“So much time, so little to do.”
From Mallrats: “Step aside, Red.” I have no idea why. I didn’t even realize what movie it was from until I’d been saying it for a while.
From the Simpsons (many, but these are the most common): “D’oh”, “You have my undivided attention.” “I thought it was a party <device>.” “I can’t promise I’ll try, but I’ll try to try.”
In high school, two friends and I made a bet to see who could go the longest without making a Simpsons reference, I won by a lot, making it almost to lunch.
Words of frustration: Mother pus bucket (Ghostbusters)
While waiting for someone to unlock a door: Open up, it’s me, Louis! (also Ghostbusters)
When someone calls me over to help with something: Here I come to save the day (Mighty Mouse)
whenever I have to get by people: excuse me excuse me pardon me excuse me (Bugs Bunny)
I was thinking of starting this thread today. I have a million of them, but some of my favorites, which I’ve used in actual (well plagarized) conversation:
"Don’t piss down my back and tell me it’s raining." - Josey Wales
"Can I make a statement? Your mouthwash ain’t makin’ it" - The Enforcer
“Thank you very little”. Caddyshack
“Don’t sell yourself short, judge. You are a tremendous slouch.” Caddyshack
"I feel like a hundred dollars. " - Caddyshack
“What we do in life echoes in eternity.” - **Gladiator ** (however, I prefer “echos *through * eternity”)
*“Condominiums? I never use 'em.” * - Rocky
“I couldn’t do that. Could you do that? How can THEY do that? Who are those guys?” - Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid
“Keep thinkin’ Butch. That’s what your good at.” - Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid
And, my best ever… only used once but in the vault forever. My brother calls me and thinks he’s dialed his girlfriend’s number. I answer the phone, “Hello”? and he hesitates… he can’t figure out why a guy has answered his girlfriend’s phone. There is a slight hesitation, and then he says “Is Julie there?”
Without a pause, I say
“Uh, she can’t come to the phone right now. She has my dick in her mouth.”
and hang up. 3 minutes later he calls, realizing who it was and that he called the wrong number. That was 15 years ago. We still laugh about it. 
I think it was from Ruthless People. I’ve never used it since, but damn if that wasn’t worth filing away!
For some reason I’m not sure about, whenever we are shooting fireworks or doing anything in general that involves smoke, friends and I will start quoting Apocalypse Now with “I love the smell of…”. Strangest thing about it is that it’s not for amusement, simply habit.
More Simpsons
“But I’m using my whole ass!”
“Sweet merciful crap!”
In addition to a lot of the things already mentioned, one that I have call to use all the time is from The Money Pit.
Anytime someone asks me how long it will take me to do anything, it’s always “Two Weeks”
I use a few Strong Bad-isms here or there, especially “Holy crap!” as a general (serious or mock) horrified reaction and “burnination” because that’s such a fun word.
My dad’s the one who drops more refs, especially in the form of old songs. In fact, some of his jokes are so familiar that one of us (me, mom, or bro) finish the sentence for him.
(A lot of his jokes stem from puns in Chinese, though, so it’s hard to explain them.)
When anyone, anytime, anywhere says, “Dave!!”
the response from 'most everyone I know will be, “Dave’s not here, man.”
When things go right: ‘Hail to the king, baby!’ - Army of Darkness
When things go bad: ‘Bloody shit-cakes.’ - Bromwell High
When I want to confuse the everloving fuck out of someone: ‘Taste me! I’m delicious!’ - Invader Zim
When someone makes a very strange comment: ‘That’s the kind of logic that’s not…’ - Buffy, the Vampire Slayer (At least I’m pretty sure that’s where I got it from…I can’t find the episode it’s from…)
i picked up the expression “uhhh…bread?” as the stock answer to any question to which i don’t have an answer in college. apparently there was an SNL sketch where there is a gorilla who answers a phone and not knowing what to say utters the phrase.
Yes. delivered by Dany DeVito.
I see I share my taste in tag lines with a lot of you.
Many Pythonisms work their way into my daily life, also things from movies/TV shows I’ve watched over and over again. Some that stick out:
when bidding someone adieu: “Have Fun Storming The Castle” (with appropriate accent)
In place of “Okay” I sometimes says “Well. There it is, then” (from Amadeus)
I can’t think of any others right now, but in the course of my day, I’m sure I will be using a few, so I will post as I go.
oh yeah
“My Mother (insert action just perpetrated here) once. Once.”
“Damn Skippy”
“Stay frosty”
I think of my RRSP portfolio as my “retirement grease”.
A Microsoft golf simulator for the 486, wasn’t it?
Family Guy’s “holy crip, it’s a crapple” has become my standard expression of surprise these days.
“open the pod bay doors, Hal” is another great phrase for expressing everything from major frustration to blithe and naive hope.
I also frequently and out of context quote Bob Dylan. That just imressess the shit out of ageing hippies.
mm
And anytime someone says something will take two weeks, my sister and I will always repeat it, saying it like Quaid in Total Recall when his tourist disguise began to malfunction.
We’re both in our thirties, and this still makes us laugh like a couple of kids!
When I see something that makes me drool: “Aaah, beer nuts.” a la Homer
Seinfeld: “Yeah, something’s missing all right.”
“Have fun storming the castle.”
within my group of friends, when someone tells me I can’t do or have something, I say “Is it because I’m a Lesbian?”
