Well, I guess I'll follow tradition and list all the ones I can think of that I just love.
* "I just like to fuck with the clergy, man, I love it, I love to keep those guys on their toes."
* "You're doing it again." / "Come *on*!" / "What did we talk about?" / "FUCK!"
* Any one of the multiple times when Dante whines the word "fuck." Nobody can whine quite like him. It's a fucking riot.
* "I'm a fucking *demon.*"
* "Why can't you call Randal? . . . 'Cause I'm fuckin' *tired*!"
* "YOU KNOW WHAT?? THERE *IS* NO EASTER BUNNY! OVER THERE, THAT'S JUST SOME GUY IN A SUIT!!" Solely because of Ethan Suplee's delivery - classic.
* "BECAUSE THE OTHER THREE ARE FIGMENTS OF YOUR *FUCKING* IMAGINATION!" Again, delivery. This line slays me every time just because of how Jason Lee says it.
* "We went through five Adams before we figured that one out."
* "Prophets. Two of 'em. The one who speaks - and he will, at great length, whether you want him to or not - will make mention of myself as a prophet. The other one . . . well, he's the quiet type."
* There's a great line from Shannon Hamilton in the cut footage from Mallrats; I can't remember the exact wording, because I've only seen it once: After he finishes beating Brodie up, he tells him on his way out the door that Fashionable Male is having a sale next week and promises - in absolute sincerity - to cut Brodie a good deal on a suit if he shows up. He sounds like he's talking to a friend and prospective customer instead of a guy he just beat the shit out of. I almost *died*.
* "Your maleness amazes me sometimes." The way Jeremy London delivers this line just makes me giggle. I swear, if TS weren't the straightest male character in all four Askewniverse movies put together, that line would make me wonder . . .
* "Her fuckin' *body* fell out!!"
* "You're a danger to both the dead and the living." / "I know I'm your hero." / "Get the hell out of here."
* "Would you like a chocolate-covered pretzel? They're a little melty, but *damn*, are they exquisite."
* "People say weird shit during sex. One time I called this girl 'Mom.'"
* "You're his *father*. You sick fuck!"
* And while I'm on that scene, Bartleby's entire Mooby boardroom speech.
* "How do I stop an angel? Two of them, even?" *makes catching gestures with her hands*
* Any time any character says, "Holy shit!" It's amazing how much range can go into those two words.
* "No pleasure, no rapture, no exquisite sin greater - than central air."
* "I feel like Han Solo, and you're Chewy, and she's Ben Kenobi, and we're in that *fucked*-up bar!"
* "The Voice!" / "The *Apostle.*"
* "I wasn't gonna touch him, I was gonna shoot his ass!"
* "You didn't say 'God bless you' when I sneezed!"
* ". . . out of fear of some intangible parent figure who shakes a finger at you from thousands of years ago and says, and says, 'Do it and I'll . . . do it and I'll fuckin' *spank* you!"
And I'm gonna think of so many of them later on, but that's what I've got for now.
