There are lots of ways we gauge how good of friends we're about to be friends with people: values, political/social leanings, shared sense of humor, general friendliness/kindness, things in common, etc. One of those things for me is if you catch the reference to whatever movie/show I slipped into a regular conversation.
Here are some of the ones I quote fairly regularly and/or did a bunch in HS/college:
- put the baby on a t-shirt. win, win, WIN.
- 10 AM TOMORROW!
- Guess what, I saw a dog today!
- Do you have a best friend? Does he have a big coat too?
- It's INSIDE the computer!
- Can I be wearing anymore clothes?
- I drive a Tercel, yeah that's a Toyota.
- I know you can be overwhelmed and you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed?
- (Cough) I have the black lung.
- I hope next time you'll estimate me.
- See if we can get YouTube out for this.
- bears, beets, battlestar galatica
- So, in your wildest dreams, you're co-owning a bed and breakfast with the devil?
- He wears t-shirts, sometimes.
- A pretty nice little Saturday.
- No milk will ever be our milk.
- Boom, roasted.
- A freak gasoline fight accident
I might have messed some of these up, but they're close. I'm not going to check them.
About a third of them are from The Office. Others are: Friends, Zoolander, 10 Things I Hate About You, Can't Hardly Wait, Elf, Billy Madison, Old School. I think I only watched Old School once, but I really hung on to that one line (it's the pretty nice little Saturday one).
