There. Are. FOUR LIGHTS!! Also Jean Luc. Anytime I'm telling my SO there are 4 of something. This is probably why we can't keep friends.

Oh, don't worry. Their idea of wit is nothing more than an incisive observation humorously phrased and delivered with impeccable timing.

I'm good for like the first 10 seasons, which are the best 10 seasons. I grew up on it and rewatched a lot of them as an adult. It's funnier as an adult.

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah seasons 3 through 8 were the Conan O'Brien years. That's the golden era.

But there are excellent episodes outside of that. I personally think "SE12 EP18 - Trilogy of Errors" is a top 5 episode. It's the one where marge cuts off homer's thumb, Milhouse finds fireworks in a cave and Lisa builds a ~~party~~ grammar robot. I haven't seen enough of seasons beyond like 20 or so to comment on them, but Ive heard they've actually been hitting a solid stride since the pandemic.

I use this one a lot. Also, I've been known to say "mool-tee-pass" when handing over my ID.

[-] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Even as late as last year, I walked into a dark room, half shouted "Aziz!" and someone turned on a light.

He later claimed to have never heard of the movie.

They asked for the quote, not the movie. :-D

These are my go to quotes from Snatch and The Big Lebowski that I use whenever the occasion arises. Not everyone gets the reference. I also refer to my anxiety meds as "anti anxiety disco biscuits." I got that one from Shameless - my doctor got a kick out of that.

"What's happening with them sausages, Charlie?"

"In the quiet words of the Virgin Mary... come again?"

"D'ya like dags?"

"You're out of your element!"

"This aggression will not stand, man."

"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

"why do we fall? ... So we can learn to pick ourselves up again"

[-] Stillhart@lemm.ee 12 points 1 year ago

People don't get THAT reference? That's a pretty popular movie and a line that was pretty key in the movie AND repeated multiple times.

Whenever someone says anything remotely close to "you can imagine what happens next" or "you can guess where this is going" I say:

"He fixes the cable?"

There are just so many quotable lines from Kung Pow

"That's a lot of nuts!"

"You go that way, I'll go home."

"We trained him wrong as a joke"

"If you got an ass I'll kick it!"

"My nipples look like Milk Duds!"

"I'm a man too, you know. I go peepee standing up!"

"I rock and roll, all day long, sweet Susie!"

"Leap that wall, if you're so great!"

"I'm a nice man with happy feelings all the time!"

Not from a movie, but there's a line from The Office that really stuck with me:

Its dumb, but whenever someone mentions peaches I always hit them with "I could eat peaches for hours". An obscure line from Face Off but for whatever reason it's stuck in my head over all these years. No one ever gets the reference.

[-] morphballganon@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I think it's "a peach," not "peaches"

Im in fucking Austria. Illiterate farmers the lot of them here. Nobody has ever seen a movie in English or any other language than German.

There is nothing I can quote that they would recognise.
