Almost the entirety of “The Day the Earth Stood Stupid” is gold. The newscaster: > [@](#): > > Hi! Today some bad things happened. One bad thing was a train got crashed in New Jersey. Wanna see? > > ::clip of wreck:: > > People won’t be late for work, though, because the governor-lady said, “I’m sending in more trains.” I think the delivery is what nails it. ---

Fry: “Scooty-puff Jr. suuuuccckkkssss…” Zapp: “The mind is willing but the body is spongy and bruised.” It is not real quoteable but I love the frieghtened mumblings of Kiff when he tries to call Amy to ask her out. I use it all the time when **LadyFried** tries to get me to do something I don’t want to do. “I…umph…uhh…mmph…_gasp_…urhh…uhhh…mmph…_whimper_…” ---

“We no can dunk, but good fundamentals. Make it more fun to watch.” “HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!” “Kif, I’m headed to the men’s room and I’ll be needing an attendant so-- Oh, I’m sorry. You’re crying…like a woman.” ---

The last few times I’ve watched the show, I’ve found myself laughing at all the times Bender adds that superflous “me, Bender!” to his sentences. ---

> [@](#): > > Almost the entirety of “The Day the Earth Stood Stupid” is gold. Agreed - probably the most quotable episode. Everything the Nibblonians say crack me up: “And even we Nibblonians, an ancient and powerful race, are powerless to stop them…fearsome though we are.” ::purrs:: ---

Bender singing: B E N D E R BEEENNNDER B E N DER BEEENNNNDER Bender asking for Amy to fix her mourning for him: LOUUUUDER AND SAAAAAADDDER FRY: Well, thanks to the Internet, I’m now bored with sex. Is there a place on the web that panders to my lust for violence? BENDER: Is the Space Pope reptilian? Hedonism bot: More Chocolate syrup Jombi! Professor Farnsworth: Everyone’s always in favor of saving Hitler’s brain, but when you put it in the body of a great white shark, ooooh, suddenly you’ve gone too far! ---

I only started watching **Futurama** about a month ago, and now I’m addicted. (2007 was also my first year to watch **The Office**. I tend to be late to parties.) So far the small quote that made me laugh hardest was in _Bendless Love_, when everyone at last figures out who’s been bending everything in sight – including the Professor: **Zoidberg** : _J’accuse!_ I don’t know why it cracks me up. Plus, the Professor’s cheerful “Good news, everyone!” makes me grin every. time. in anticipation. Oh! And so many quotes from _The Deep South_: * * * **Professor:** He may have ocean madness, but that’s no excuse for ocean rudeness. * * * **Hermes:** I’d love to stay, but I miss my wife and oxygen. **Professor:** Yes, we all miss our loved ones and gasses. * * * **Zoidberg:** You know, Fry, I’ve got a little place just outside town. You could come visit, maybe? [Fry looks at the Colonel who shakes his head.] **Fry:** Sorry, Zoidberg. I’m trying to join the country club. * * * **Leela:** But, Fry, what about us? What about your life on the surface? You don’t belong down here. **Zoidberg:** She’s right, I mean, sure, they got the Braves but it’s a third-rate symphony. * * * Hell, almost everything Zoidberg says. I love that pathetic lobster. ---

[QUOTE=Sir Dirx] Oh man, that episode is great for quoting. _“For no raisin!!”_ has become part of my regular vocabulary. [/QUOTE] “I am the greetest!” Morbo: “Blame rests with known human Professor Hubert Farnsworth and his tiny, inferior brain.” Morbo: “And that’s why the third-graders at PS 139 are Morbo’s Vermin of the Week.” Newscaster: “Once again, today’s winning lottery number is 4.” Lucy Liubot: “Oh, Fry. . . I love how you NOTICED TWO THINGS.” ---
