Get your geek on
Jan. 28th, 2010 12:29 pmSo, [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] linked to Wired's 100 Quotes Every Geek Should Know. If you go through them and the comments, you'll notice some glaring ommisions (and some really lame inclusions, imo). So, geek-folks, what are your favourite geek-type quotes?
Mine are (with a concerted effort to make sure they weren't all Firefly quotes):
"Fire bad, tree pretty." - Buffy, "Graduation", B:TVS
"We have done the impossible and that makes us mighty." - Mal, "Serenity", Firefly (and Joss on the clip at the start of Serenity DVD)
"My name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die." - Inigo, The Princess Bride
"RESISTANCE IS USELESS!!!" - Vogon guard, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.
"Sir, I think you have a problem with your brain being missing." - Zoe, "The Train Job Firefly (and pretty much anything Zoe says, ever)
"Beer good. Foamy." - Buffy, "Beer Bad" - B:TVS
"Mrs. Krobopple (sp?), I glued my head to my shoulder." - Ralph Wiggum, The Simpsons
"It doesn't matter which lizard you vote for, the Lizard will always get in." - Douglas Adams again.
"Everybody. Is dead. Dave." - Holly, Red Dwarf
[singsong] "I'm gonna eat you little chicky..." "Oops, too slow, Chicken Marengo, you've gotta be faster than that to beat this cat!" - Cat, Red Dwarf
"I've been fished to death!" - Cat, Red Dwarf
"I reject your reality and substitute my own." - Adam, Mythbusters
"The world is a mess and I just need to... rule it." - Dr Horrible, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog
And the whole Jackal sequence with CJ in West Wing. There would be more WW quotes, only my brain isn't giving me any. :P
And I'll stop there for now so I leave room for other people. ;)
