Do you ever reply to people with lines from films?

[Rainingstairs]

i like...."This aggression will not stand!...man..." (lebowski)

 

[rubbershoes]

you've got shit shoes on you shitty-shoed bastard

i don't really get the opportunity to use that as often as it deserves

 

[Cheesypoof]

i would share my favourite lines with you......but they are such classics, from the glory days of alec guinness and albert finney. those guys are my top inspirations in life its a genuflectual kind of honour i have for their precision.....you, go figure.

 

[rollinder]

what - your quotes are too good for us or something

I quote lines from song lyrics and tv programes mostly - ended up telling my mum on the phone today "careful now - down with that sort of thing" in responce to something she'd said.

Used to go out the door to go shopping (when I was still living with my gran) or to the jobcentre/new deal etc. with the words "let's go to work" (I hadn't even seen Resovior Dogs ) or "Hey Ho let's go" /ramones.

Same here Plus the only person who could be relied upon to recognise it was my brother

 

[sojourner]

starts the car engine by saying either "Flame On" or "Atomic Batteries to Power"

Not quite the same, but whenever I've got the daughter in the car, I come to a stop by making screechy brake noises, a la Starsky and Hutch/any number of cop shows over the years

 

[goldenecitrone]

lots of people dont notice. But thats okay.

I know that one. It's from "The man who smelled vaguely of pork". Isn't it?

 

[SpookyFrank]

"I demand to have some booze!"

Although to be fair this usually arises less in the context of a Richard E Grant tribute than in the context of demanding booze

Yep, use that one a bit.

Another Withnail quote I like using is: "We demand the finest wines avaliable to humanity. We want them here and we want them now."

It's good also, because you can change the 'wines' part to anything you want and use the quote for any kind of situation.

you can say it to me any time you like may

 

[shagnasty]

Its really annoying and frankly my dear i don,t give damm and doesn,t amount to a hill of beans

 

[davesgcr]

Withanail again ...

"I am a trained actor reduced to being a bum"

Just love the rants.

"Monty you bastard..."

& "As a boy I used to weep in butchers shops" ........

I can't get in vans or watch other people doing it without screeching "GETINTHEBACKOFTHEVAN!!!!"

 

[scumbalina]

Oh dear, remembering others we do at ours all the time, not just in reply to other people but in a hidesous in-jokey way.

From Emperor of the North "I win! I win!" whenever one of us...er...wins something

If Mr S is lying down I often get the urge to straddle him and pump his chest shouting "I can bring anyone back to life.." repeatedly ala Empire of the Sun

 

[brianx]

"It's my police training" if I ever work out something because I've cheated like Clint in Coogan's Bluff. But Spinal Tap is the one "what's wrong with being sexy?" "there's a fine line between clever and stupid" "mime in money" "kick this arse" "people should be envying us I envy us, me too" even when they don't fit I find myself using them.

'Something tells me we're not in Kansas any more'

I do Wizard of Oz lines all the time, but that's cos my friend is from Kansas. She doesn't find it amusing anymore though

 

[SpookyFrank]

sure! If it fits and i know they'll get it. i did date this guy though once that expressed ALLLLL his feelings through song lyrics..that got tired...

You dated Morrissey? Awesome!

 

[Lysistrata]

Oh dear, me too. They don't like it do they?

I have also been known to drop the occasional Star Wars/Withnail/Alan Partridge quote into conversation, "Jurassic Park!" being our favourite exclamation of success.

 

[Maurice Picarda]

[howie]Oh God! Oh Jesus Christ! [/howie]

All the time.

 

[imposs1904]

I know it's a massively aannoying twat-habit but I can't help it. Today I managed

'I find your lack of tea-bags disturbing'

and most damningly of all, during a conversation about C. Diff superbug

xxx: I don't care what Kettering Geeral are doing to fix it, I want to know who's responsible. Why can't they tell the truth

me: YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

I would tell you, but I would have to kill you afterwards.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

[howie]Oh God! Oh Jesus Christ! [/howie]

All the time.

Same here. Usually along the lines of "There's no milk" "Oh God! Oh Jesus Christ"!

 

[Iguana]

So has nobody ever responded to "I love you" with "I know" or is that just me?
