22 Times Sophia Spoke to Us on 'The Golden Girls'

Sophia Petrillo (The Golden Girls," she always knew how to shut someone down, even if it was her own daughter. These are the 22 times she basically read our minds.

When she didn't have time for brown-nosers

When she knew what it would take to accept death

When she was always on high alert

When she could make fun of herself

When she gave us our new life motto

When she knew that feelings just got in the way

When she was savage

When she couldn't help herself when it came to making fun of Rose

When she was an expert at sarcasm

When she got real with herself

When she knew she was old, but not dead

When she had burns for days

When she was honest with herself

When she was not down with BBQ-ing

When she knew the only thing that solved problems was sugar

When she was quick on her feet

When she knew that food was better than any man

When she was ready with the burns

When she couldn't be anything but blunt

When she was bringing problems

When she was lovable, even when she was mean

When she was not about that judgmental life
