Still unsolved. Here are the two prior quotes.

“This is such a stone-cold pack of weirdos, and I am so proud!”

“I feel bad for your parents.”

One more.

“I took nine. I took nine. Yeah. I did slightly overcommit to the whole dog thing.”

Disney’s **Aladdin** (the animated version)

Another similar set of lines:

“I’ve ordered a set of forks.”  
“What are they for?”  
“For pronging food into your mouth. It keeps your fingers clean.”  
“But then you dirty the fork.”  
“Yes, but they’re washable.”  
“So are the fingers. I don’t see the point.”  
“It hasn’t one, practically speaking…”

And later:

“They’re discovered what the forks are for! They’re for prying each others’ eyes out!”

Apologies for popping in ridiculously late.  
Yes.

“Let’s get stoned and watch the freaks!”

from same flick - maybe one of my all time favourite quips -

“My parents never divorced. Although I _begged_ them to.”

I would not think that is a non famous line.
