"Anatidaephobia: the feeling that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you." --Gary Larson, The Far Side
Maybe I'll add that to my signature, now that I'm thinking about it.

Over the past months/years I've accumulated hundreds of quotes (mostly found them on the net). Here are a few more humorous ones:
"Police arrested two kids yesterday, one was drinking battery acid, the other was eating fireworks. They charged one and let the other one off."
"So I went to the dentist. He said "Say Aaah." I said "Why?" He said "My dog's died.'"
Tommy Cooper
"Love is the answer - but while you're waiting for the answer sex raises some pretty good questions."
Woody Allen
"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read."
"Marry me and I'll never look at another horse!"

Around our house, we quote lines from movies in the regular course of conversation all day, every day. It's kind of a game with us. My husband and I have MANY quotes that we use randomly during the events of the day. I know, we're movie geeks. But oh well! I guess if I had to list the ones used most often for various situations:
1. From Tommy Boy -
Hi, I'm Earth...have we met?
I see I've interrupted happy time.
Got that?
Are you talking?
Shut up, Richard.
I think it tried to bite me!
Brothers don't shake hands, brothers gotta hug!
Look, mommy, the rhino's getting too close to the car!
Did you eat a lot of paint chips as a kid?
Tommy likey...Tommy want wingey!
2. From Vacation -
Honey, I'm not an ordained minister, I'm doing the best I can!
I'm so hungry I could eat a sandwich from a gas station.
Russ, your feet.
Go do your own front.
3. Airplane -
Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.
Do you like movies about gladiators?
4. Star Wars -
It's our lot in life...we were made to suffer.
That's no moon, that's a space station.
No reward is worth this!
I have a bad feeling about this.
Where did you dig up that old fossil?
Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?
We use dozens more, but I won't bore you with them! :o)

Interestingly, I heard in an interview that Tony Randall was quite unlike Felix Unger in real life ...

That is a good one... Reminds me of my little cousin who watches that movie 24/7 and that is an understatement. |

I understand they looked very much alike! :) Of course he was an actor playing a part, but he played it so well that now it's hard (for me) to separate him from the character, which he probably would hate to hear. I did read that Tony Randall brought some of his interests into the show and made them Felix's--such as opera, memorably. |

I just don't think Tony Randall was an obsessive-compulsive neat freak ... :)

"A computer lets you make more mistakes faster than any invention in history, with the possible exception of handguns and tequila." -Mitch Ratcliffe
A couple of my favorite witty dialogs:
Joe Pine was the host of a talk show back in the '60s. He was very aggressive and loved to insult his guests mercilessly. Some people thought his acid personality was due to loosing a leg earlier in his life. Anyway, one evening he had Frank Zappa as a guest on the show. When Zappa walked into the studio, Pine greeted him with "I guess your long hair makes you a girl." Zappa quickly replied with "I guess your wooden leg makes you a table."
And, the best comeback ever in the entire history of comebacks, from the movie Good Will Hunting:
Will Hunting (Matt Damon) is in therapist Sean McGuire's (Robin Williams) office, talking about how maybe he really wants to go off to the country and raise a herd of sheep. Their discussion gets heated (as usual), and Hunting storms out screaming "&#%! You!" McGuire shrugs and calmly replies "You're the shepherd."

Love is like a roller coaster -- when it is good, you never want to get off. When it is bad, you want throw up.
I used to be apathetic. Now, I don't care.
Contemplation, to the untrained eye, is often mistaken for laziness.

"What destroys a man more quickly than to work, think and feel without inner necessity, without any deep personal desire, without pleasure--as a mere automaton of duty?"
