Cerina Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Our house is usually chock full of Star Wars quotes, but it seems to have gotten worse since TFA premiered last year (which also coincided with our decision to name the baby Luke.) So right now you hear a lot of the following around here: "No. No. The one I'm pointing to." So useful when you have kids. "Droid, please!" Good for so many things. "Move, ball." Also useful when you have kids. "That's not how the force works!" Usually as a counter to some version of "use the force" which is also heard a lot. And, naturally, "Luke, I am your father." Which we know isn't an exact quote but come on! And it's usually followed up with "no! That's impossible!" because we think we're funny. We're also seriously considering making "don't let the muggles get you down" our family motto. And since my husband and I started our own handyman business amongst all the obvious wood, caulk, and nailed jokes we've been pretty fond of "Hammer needs a slot, Christine!"

Driver Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 "How's that working out for you?" Tyler Durden, Fight Club. Can be applied to pretty much any fool's errand. And not to sound like a dick, but I think I'd actively discourage use of any star wars-isms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowDog Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Yeah Star Wars quotes are the ultimate low hanging fruit. "So you're telling me there's a chance?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Ender Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I probably quote The Big Lebowski more than any other movie. I frequently use "(insert whatever here) is not the preferred nomenclature", "Far out", and the number one spot goes to... TV wise, probably Flight on the Concords. My dog's name is Murray so I have frequent quotes from this guy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerina Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 And not to sound like a dickHas that phrase ever not preceded a dickish statement? The new business has also inspired a few 12% comments. And nearly anytime our kid interrupts a conversation to find out what we're talking about we respond with "tell him about the Twinkie" because it annoys him.

My dog's name is Murray so I have frequent quotes from this guy... I also like using big Lebowski quotes. Same number 01 choice as you. Although I also like using "...obviously not a golfer" when someone picks an object and asks "what's this?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I know I have more of these but I have forgotten where they came from. For ever I usually say "ahhh, are you sure?" when somebody says something painfully obvious. Only recently recalled that I got that from David Spade in Tommy Boy.

Iceheart Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 My dad's name is Ken, and he's in landscaping and irrigation, so the "Kenneth the Shrubber" skit from MP&THG gets thrown around a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pong Messiah Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Yeah Star Wars quotes are the ultimate low hanging fruit. "So you're telling me there's a chance?"Dumb & Dumber is my go-to. "Why don't you eat up and we'll tell ya." or "How's your (insert food)?" at the end of a sentence is probably the most common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANA-kin Skywalker Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I use "STAY ON TARGET" occasionally, and only where I have an audience who is familiar enough with star wars to get it. "it's goona need a paint job and a shit-load of screen doors!" when something gets destroyed. (die hard) My cousin Vinny is loaded with useable one-liners. "are you suuuuuuure???? (I'm positive.) How can you be so sure??" "Do I get my ass kicked or collect two-hundred dollars?" "maybe it's time for some thicker glasses? Have they always been that thick??""perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist on YOUR STOVE!""I- *clap!* -Dentical!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
