Wednesday Addams’s 15 Most Savage Quotes!

Whoever has been binge-watching Tim Burton’s new TV series about Wednesday Addams over the last couple of days, raise your hands! The show came out only a week ago, yet it instantly became a hit. Some old-school fans were a little hesitant about the recent adaptation, as it is always hard to accept someone new playing your favorite characters. However, Jenna Ortega, playing teenage Wednesday (along with the rest of the cast), was absolutely incredible. She managed to portray the perfect Addams daughter, preserving the legacy of her forerunner Christina Ricci. 

Wednesday is a big ball of sarcasm and dark humor every time she manages to deliver her lines so effortlessly and carefree. The coolest part is that she doesn’t intend to be mean or offend anyone; it’s just her nature and her way of expressing her dark self. 

So, if you, like us, still can’t get over this mysterious and spooky TV show, we’ve gathered some of the most iconic and savage quotes from none other than the queen of sarcasm Wednesday Addams! 

1. “I’m not sure whose twisted idea it was to put hundreds of adolescents in underfunded schools run by people whose dreams were crushed years ago, but I admire the sadism.” (Episode 1)

Let’s be honest, haven’t we all felt like that about school, especially high school? Wednesday is just saying what we're thinking out loud.

2. “And you must be the self-appointed queen bee. Interesting thing about bees. Pull out their stingers, they drop dead.” (Episode 1)

It’s always interesting to watch the rivalry between the most popular girl of the school and the “weird” main character. Wednesday surely made it 10 times more fun.

3. “Emotions are a gateway trait. They lead to feelings which trigger tears. I don’t do tears.” (Episode 2)

Sometimes the cold mask hides the true identity of a person. Not sure if that relates to Wednesday or not...

7. “I don’t believe in heaven or hell. But I do believe in revenge. I usually serve it warm with a side of pain.” (Episode 3)

We know how people say, “Revenge is a dish best served cold”? No surprise that our little rule-breaker chooses to differ, even when it comes to vendettas. 

8. “Use the words ‘little’ and ‘girl’ to address me again, and I can’t guarantee your safety.” (Episode 3)

Wednesday is surely against stereotypes, and we’re absolutely here for it! Especially after seeing what that “little girl” is capable of!

9. “Whoever invented high heels clearly had a side-hustle as a torturer.” (Episode 4)

Hasn’t every single woman on this planet said the same thing at least once in their lifetimes? So, we absolutely understand your struggles, Wednesday!

You know a person is a true savage when they are not afraid of higher authorities and can easily talk to the sheriff like this.
