Awesome movie quoting in real life

[FPAlpha]

So yesterday i was attending a trading card game tournament with a Fantasy Samurai background.

Right before the tournament began the organizers asked everyone to stand up, yelled "UTZ!!" to which everyone (more than 50 people) yelled back "BANZAII!!!!"

Awesome moment 1

Then someone yelled "Spartans! What is your profession?" and everyone yelled like hell

What are yours?

I often use a (moderately disguised) variation of "fear leads to anger; anger leads to hate; hate leads to suffering" professionally. It's a remarkably versatile phrase in psychiatric contexts, since it's really quite accurate a lot of the time. I always grin internally whenever I deploy it.

 

[captcalhoun]

i don't get the utz/banzai thing...

when people call me 'Scotty' (my name being Scott) i always respond 'I CANNAE DOO IT CAPN I DOON' HA' THA POWAH!'

which is always good for getting odd looks in a newsagents...

some times when i nip off for a pee break at work, i'll tell the super, 'i'll be back' in a faux-Arnie voice...

My GM was once talking about a vendor relationship or something not going great, and let fly with a "this deal's starting to feel like Cloud City". I think I was the only other person to get it.

When playing MW2 and a teammate calls out an enemy that I immediately nail it goes like this:

"Sniper behind the left train!" BANG

"It's no good. He didn't make it. Yeah, it didn't work out for him."

and of course, when things don't go my way, its "Missed it by that much."

I was at the grocery store over the weekend and some lady was getting upset because they wouldn't take a coupon for some reason. Just as her voice started getting shrill I hear a guy behind me say, "Now, now, calm down hunnybunny." Only he, I and the cashier cracked up in what was a rather long line but the moment was just classic. The look on the woman's face begged for a camera.

I tend to quote Feltch and Vacation a lot:

"Sorry I'm late, one of those manure spreaders jackknifed on the highway. God awful mess. You should see my shoes."

"Can I get you something. Food, drink, take you in the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?"

In restaurants I will frequently order "a bloody mary, steak sandwich, and a steak sandwich." My wife really hates that one.

Most people at my office think I have a friend named Ted Underhill.

My 4 yr old told me, "Daddy, you're funny!" last night and without thinking I said to him, "I'm funny? You think I'm here to amuse you?" I gotta stop watching Goodfellas.

ed.-it was actually a serious moment-I was telling him if he spilled his blue Kool-Aid he'd turn the tiles blue.

I have a habit of looking back with a stupid grin, say "Hey, it's me." and then go off and do something foolish.

Whenever we started a new mission or patrol in Iraq I'd always test the commo net by saying, "Irene, friggin Irene."

My favorite quote from Groundhog Day: "What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't one today!" I usually get weird looks afterwards, but I'm used to that.

I like using George C. Scott's big speech from "The Hospital" at inappropriate moments.

"We cure NOTHING! We heal NOTHING!" and so on.

A friend of mine when taking customer request always uses the phrase. "We can do that, we have the technology." Most people look at him strangely. Not a movie but funny.

Yeah, I love using that line!

Anytime I'm driving really fast down the highway or am doing something really awesome at work, I like to say, "I'm a leaf on the wind."

Anytime I'm driving really fast down the highway or am doing something really awesome at work, I like to say, "I'm a leaf on the wind."

In that vein (but tv rather than movie), I have used "My days of not taking you seriously are coming to a middle" at work.

Princess Bride and Office Space also get quoted around the office sometimes

Quotes I use

"I'd buy that for a dollar"

"Fortune and glory kid, fortune and glory"

"This must be where pies go when they die."

"The line must be drawn heeere!"

That seems like you are tempting fate.

Awesome. I'm going to start doing this.

Yep, always a good one.

I know.

I said it the other night at work, and my co-worker (also a Firefly fan) was like, "Why would you say that?! You're going to get impaled!"
