I doubt I'm ever going to find occasion to say,
"Oh, look - they've got boy-whores, too!"

I actually DO say that. More often than I should, in fact. It's usually when I'm trying to brute-force something, or as a substitution for the "I need the bigger hammer" kind of comment while working on a car...

My apologies, for one.

Here's one I have been dying to use (but probably never shall)spoken as it was; slowly and with impeccable pronunciation:

"Every-man-there, go back inside--or I will blow, a new crater in this ti-ny moon."

If that's not Wash pwnage, Serenity should get some guns.

Not a problem, no need to apologize, but it was very nice. I was enjoying the ones we can't use because there have been several threads about quotes we have used and this was new.

I don't think many of us will find a use for:

"You shot me in the back! I didn't make you MAD, did I?"

*********************************************

"It's okay! I'm a leaf on the wind!!!"
"What does that mean?!?!?!"

For quite some time, I thought I would not have occasion to use "We applied the cortical electrodes but failed to get a response from either patient." Alas, lately one of my supervisors (about the only good one) has been getting through my loaner DVD set, and now when we find some unplanned occurance, or a lack of coordination amongst the worker bees, or other unforseen happenings, I can use that, where he then sniggers and agrees.

Not intending disrespect, but the thread title does keep changing, so maybe that's why some are posting quotes you CAN use.

While playing two-player video games, I always try to take the pilot/driver seat in hopes that whoever I'm playing with and I will re-enact the simple

'No.'
'Yes.'
'No!'
'Yes!'

Between Mal and Wash while trying to land on Mr. Universe's moon during the ol' epic space battle.

Alas, no such luck.

A quote I love but can't use:

"Now we have a boatful of citizens right on top of our... stolen cargo." Zoe's just fabulous.

Of course, the end of that exchange -

ZOE: Oh yeah, this is gonna go great.

MAL If anyone gets nosy, just, you know... shoot 'em.

ZOE: Shoot 'em?

MAL: Politely.


is very usable, but it hasn't come up for me yet.

I long to tell my less favorites professors:
"Ah hell. If I'd wanted schoolin' I'd'a gone to school."

I don't know if this one has already been submitted, but

"We're humped"

or

"I swallowed a bug"
