Default Have you ever stole a line from a movie character and used it in real life?

I've done it a few times

On my first date with a girl I took out my guitar and said "here, let me play you a song... you dance."

and she said "Okay, sure."

then I said "But you have to dance goofy because I'm going to sing goofy.... I can only sing goofy..."

Embarrassing and pathetic, I showed her the movie a few days later, haha. She thought it was funny, thank God.

Ever try to like impersonate somebody you thought was cool in movies or something? Maybe i'm just a movie nerd...

About 80% of the things I say.

I watched the TV show "The Young Ones" so many times as a child that the dialogue is imprinted onto my personality. I quote it all the time by accident.

I used the "Suck me beautiful" line from American Pie when I was in High School. It actually worked.

There have been numerous occasions where I've given a response that seemed normal, but I was consciously imitating the way it was said in a particular film.

- "That's disgusting" ala Annette Bening in American Beauty.
- "See you in about an hour or so" ala Franklin in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.
- "Not really" ala Rose in Inferno.

Oh, and I used to quote American Psycho to girls I barely knew at school just to freak them out.

OH. And my girlfriend was looking in the mirror recently so I stepped up behind her and said, 'You look fine,' just as Alicia did in Burton's Batman. She turned to me and said, 'I didn't ask.' I was very proud.

I harbor a murderous desire to beat up ANYONE who says
-"You had me at hello"
- "I just threw up in my mouth a little "
- or that shampoo commercial that still ends with "I'll have what she's having",
and genuinely thinks they made it up themselves.
(People....did we not own VCR's in the 90's??)

Most of my borrowed quotes tend to be from Warner Bros. cartoons ("Duck Amuck", the majority of them--"Would it be too much to ask if we could make up our minds?").
Although I can count three instances in the last week alone where I found myself borrowing Charles Foster Kane's "I think it might be fun to run a newspaper", as symbolic statement of an ill-advised personal indulgence.

I quote movies all the time as well. One of my favorite ones is from Snatch:

"In the immortal words of the virgin Mary, come again?"

All day every day.

Movie quotes are a large part of my everyday vocabulary. Sometimes its intentional, sometimes I do it without even realizing it. Its just ingrained in me.

Several years ago, when I was starting a new job, I overheard one of the unit managers say, "I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit.", when talking about a project.

I turned to him and said, "It's the only way to be sure."

It's amazing how such a little thing can get one in with the right crowd at work.

I quote Snatch too but a different one, when someone likes me if I like dogs I repeat to them in a very bad gypsy accent "Ya like dags?". I had no idea what Pitt's character said.

I also like to quote Princess Bride when someone missuses a word constantly.
"You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means"

Every time my wife wants to go to a drive thru I say: They **** you at the drive-thru, okay? They **** you at the drive-thru! They know you're gonna be miles away before you find out you got ****ed! They know you're not gonna turn around and go back, they don't care.

Funny story about that. The summer my father took me to see LW2, my mother took me to McDonald's via the drive-thru & I didn't get my Big Mac. My father came home & saw I was eating a hotdog with Micky D's fries & asked "Did you get ****ed at the drive-thru" He was kidding but that's exactly what happened.

I also say from LW2
You dumb son of a *****
I got a bad reputation, like sometimes I just go nuts like now ha ha
I don't give a ****
You're lucky, I have to live with that (I say this more than I care to admit)

And before I got married
She made me want to go out and buy rubbers.

Whenever my daughter starts dating I'll use
(boyfriend's name) I got a gun.

For a few weeks after Anchorman came out all of us in middle school would quote answer ever question in class with "I could be mistaken, but I believe that it is an old old ship during the Civil War era"
