Lilacs04 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:02 pm     Just two brief questions: 1) Who is Hadley? I've heard Amy mention her before but I can't seem to tell who it is. and 2) When and why did the other HGs start using "You ain't got to lie" in reference to Amy? Thanks guys! |
Sobaditsgood | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:06 pm     Hey Lilacs - I just asked the "Hadley" question in the "Q's that don't need a whole thread" thread... but so far it's ignored, so maybe if it does have a whole thread it'll get answered! Don't know anything about the 'aint got to lie' thing unless they're making fun of the southern dialect. 'You aint got to....' is a pretty common phrase used to indicate mild exasperation (faux or real) in the part of Ark. where I'm originally from, you say it with the 'aint' even if you don't normally use the word, just for comic effect. Most folks I know also pronounce it more like "yaint got tuh" - I haven't heard Amy or any other HG say it so I don't know if this is what they're doing but I've certainly heard the phrase used before by folks "being funny." |
Jan | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:08 pm     1) Hadley is her best friend (female) with whom she does everything. 2) I don't know but it sounds like something she would say herself so maybe they are mimicking her? |

Wcv63 | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 02:14 pm     Every story Amy tells seems to have Hadley in it. The houseguests have started a chorus of "HADLEY" (said in a Thurston Howell accent) when her name comes up in an Amy story. Amy has said more than once that Hadley is her best friend. |
Cyn | Tuesday, July 30, 2002 - 03:47 pm     other things we know about hadley: she was born in nyc in matthattan on october 13th on a friday with a full moon. her father was working as a writer for nbc for saturday night live. she moved to memphis with her family when she was nine. they met at ole miss. |
Abigail1970 | Wednesday, July 31, 2002 - 12:54 pm     Just a guess but in that movie Friday, there's a part where Trey's girlfriend says: "You ain't got to lie" There are saying it exactly like her. |
Fabnsab | Thursday, August 01, 2002 - 12:16 am     They are, indeed, quoting a movie. They mentioned that they had a different quote every day but that one stuck. The movie escapes me but the above post is probably right. |
