TV and Film Quotes that are “in jokes” within your family

[GivenchyDahhling]

I’m sure I’ve seen this done before (whether here or on Twitter) but it does always make me laugh to see the quotes people use in their day-to-day lives.

There’s a couple that spring to mind for me - firstly a later Friends episode where the father of the babies Monica and Chandler are going to adopt could be a murderer and Chandler refers to him as, “Shovvely Joe” - DH and I use that about anyone a bit shady!

And more recently there’s a few Brooklyn 99 episodes around a MLM scheme where they all greet each other saying “Boom Boom”; again DH and I say this to each other!

I also always pronounce Socrates as “So-crates” like in Bill and Ted, I’m sure anyone overhearing me would think I was a little bit dim.

There are definitely others, will add them if any come to mind.

We have a few!

"Nobody puts baby in the corner" - Dirty Dancing

"My arse" - Royle Family

"Computer says no" - Little Brittain

"Just eat some dust" - also Little Brittain

" Do you feel lucky punk?" - Dirty Harry

Just used this and thought of this thread. Whenever DH or I ask the other for anything slightly out of the ordinary the other will reply 'you want the moon on a stick' a la Fist of Fun.

‘What’s occurrin’?’ from Gavin and Stacey.

‘Feck! Arse! Girls!’ from Father Ted - usually appropo of nothing.

‘Have you tried turning it off and on again?’ IT Crowd.

‘BAT!’ What We Do In The Shadows.

‘Let’s have a look at what you could have won’ from Bullseye.

Thought of more.

‘Not today, Zurg!’ from Toy Story.

‘Patrick, your genius is showing.’ ‘Really? Where?’ if anyone says/does anything clever. From Spongebob.

And more...

‘To me, to you’ if we are moving furniture. It’s the law.

‘You’ve got a face like a pair of tits’ from Father Ted.

My 23 yo son has just said "We don't do duvets."

Ours are "shut up meg" from family guy
"I hurt ma arm" from Pitch Perfect 2 when something is heavy
"Title of your sex tape" from Brooklyn 99 whenever someone says anything that could be taken as an innuendo
There's loads more but I can't think of them off the top of my head. We basically only speak in quotes these days

We can randomly burst into " The marvellous mechanical mouse organ, heave heave heave in a mouse like voice for absolutely no reason at all. There is also " Well you took your bloody time didn't you? " from the film Champions. Our current fave is " we're not southern twats, we're not northern twats, we're Midlands twats. This is from Raised by Wolves. I also use You have two minutes, you have two minutes, but this is the time allowance at the start of a race for a motor sport we follow.

Whenever someone says the word difficult or says something will be easy, peasy lemon squeazy....House rules state you must reply with difficult, difficult lemon difficult (from the thick of it)

We regularly say that things are "absolutely farcical" after watching Jack Whitehall's, ^travels with my father,^and busting a gut laughing at his dad saying this when finding out they were sharing a train room with others .

Also, "Chance would be a fine thing, Lisa" and "Mirror signal manoeuvre!" from Peep Show.

Pivot - Friends

Fwends - Inbetweeners

Shit on it - Friday night dinner

Boiling - Friday night dinner

We have a few. I can't think of them all but a couple are.

When announcing its bed time one of may say, it's game over man, game over. (Said in the same way as the film)
From film alien

When someone leaves a disk in the coffee machine (when we had one) or in the Xbox one of us would say it takes the disk out of the machine (in the same voice as the scene obviously)
It comes from the silence of the lambs line it puts the lotion in the basket.

Thought of another silly one we say in my house- it's an oldie from the Two Ronnies; " It's big, it's black and it's furry. And I be afraid of it! "
Obviously said if someone's scared of something, and usually just the last part.

Kath and Kim for us

'Thats noice'

'Got your wallet Sharon' - when we are out and not sure who's paying

'toot suite'

And as per PP

'Tickets, money, passport!!!!'

“Passport Bridget. And pants”

“Couldn’t give a fuck Jones”

“We’ve gone on holiday by mistake”

“I am serious. And don’t call me Shirley”

Also loads of friends and Buffy ones.

Great thread!

‘Fuck you Jimmy’ is used a lot but no idea where we got this from!! Anyone know?

I also know every line from ‘Life of Brian’ and a fair few from ‘WIthnail’

Google suggests ‘better call Saul’ - but I’m sure we’ve been using it for over 10 years!?!

If we're having chilli DH will say 'ooo chilli' a la Homer Simpson. Also from the simpsons we have 'Don't anger the kitchen lady'

Any mention of anything Harry Potter related gets a Harry Pooooottteerrr in an American accent since we went to Universal a couple of years ago.

DH and BIL constantly quote Fawlty Towers and Peter Cook & Dudley Moore - mainly, TURN IT ON to MIL about her hearing aid! and 'I can't talk now cos he's here'- bit obscure but they find it hilarious even after 30 plus years!

We use 'I didn't know that' in a Michael Caine voice a lot after hearing an American actor doing a Michael Caine impression.

DD and I say 'you don't like tents?' like the little girl in The Holiday - whenever one of us doesn't like something.

We have recently adopted quite a few Tik Tok sayings that the DCs are always quoting. Mainly 'can I pet that dawg' !!!

Oh I forgot loads of Cabin Pressure ones! There are so many usable quotes in Cabin Pressure!

So many that I can't think of but in my family we all say 'trenter percenter', which I think is from The Day Today. Also 'pretty, pretty good' from Curb. 'Hello, Newman' and 'no soup for you!' from Seinfeld.

And when offered tea - 'no, we want to die of thirst' from Father Ted.

Makes you sound really tragic when you see it written down

I just remembered we always whisper 'who invited that kid?' if a guest brings a naff bottle of wine or a bad gift . It's from Toy Story 1 when one of Andy's birthday presents is bedsheets.

Stickier than a stick insect on a sticky bun.

In Germany they have no word for fluffy

Both Blackadder x

We mainly do Kath and Kim. So if you get some new clothes, "it's noice, unusual, different." If you getting new job etc "what does that pacifically entail?" And the most popular "look at moi" for a chat etc. My 5 year old does a brilliant "look at moi" because of this

@DeltaFlyer

Also burst into the song I have an idea from Molly and Mac if anyone utters those dreaded words. Back off ya spooky bitch from still game if something makes us jump

I didn't think anyone else did the Molly and Mac thing! It's sooo annoying but as soon as anyone says the words it's all me and DP do 😂
