**Office Space** “I believe you have my stapler.” (spoken in character, of course) and “PC Load Letter…what the f\*\*\* does that mean??” **Bugs Bunny** “She said, ‘Delores, you’re not seeing little lavender men in the sugar bowl’.” **Cable Guy** “PickupPickupPickupPickupPickup” **The Jerk** “The new phone book’s here! The new phone book’s here!” Those are the basics. There are many, many more. ---

‘Monty Python’ and ‘Princess Bride’, of course, like everyone, but also, my college roommate and I got into Kenneth Branaugh’s ‘Much Ado About Nothing,’ watching it over and over and occasionally quoting… I’m sure we sounded very erudite and pretentious with our Shakespeare quoting, but it was just a variation on College Python Syndrome. ---

What, no **Friday**? “Everytime I’m in the kitchen, you in the kitchen. Up in the goddamn refigerator. Eatin up all the food.” **The Jerk** is also a great one to quote from. Also, I’m surprised no one has mentioned **Scarface**. ---

_Withnail and I_. “My partner’s got a really good idea for making dolls. His name’s ‘Presuming Ed’. His sister give him the idea. She got a doll on Christmas wot pisses itself. Then you’ve got to change its drawers for it. 'Orrible really, but they’re like that, the little girls. So we’re going to make one wot shits itself, too.” “If I spike you, you’ll know you’ve been spoken to.” “Trade - pheno-dihydrochloride benzidrex. Street - ‘The embalmer’.” “Want cake. All right here? We want the finest wines availible to humanity. We want them here and we want them now.” ---

I mean, say what you like about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it’s an ethos.** These men are Nihilists, Donny. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Me and my buddies do it all the time. Fucking constantly. It never gets old. My favorites include _The Big Lebowski, Caddyshack, Spinal Tap, Office Space._ I wonder if it’s a guy thing, or if we just often need a substitute for actual conversation. Oooo… on preview I see a couple more. _Strange Brew:_ “Just because I don’t know what it is, doesn’t mean I’m lying.” _Scarface:_ “Manny, shoot this piece of shit.” and “Give her another Quaalude, she’ll love me again.” With a hackneyed Cuban accent, of course. ---

My friends and I used to watch \* Pretty Woman\* and _Dirty Dancing_ almost none stop. We could go through practically all the movie word for word. Not anymore though, I hasten to add, although I’m sure we can still remember a line or two from them 🙂 ---

My wife and I love quoting **Best in Show**. (all paraphrased) Man or Woman (I forget): “Where’s her busy bee?!? Look at her she’s freaking out!!!” Woman: “It’s a bee and it squeaks.” Pet Store Owner: “Uh, here you go.” Woman: “That’s a bear in a bee costume.” “We met at Starbucks. Not at the same Starbucks, but at Starbucks across the street from each other.” ---

**Monty Python (mostly Holy Grail and Life of Brian)** **Dogs in Space** I love this movie **Pass the Ammo** it’s just so funny probably some others that I will think of as soon as I post this. ---

Heheh, Mooch. Friday…“Don’t go in there for 35, 45 mintues”. I used to quote “Better Off Dead” constantly. My favorite line: “It’s got raisins…You like raisins.” People who have seen the movie laugh, people who haven’t get confused. Now, my SO and I are fond of doing bits of Invader Zim. “Where’s Ultra-PeePee?” “He’s working.” “Oh.” “We got Poop, diet Poop, Cherry Poop, and salty lemonade.” “I’ll take a large glass of Poop!” Ahhh…it makes me happy. 😃 ---

I’m pretty sure that I’m joining the general consensus here with the following: **Evil Dead trilogy** : “Who’s laughing now?” **Life of Brian** :“Well my Lord, how shall we fuck off?” and **Holy Grail** : “Help, I’m being repressed!” **Waiting for Guffman** : “See, I make the cones at the DQ…” **Best in Show** : “How much do you think I can bench press?” (Fred Willard is a comic genius). **Spinal Tap** : “I believe basically everything I read. I believe that makes me a more discriminating person.” **Blue Velvet** : “That Ben is so fucking suave.” **Wild at Heart** : “One-eyed Jack’s yearnin’ to go peepin’ in the seafood store!” **Reservoir Dogs** : “Daddy’s on his way and he’s fucking pissed.” **The Breakfast Club** : “I don’t think I need to sit here with you fucking dildos any longer.” ---
