Obscure lines that stick in your head.

The scene in Independence Day where Will Smith's character's girlfriend tells the First Lady (and eventual President of the Twelve Colonies ;) ) that she's a dancer.
"Ballet?"
"Exotic."
"Oh... I'm sorry."
 
"If you like to talk to tomatoes,
If a squash can make you smile,
If you like to waltz with potatoes,
Up and down the produce aisle...

...have we got a show for you!"
 
^ :lol:

"Barbara Manatee, you are the one for me,
Sent from up above, you are the one I love"

The best one, though, is the Schoolhouse Polka.

"Homophones, homophones,
Where the toads are towed out on the plane,
Homophones, homophones,
I need my kneaded biscuits plain!"
 
From the musical The Full Monty, when the stripper wannabes imagine what women might say about their bodies.

Women can be angels on earth
But then again
Holy g-d-m-n f-cking sh-t
Women can be men!
 
Rad-i-ation, yes indeed. You hear the most outrageous lies about it. Half baked goggle boxed do gooders telling everybody it's bad for you. Pernicious nonsense!

from Repo Man
 
Maybe we've had this already:

"Oh my God, they've shot him!"
"Hot Lips, you incredible nincompoop, it's the end of the quarter!"


If so, there it is again.
 
maybe someone can guess these ones...

''No Body's Listeing"

"..Michelle from Eastenders got a third"

"Oh yeh, we'd love it if you came"


Points for name of Character, Episode, Scene and avcourse Series...
 
From the original Star Trek, "Patterns of Force".

Eneg: Wait. There's been enough killing. Now we'll start to live the way the Fuhrer meant us to live.
 
From Law and Order: SVU, "Head".

Elliot Stabler: Did anything unusual happen [at the game] that day?
Soccer Coach: Yeah. We were actually winning for once.
 
^ Same episode (about a scene where a webcam is discovered hidden in a bathroom stall):

Munch: Gives a whole new meaning to the term 'live streaming video'. :lol:
 
^Blech. :p

I've probably said this one before, but it's been popping up lately. Every time someone says, "Take my hand," my brain finishes with, "Why? Are you a stranger in paradise?" :lol: I think that particular Goon Show episode is burned in my brain. "Napoleon's Piano" - how DID they come up with those ideas, anyway?
 
Oh, another obscure Munch line (he is hitting on Dr. Rodgers, the medical examiner):

Munch: Will you ever have dinner with me?
Rodgers: Not while I can still feed myself.

Different episode. A victim has died, apparently during S&M:

Rodgers: No defensive wounds.
Briscoe: That's odd.
Rodgers: Yeah, the fun part for these guys is the struggle after they've been tied up.
(pause)
Rodgers: Or so I've heard.

Rodgers is so deadpan, you gotta love her.
 
Another line that gets stuck in my head, and it's a line that I'd like to use at some point but no one's ever set me up for up for it is:

"Oh, piss on your hat!"
 
"She'll never understand. She's old. I mean, she must be at least thirty!!"

I'll look in a day or two to see if anyone recognises that one. :D
