Sigh. My wife calls all of them “Bugs Bunny” cartoons. As in, not Tom & Jerry or Disney or whatever. _I_ was hoping by adding **“in general”** to my OP I wouldn’t have to clarify which specific character said what and from which series with the year of release and a discussion of the acquisition of Brunswick Records. You know, that we would all understand what I meant by “Bugs Bunny cartoons.”

I was hoping.

To clarify my OP for everyone who has an actual quote to add: **You are free to use a quote from all characters that have ever appeared at any point ever in any Looney Tunes or Merrie Meoldies cartoon produced by Harman-Ising Pictures, Leon Schlesinger Productions, Warner Bros. Cartoons, DePatie-Freleng Enterprises, or anyone else I may have forgotten**.  
Christ, I fucking hate this place sometimes.

I must have taken a wrong turn at Albuquerque.

I gotta leetle rabbit, and I’m gonna eat him allllll up!

You meet soooo many iiinteresting people in this business. But the moooost iiinteresting are the monsters! I say, “If a monster _can’t_ have an iiiinteresting hairdo, _what_ is this world coming to?”

Senor! I forgot to tell you, Slowpoke Rodrigues, he pack the gun!

That boy’s about as sharp as a sackful of wet mice.

I made a joke, son! How’s come you’re not laughing?

I hate’s that rabbit.

Th-th-th-that’s all, folks!

I occasionally append ‘in the twenty fourth and half century!’ to names…  
Also, ‘super-genius’.

I rarely add ‘I own a mansion and a yacht’ when introducing myself, though.

‘You’re dithpicable…’

I sing ‘Singin’ in the Bathtub’ in Tweety’s voice randomly every once in a while.

‘I tawt I taw a puddy tat!’  
‘I deeeeed, I deed taw a puddy tat!’ (Last time I got a good chance to use it was when a friend who goes by Tat dressed as a catgirl for an anime convention… I was shocked nobody beat me to it.)

Not so much a quote, but I’ll occasionally use Foghorn’s speech patterns ‘Son, I say, son…’

Who DOESN’T regret taking a left turn at Albuquerque once in a while?

I have nicknamed my younger daughter George, based on the above quote! And she now answers to it! VERY precocious for a 7 year old!
