Best opening line for sex ever?

Has anyone had a better line?

Ah, I'd forgotten about the Castro GTX jacket. Wonderful.

I too have been revisiting Alan after this thread... not a quote, but the best scene (possibly in comedy, ever) for my money is Alan's sales pitch to Dante Fires. Every exchange, every expression, every movement - utter perfection!

The Dante awards are in second place. "...and a copy of the Daily Express ... ooohh ... it's a gooood paper..." I think of this whenever I see the Express.

So... what's it like to be a lesbian?

You want me to sum up the experience of millions of women with one media-friendly soundbite?

If you could.

Gentlemen, choose your weapons! ... I’m offering to buy you a drink.

(To his adult son on the phone) You sound out of breath - have you been running? You’re 22 and you’re in bed with a girl, you’re wasting your life!

Right, dry skin cream. I'm having an attack of the old flakes again. This morning my pillow looked like a flapjack.
