Movie Lines we use in Everyday Conversation

Merlin didn't like the Title of the Meditation Book, "Wherever you Go, There You Are".

Clearly, he never saw "Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension".

So what movies do you quote during everyday conversations?

"Laugh while you can, Monkey Boy!"

All my best movie lines...

All my best movie lines come from Ghostbusters :-)

"Don't cross the streams!" - Spengler
"Ok, important safety tip. Thanks, Egon." - Venkman
"Well that wasn't such a chore now, was it?" - Stantz
"I collect spores, molds and fungus" - Spengler (particularly useful when someone asks what I do for a living)
"I feel like the floor of a taxi cab" - Spengler
"Why worry? Each one of us is carrying an unlicensed nuclear accelerator on his back." - Stantz (useful at work)
"I don't have to take this abuse from you, I've got hundreds of people dying to abuse me." - Venkman (useful at home, in a playful way :-))

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
