"I could vomit just looking at you."

Happy Birthday to the late, great Bea Arthur, who would have been 94 yesterday. To celebrate, we’re sharing this hilarious super cut of some of her most amazing zingers on The Golden Girls.
Seriously, it’s like Bianca Del Rio moved to Miami.
Bea also had a soft side—especially for the LGBT community. Her posthumous donation to the Ali Forney Center allowed the organization to build a new home for homeless queer youth, which is being named in her honor.
Of course, just like Dorothy, Bea did have a wicked sense of humor.
“People always think of her as very fierce and austere—and she did give that image. She could be tough, she could be really tough,” Betty White once remarked “But she had a funny sense of humor and she could tell a joke like nobody else.”
In fact Arthur once personally called a woman who told TV Guide she didn’t like the character of Dorothy Zbornak. “That person’s going to go tell everyone that I called her,” Arthur explained, “and no one’s going to believe her.”
Below, watch more sassy Bea Arthur moments from Maude and Golden Girls.
