After much consideration, the one I quote the most is Sheldon from Big Bang Theory: "Saturday night is laundry night". It just so covers me when I'm introverting on the weekend.

I'm guessing "Pivot!" may be a popular choice!

Red Dwarf: *in the shower having just gone through the stasis leak - “Do you mind, this is the annual general meeting of the agrophobics society”

Also - Lister: Holly, what’s a stasis leak?
Holly: A stasis leak is a leak right, in stasis
Lister: You don’t know, do you Hol?
Holly: Have’t got a clue

oh and the whole scene with Mr Flibble 😂

Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking barrels - “you’re carrying a wasted girl and an industrial sized bag of fertiliser. You don’t exactly look like your average horti-fucking-culturist”

Stewart Pearson:
I've spent ten years detoxifying this party. It's been a bit like renovating an old, old house, yeah? You can take out a sexist beam here, a callous window there, replace the odd homophobic roof tile. But after a while you realise that this renovation is doomed. Because the foundations are built on what I can only describe as a solid bed of cunts!

I still shout this at Tory's on the TV!

from the film Snatch when Tyrone reverses into a van and Vinny questions him

Tyrone:
I didn't see it.

Vinny:
It's a two fucking ton van Tyrone. Its not as though its a bag of fucking peanuts now is it?

Tyrone:
It was at a funny angle.

Vinny:
It's behind you Tyrone. When you reverse, things come at you from behind.

Royle Family. Jim sat in his chair pulling his underwear out. Someone chides him for doing so. “I paid a pound for these pants and I’ve got 50p’s worth stick up my arse”

From Derry Girls one we seem to use regularly:
I think it's fair to say Clare (or insert child's name) that we all just lost a little respect for you there.

kenadams86 · 28/06/2022 20:39

Killing eve "
I once saw a rat there drinking from a can of coke, both hands. Extraordinary!"

Really tickles me 😂

There’s so much room for activities

Crinkle77 · 28/06/2022 20:42

Blanche in Corrie. Ken was talking about Peter and said he thought he'd turned a corner with tackling his alcoholism. Blanched dryly replies 'well let's hope there's not a pub on it 😂. Fucking tickled me that.

Literally all of Derry Girls.

"Who put 50p in the eejit?"

"Your face should be a criminal offence!"

"Right, you take his legs.. I’ll take his… legs."

Puzzledandpissedoff · 28/06/2022 22:41

Another one for the oldies, from Up Pompeii:

Ludicrus Sextus: "Ah, sweet (daughter) Erotica ... so chaste"

Lurcio: "And so easily caught"

upinaballoon · 28/06/2022 23:14

In "Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads" Bob was talking about the old days and he said, "Back then, you'd have had a frog if it had kept still for long enough, Terry."
