The other day, me and rest of the support team recited the whole of Episode 29 from season 88999432 of 'Red Dwarf'. It was hilarious.

Then we quoted from Spaced which is even more crazy because 'Spaced' itself was quoting from 'Star Trek'!!!! After that we ran through 'Withnail' (to use its abbreviated name). Then Colin said 'make it so' and we all made the 'Vulcan sign'.

I do this all the time
and very few people actually get what the reference is meant to be, so I end up looking like a total knob.

Then again, most of them come from either Monty Python or various sci-fi shows that nobody ever watched. Or occasionally Friends, for which I can only apologise.

Alt: Dear Mr. Vernon: We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. But, we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us: in the simplest terms, in the most convenient definitions. But, what we found out is that each one of us is: a brain . . . And an athlete . . And a basket case . . . A princess . . . And a criminal. Does that answer your question?

"It is too late for me, son"
Mostly in reply to b3tans telling me I do myself no favours as regards the gay jibes. I like to think that being referred to as "son" by me unnerves them.

Another personal favourite is "Just cos the fucker's got a library card doesn't make him Yoda", from Se7en.

Alt Q - my first instinct is to go with "Yippee-ki-ay, motherfucker" but there's a lot to be said for the last line of Jaws. Really only works after watching the film though.

I sometimes forget that it's even from a film. It's just what I say.

When letting someone go through a door before me I always say "After you, Cecil" (pronounced See-sill). That's from some ancient black and white thing I can't even remember. Some comedy me and my dad used to watch with these blokes going "After you, Claude." "No, after you, Cecil!".
