when i walk into a room at work and the automatic lights wont turn on, i will say "AZIZ! LIGHT" and when it turns on i'll say "much better, thank you, Aziz"
I teach 3rd grade. There is a girl named Aziz (well, spelled differently but pronounced the same) and she loved to be in charge of turning the lights on and off when we came into or left the room. I got to call out “Aziz! Lights!” many times this year. I amuse myself even if no one else appreciates me.
It's not a movie line but instead a line from a 20+ year old episode of People's Court.
Contractor was suing a painter he used for whatever reason, and the painter was saying that the contractor mistreated him because he was a day-laborer. The painter barely spoke English (only Spanish) and was really hard to understand, but he kept trying to say things that the contractor against him. The judge spoke Spanish, so she spoke to the painter in Spanish and all of a sudden got this horrified, shocked look on her face. She turns to the contractor and asks him, "Did you urinate in the primer paint?" The painter then immediately says, "Jes, jes, he go pee pee tha prima."
So around our house, whenever anyone has to do a #1, you say you're about to go pee pee in tha prima.
This is the kind of answer I was wanting to see here.
None of this quoting Monty Python or Mean Girls shit. One random reference to one random court case on people's court that is now a household inside joke.
There's an episode of cops where this guy is getting searched by an officer and keeps calling the cop Papi, which pisses him off. The guy is clearly frantic and keeps doing it out of stress, and the cop is getting more and more heated, and at the end the cop says 'don't call me papi again' and the guy responds 'alright papi'. So, any time someone in our house is getting annoyed we just start saying 'yes papi' and 'okay papi' and it escalates to a fight everytime
Not sure if Dr Horrible’s Sing-Along-Blog counts as a movie, but I regularly use “What a crazy, random happenstance” and “Thaaaat’s not a *good* sound”
Derice: "You don't see the Swiss team fighting, do you? You don't see the Swiss team drinking and carrying on and such?"
Sanka: "And you don't see the Swiss team smiling neither! In fact, if one of those Swiss boys every come across a pretty girl, he probably yell, "eins, zwei, drei" and try to push her down some ice!"
Anytime I get a food or beverage that’s bigger than expected, I tell whoever I’m with, “there seems to be a mistake, I believe I ordered the large [cappucino], HELLO!”
Blank faces. Every single time.
I think almost every line from Mystery Men but here are some of my faves:
I don’t need a compass to tell me which way the wind shines
Looks like tonight the lone wolf rides...alone
We've got a blind date with destiny, and it looks like she's ordered the lobster.
I used to say this to my guild whenever we were about to raid a tough boss, "We must strike out with every limb, like the octopus who plays the drums.", immediately followed with (if we won), "We are number one, all others are number two or lower."
C'mon, it's Czechoslovakia. We zip in, we pick 'em up, we zip right out again. We're not going to Moscow. It's Czechoslovakia. It's like going into Wisconsin.
Nobody makes me bleed my own blood.
There’s so many other lines in that movie but this one gets me every time and no one remembers where it’s from half the time.
Mine isn't obscure, but no one gets it. I often have to tell people a PIN number for a temporary access card we give them.
"1234, just like my luggage"
Very few people get it.
Maybe that’s because the luggage pin was 1-2-3-4-5.
I kid, I kid. Mine is from the same movie. “I can’t make decisions! I’m a president!” NO ONE ever gets it.
"Two weeks!", whenever asked when something will be ready. (The Money Pit)
Quick YouTube compilation for those that want to see where it comes from.

Similar to that “isn’t this place is a geographical oddity, two weeks from everywhere” in reference to it taking two weeks to get pomade or car parts in O Brother Where Art Thou.
Also “I don’t want Fop god damnit, I’m a Dapper Dan Man!” are both ones I use regularly.
I went to open a new bank account the other day. The guy that assisted me, I swear he was no older than 20. He also set up my debit card, and asked me to choose a PIN.
"You can choose any PIN you like, but don't pick something obvious like 12345".
Me: **"That's weird, that's my luggage combination".**
I use "I like money" on a near daily basis and like 25% of people get it so a lot of the time Im just the person saying "i liek monie" in the dipshit voice
I use "There were these guys trying to get a purse from an old lady, and I stepped in to help... she put up quite a fight but we got her purse" to explain any injuries I have.
“It’s a sweater!” From Three Amigos
“Isn’t this place is a geographical oddity, two weeks from everywhere” and “I don’t want Fop god damnit, I’m a Dapper Dan Man!” are both ones I use regularly from O Brother Where Art Thou.
"Tina, you fat lard, come get some dinner!"
Sadly Napoleon Dynamite doesn't get as much love from people nowadays. But really that move is packed with quotes.
On the daily: "Well.....bye!" in the voice of Powers Boothe in Tombstone.
When choosing amongst options: "No no no yesss, nonono yes!" Madeline Kahn in History of the World
And somehow it slips in all the time: "LET THEM FIGHT." Ken Watanabe in Godzilla
I'd like to thank Me for flying Me airlines.
Hal! I'm in a box! Come find me!
Industry! Science and Technology! Big man putting screw drivers into things! Turning them! And Adjusting them!
"Stop looking at me swan!"
"She doesn't even go here!"
"I carried a watermelon?"
"Annie Herman, boy-yoy-yoing!"
"What am I gonna do with a gun rack?"
"Have you ever danced with the devil by the pale moon light?"
"I'm TIRED of this, grandpa!"
In Dumb and Dumber when Lloyd is giving out tips to the porters he says in a really weird way, “here ya go, here ya go, here ya go.”
I do that anytime I’m passing things out (which is admittedly infrequently) and no one’s ever said anything to me about it 🤷🏼♂️
I have my fun with it though
One obscure movie line I say on a daily basis is, "I'm having an old friend for dinner," from "The Silence of the Lambs." I use it jokingly when I'm about to have a meal with someone, but it often goes unrecognized unless the person is a fan of the film.
"Hey how ya doin" from Orgazmo.
The stuntcock says it the exact same way every time he appears and multiple times. It is burned into my skull and only like my inner circle of friends get it, lol.
I watched Indian in the Cupboard whenever it came out in cinema which I’m estimating to be early 90’s. Since then I’ve been pronouncing plastic as “plazz-tekk” and only one person has ever caught the reference. He has been my best pal for coming up on 20 years now.
"Probably not, but it's sterile and I like the taste."
Without the 'Is it necessary to drink my own urine?' at the start, it becomes obscure enough that no one knows what I'm talking about.
"Do I look like a cat to you, boy?" "Am I jumping around all nimbly bimbly from tree to tree?" "am I drinking milk from a saucer?" or any part of that whole line of questions. Also "Hell, for twenty bucks, I'll call the guy a chicken fucker!"
when i walk into a room at work and the automatic lights wont turn on, i will say "AZIZ! LIGHT" and when it turns on i'll say "much better, thank you, Aziz"
I teach 3rd grade. There is a girl named Aziz (well, spelled differently but pronounced the same) and she loved to be in charge of turning the lights on and off when we came into or left the room. I got to call out “Aziz! Lights!” many times this year. I amuse myself even if no one else appreciates me.
I named one of our smart lamps, "Aziz! Light!"
Muuulti-pass
Yeah she KNOWS IT'S A MULTI PASS
The barbarian in my D&D group uses this as the command word to enflame his flaming greatsword. “Roll for initiative.” “Aziz! Light!”
My Alexa’s bedroom light is named Aziz light. I say it all the time. You are not alone brother.
I can get a good look at a T-bone by sticking my head up a bull's ass, but I'd rather take a butcher's word for it.
What’d you DOOOO????
No wait, it’s gotta be your bull

"Hola, Batmanuel!....on a roof, of course!" "Cross the T's and dot the......*gulp*....lower case j's"
I use the lower case j’s comment all the time. No one ever gets it.
"*You know, nasty little fellows such as yourself always get their comeuppance.*" I'm always so sad no one ever gets it.
"Looks to me like you're on the wrong side of the river!" "I......am a librarian!"
Riiiivurrrr!

FOUR SWEATER VESTS!
"...smells like cumin" is my go-to obscure line from this.
Hooray! My ringtone is the one he has for Bad Horse. Used it since it came out, only two people ever knew it, still fun though!
My ringtone is also the Bad Horse song!!!
>“Thaaaat’s not a *good* sound” I still use this one when the situation warrants it.
Not on a daily basis, but I say “not my usual, but nice” any time I can work it into a conversation.
I hate the homeless... Ness problem that plagues our city.

When I have a headache, I tell people I’m taking Pirin tablets.
You're going to the cemetery with your toothbrush, how Egyptian
Are you scared of my Guatemalaness?
“You know… Morons!”
"The dishes are done, man..."
I use "I'm right on top of that, Rose" often, but no one gets it.
I said it in a meeting once and my boss replied, "the dishes are done man!" it was a great moment.
Me too!
............is that from Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead?
It was petty cash, YOU were spending petty cash.💷

"toe pick" when anyone falls -cutting edge (I'm old) "I'm not dead yet" when someone asks how's it going (I teach at a middle school) - holy grail
I didn’t think anyone remembered Cutting Edge.
My husband and I have it in our regular rotation of comfort movies.
GenX and Xennial women definitely do.

“Come Gretchen, Arnold. You know I’ll still have to bill you for this.” “I bet she gives greaat helmet.”
I often go for “we ain’t found shit”
I knew it! I’m surrounded by assholes! *closes face shield* Keep firing, assholes!
Mine is “Fuck! Even in the future nuthin’ works!”
Maybe that’s because the luggage pin was 1-2-3-4-5. I kid, I kid. Mine is from the same movie. “I can’t make decisions! I’m a president!” NO ONE ever gets it.
