This reminds me of a totally random Spongbob moment:

(Spongebob and Patrick are locked in a room on a pirate ship. Both of them know that they probably will not last the next 24 hours. They start looking for a way to escape.)

[Paraphrased]

Spongebob: I don’t see anyway out of here Patrick, it looks like we’re doomed!  
Patrick: I think I found away out!

Patrick: But, it’s through the PERFUME DEPARTMENT!  
[[The camera cuts to a Live action shot of a real Department Store Perfume Department. Complete with foot traffic.]]

Spongebob:

" We’ll just have to risk it! "

Thought of a few more:

From M_A_S_H_:  
From the episode where they’re watching “My Darling Clementine” and the projector keeps breaking. At one point, they all sang “Gee, Mom, I Wanna Go Home”. Quite some time later, Frank stands up and bursts out singing that tune with: “Oh, Hawkeye and BJ, they think they’re really smart. I’d like to take a scalpel and stab 'em in the heart!”

I fell off the couch I was laughing so hard the first time I saw that episode.  
Then these two from the Simpsons:

1. I believe this episode was one where they were coming up with spin-offs for the characters, but I’m not sure. At any rate, you see Homer in his car driving and he’s singing to the tune of The Flintstones theme song: “Homer, Homer Simpson. He’s the greatest guy in history. From the town of Springfield, he’s about to hit a chestnut tree…”

That one just cracks me up every time I hear it. I think what makes it, is that short scream he does after he sings the last word.

1. From the episode where we learn Marge is afraid to fly:  
You see her blue hair moving back and forth rapidly as she runs up and down the aisle of the plane screaming: “Let me off, let me off, let me off, let me off, let me off, let me off…”

There are tons of great lines from Monty Python’s Meaning Of Life:  
“It’s only wafer-thin…”  
“I know it’s not much, but, well, Fuck You!”  
Almost the entire Sex Education scene

Risky Business

Guido the Killer Pimp (Joey Pants) is standing at Joel’s (Tom Cruise) front door and he’s rapidly losing his temper.

Guido to Joel: “You’re starting to give me a tummy-ache.” It’s been established that Guido is a genuinely dangerous guy so the line actually has some menace to it.

And Rebecca DeMornay sticks her head out the upstairs window and shouts down at him, “Good! I hope it hurts!”

Throwing gasoline on a fire that’s threatening to burn someone else is always good comedy.

I use the one right after:
