I’ve used these a couple of times…

Homer - So I asked myself, what would God do in a situation like this? So I turned to the Bible…the ultimate prankster’s bible!

Homer - Don’t blame me, I voted for Kodos!

Homer - (in a loving fasion)in my eyes, your both potential murderers!

Ralph - When I grow up, I wanna be a dinosaur!

Bart - I warsh m’self with a rag on a stick!

Homer - Let us never speak of the shortcut again.

Homer - 30 seconds??? But I want it now!!!

Marge - (after a couple of people describe how they are going to spend their money) 100 tacos? Public Broadcasting? I won’t have you throwing you money away like that!

Homer - you mean you did a favor for me just so I could do a favor for you in the future? That is low. I will say good day to you sir!

One of my all time favorites (although seeing it here in print necessitated the removal of projectile-style Diet Coke from my monitor for some reason)

My favorites (and most-oft-used) are:  
“Why, I could kiss you, if only they hadn’t made me sign a waiver saying I wouldn’t.”

and

“I swear by the many arms of Vishnu, it is a lie.”

In addition, “purple monkey dishwasher” is a common reply to “What did you say?”

Another one that slipped my mind before.

When heading out and about my farewell line to Mrs. Angel is often, “I’m going out. If I don’t come back, avenge my death.”

How could I forget the ever popular

_ **Excitement, she wrote** _.

It’s perfect for summing up a boring situation that no one is going to want to participate in!
