Just post a quote every once in a while for discussion.

Here's one: "Microsoft: Up twenty points."
"Yahoo!"
"Yahoo: Down twenty points."
"What is this crap?"
"Fox News: Bankrupt"

Homer and stock reporter. Always a classic.

"And we're going to...live."

Red Dwarf, the big squid episode, while the scanners are malfunctioning. It's much funnier actually seeing it, believe me.

I imagine the Red Dwarf crew huddled around a scanner, while one of the characters reads off it, surprise in his voice as he says 'live'.

But then again, that's because I've seen Red Dwarf. There's a lot of that sort of thing in Red Dwarf.

Matt

The "well, it probably is deja-vu - it sounds like it" scene from Future Echoes is very funny :)

She doesn't, but I was unable to track the quote in "proper" language. In short amount of time, and without hurting my lazyness, that is.

It may be that your sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Eagles may soar, but weasels aren't sucked into jet engines.

If you must choose between two evils, pick the one you've never tried before.

I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

Some people are alive only because it's illegal to kill them.

High Priest: "We shall read things off you!"
Crowd: "And do them."

"You there! Obey the Fist!" - invader zim
"gobble gobble gobble" - gir (from invader zim)

the above two are only funny if you've seen the show Invader Zim.

<xterm> The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
really! why not?

In math class:
Some Guy said:
On my way here, I ran over this 15 pound squirel by accident!

walking back from english class:
guy 1 said:Do you know how many hot girls there are in Hollywood?
guy 2 said:They're ALL hot girls!
guy 1 said:Well, in two years you'll be sick of 'em!
I think he's wrong...

sigh. I know I'm replying to myself...but, I'm bored. and it's 4:25am.

this is by far the most amusing quote (found here) I've heard in a long time:

"There isn't enough matter to print a Googolplex on (and this fact is unlikely to change)...But who said we have to print Googolplex in decimal? If we switch to base Googolplex, you can print it simply as 10."

I SAY WE DO IT! 10.

Enjoys work, but likes the beach more.
She found a good way
To combine work and play:
She sells C shells by the seashore.

Ah! My favourite Latin quote!

Ok, here's one

Si fallatis officium, quaestor infitias eat se quicquam scire de factis vestris

-If you fail, the secretary will disavow all knowledge of your activities.

If you want a genuine Latin quote;

Timendi causa est nescire

-Ignorance is the cause of fear - Seneca.

Latin quotes, eh?
An old friend of mine who studied latin taught me this one (I'm not sure if it's written exactly like this, but it should be close):
Abi in malem crucem
It's basically an insult meaning 'Go crucify yourself' (Hmmm, how do you even do that? Must be pretty difficult unless you get someone to help you...). There was a story behind it as well (someone had said it to someone else after this had done something...), but I unfortunately don't remember any of that.

I prefer the latter as its a good excuse not to go to work on Monday." - anon

"Apparently, the heads aren't the only parts of the body that DODRIO has three of."- PokeMon Sapphire : Dodrio entry
