at a fundraiser and was trying to write songs with it that were ridiculous. After a week, my parents bought me a real acoustic guitar, and I started taking guitar lessons.
I think one of the major differences between Wonder Woman and Jessica Jones is that Wonder Woman is iconic and much better known, so you get into a lot of ridiculous expectations, like what’s her costume going to look like? Well, nobody knows who Jessica Jones is, except for fangirls and boys.
My dad always taught me never to give up in my mind. You can never really beat me. It sounds ridiculous, but I will always come back for you. You can’t beat someone who never gives up. I could lose 100 times to you, but I will always get you. I will die trying. This applies not only to swimming but to my life as well.
I grew up in the 90s in the time of grunge when if you didn’t go on stage in jeans and a T shirt you weren’t ‘real.’ That seemed ridiculous to me.
That’s what my wardrobe room looks like. It’s all costumes and props. It’s ridiculous.
It almost sounds ridiculous – but I almost feel like I’ve re-learned to hit.
Between 12 and 14, I shot up a ridiculous amount. The muscles were struggling to stretch and grow at the rate my bones were growing. It gave me problems with my back and my hamstrings.
We know no spectacle so ridiculous as the British public in one of its periodical fits of morality.
Sometimes I’ll watch a music video of a great performer like Beyonce and try to follow her choreography. Yeah, maybe I look ridiculous, but dancing gets your energy up a lot better than running on a treadmill or pedaling a stationary bike.
It’s ridiculous. My life’s been a series of happy accidents.
People in Northern Ireland vote for their church, they don’t vote with their heads; it is ridiculous.
This idea you’re going to take a 50-year-old coal miner and turn them into a software engineer is ridiculous.
The fate of animals is of greater importance to me than the fear of appearing ridiculous; it is indissolubly connected with the fate of men.
I have never made but one prayer to God, a very short one: ‘O Lord make my enemies ridiculous.’ And God granted it.
The idea that American producers and directors are choosing black British talent to save themselves a buck or two is ridiculous – it’s because we’re damn good.
When I was 17, a neighbour I knew well died of cancer, and I became au pair to her three little girls. In circumstances like that, when you can’t really help, I think it’s a human response to do something beyond oneself. So I did a sponsored parachute jump for Cancer Research. It was exciting and ridiculous.
People don’t mind being mean; but they never want to be ridiculous.
I truly believe that women should be financially independent from their men. And let’s face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define value. They define what’s sexy. And men define what’s feminine. It’s ridiculous.
To me, the goal of building useless and ridiculous robots is more – I mean, in some way, it’s like a personal goal because I think it’s really fun, and I think having fun is super important to create things.
Oscar night is a ridiculous night where you go to these parties and you see everyone that you’ve ever wanted to work with and admire.
I’ve found myself at one in the morning just sitting at my desk spending an hour returning emails from the day until like two in the morning. It’s ridiculous, I should be sleeping, or dreaming, or reading a novel.
It’s insane that, since the Beatles and Dylan, it’s assumed that all musicians should do everything themselves. It’s that ridiculous, teenage idea that when Mick Jagger sings, he’s telling you something about his own life. It’s so arrogant to think that people would want to know about it anyway!
There is something that falls short of perfection in every book, without exception, something influenced by the age, even something ridiculous; just like everyone, without exception, has weaknesses.
There’s nothing more ridiculous than seeing yourself in a video game.
The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything.
Reality really is theater. There’s no other way to describe it. It’s all so nonsensical, ridiculous and chaotic.
I’m ridiculous, I’m ludicrous.
