Sayings You Use From Movies, TV or Music

Mr. DS · January 15, 2011, 09:14:24 PM

Do you use quotes from various movies or other form of entertainment in everyday life? Theres quite a few I use;

"You're gonna need a bigger boat..." from Jaws often gets used when I need more space for items.

"Mother Pussbucket" from Ghostbusters I use when I'm about to say "mother f*cker" and need to sensor myself.

"Don't bother me...I'm...um...thinking..." from A Christmas Story when someone interupts me when I'm deep in thought about something.

"I went out to face the world again...wiser..." another one from a Christmas story when I didn't realize something I should have realized at first glance.

"I hate the smell of tapioca..." one more from A Christmas Story...it kind of wraps up my negative feelings on Xmas.

"Oh, life is like that. Sometimes, at the height of our revelries, when our joy is at it's zenith, when all is most right with the world, the most unthinkable disasters decend upon us." -- I've used that one from A Christmas Story a few times, so has my girlfriend...

" I love the smell of ________ in the morning"

Very customizable.

Ever since I saw how the movie Elves stole the "When Hell is full" line from Dawn of the Dead, I've occasionally customized it for my own purposes at home! For example: "When the litter box is full, the cats will poop the kitchen". I know so many words are replaced that it doesn't resemble the original, but it's the way you say it.

And I know it's obnoxious and probably not funny anymore, but I still sometimes say "hhwwwWHAt!" like Lil John, especially when responding to co-workers when it's least appropriate and therefore extremely funny to me.

When I get frustrated trying to figure something out, I use one of two quotes;

Richard Pryer in Superman III- "You think you've beaten me, but you haven't"

The Chicken Hawk (Mimicking Foghorn Leghorn) - "One o'- I say, One o' these things has GOT to be a chicken"

My sign out for WRIR, "And thus we fold the ol' infotainment tent" is stolen from Webb Wilder's Corn Flicks

Only used with people I know have seen it:
Have you ever had... AN EGYPTIAN FEAST???

I take care of the place while the master is away!

Hey everybody! We're all gonna get laid!

Many others I can't think of at the moment.

I actually Say "I'm your Boyfriend NOW!" From Elm Street when I figure out something tricky at work. Sort of my old very wierd "Eureka"

When I put my daughter on the school bus in the morning, I usually tell her to "have fun stormin' da castle" in my best Miracle Max voice.

And when she's not eating her dinner, but already asking about desert, she gets Pink Floyd's "If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding!" Again, in the appropriate voice.

The whole family has been known to quote Trumpy on the subject of potatoes.

Too many to list ... we quote movies all the time. But a few:

"Nipple tweak, and we're off" when we start on a trip, from mst3k riffing of "Radar Men from the Moon."

"I like the way he/she talks," said best Carl voice SLINGBLADE.

"We must give the American a wide berth," from THE HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER.

"Stay on target, staaay oooon tarrrrgggetttt," from STAR WARS.

Also from SW, "You're my only hope." This is usually said when someone is being a bit hystrionic.

"DEBRIS!" from TWISTER.

And lots more....

"That's a HUGE b***h!" from Deuce Bigalow. Both my hubby and I use the phrase to describe anything extremely tall or big.
