The only one that springs to mind is whenever I see a flock of birds taking off, I generally say "fly pelican, fly" which either produces a look of bemusement on the face of whoever I'm with or a string of other Scarface quotes, depending on the company!

" I didn't know they stacked st that high!" when any heights are brought up in conversation.

"Talk to me goose" when I answer the phone to one of my mates who despises topgun.

And I use the line "no st sherlock" when anyone mentions something quite. Obvious. Dunno what film that is from.

I'd forgotten about this one until I heard my wife using it just now-

"What was that?" said in a slightly exasperated oriental accent, especially as one of the cats has made a clumsy effort to jump up on something.

Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon

From the same scene, I've been known to say

"Emotional content, not anger, "

In fact, that scene also yields another favourite

"Never take your eyes off your opponent", we issue that advice to one of our two cats (they have been know to have a little set-to from time to time).

+ A Million. Surprised it didn't come up sooner.

Also "not waitress, owner" and "eat f*#cking cookie!" from Mickey Blue Eyes, just because it makes me and wifey smile.

Few more I thought of today

"It's a deal, it's a steal, it's the sale of the fking century"

When finding a bargain whilst out shopping

"Where's your car dude?"

To a friend from work who once called me to see if I knew which level of the airport multistorey he left his car on.

"Did you see what God just did to us man?"

If I cock something up, but only around people who will give the correct reply "God didn't do that to us you did, you're a fking Narcotics Agent" (more Fear and Loathing)

"My God, it's full of stars"

Looking up on a clear night in the country.

"Look at his little face, it looks like a little strawberry"

If someone goes red. In fact there seems to be a lot of South Park in my every day conversation. Hmm, must stop watching....

Usually in the context of pre arranged communications:
Broadsword calling Danny Boy

Followed by:
The Eagle has landed

Whenever anything has arrived

"What was that?"

And props to the Sure Thing reference beer

Your powers of observation do you credit, Mr Bond.

Dr Holly Goodhead in Moonraker used whenever a contender's specialist subject is the bleedin' obvious.*


*which, in turn, is a quote from Basil Fawlty.

One I used recently on PH, after someone totally ignored a point I made on a previous post and criticised me for something which my quote explained:

'Let me know when it sinks in' (Lake Placid)


A slight misquote used on me recently during a rather uncomfortable, and invasive, examination by a doctor.

'You'll be pleased to know we always have time for lubricant.' (Evolution) That's all you need, a doctor with a sense of humour who has his finger up your arse. What could possibly go wrong? (Source disputed, but used by Clarkson as a book title)


One my wife uses when I've suggested a friend of ours, or more particularly hers, might have done something questionable.

'You might think that. I could not possibly comment.' (Francis Urquart, House of Cards)

"Look - there's a dog with a fluffy tail" (Homer Simpson).

Used by my wife and I when you have just lost track of the conversation, ie forgotten the last thing she or I have just said.


Also "Matt Damon" from Team America.
I believe he is a friend of the producers, and after his puppet came out a bit stupid-looking, he loved the idea.

I've just started using one from the 80's lately:

If I am talking to someone and they aren't listening...

'Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?'
