âMy my my my Godddd!!â (I think that might be my husbandâs fave riff, given how often he quotes it.)
Joel: âIf you know me and I know I doâŠâ
Joel: If youâre like me; and I know I amâ
Oh, sweet mystery of life! At last, I found you!
Probably my favorite line of all time is this one. I remember being introduced in middle school math class. Chuck Jones' The Dot and the Line - A Romance in Lower Mathematics - YouTube
(ETA: And now the name of the topic has been changed so this joke makes no sense. Alas.
ETA2: After moving the thread, the kind mods changed the title back? Aww, you didnât have to.)
The concession line. Heyoooo! Woof. Woof. Woof. Woof.
I am serious, and donât call me Shirley.
That poor Mom in The Creeping Terror had a nice looking line but it didnât save her.
I originally merged this thread into the Favorite Riff thread, but on second thought, I considered that the topic of the thread was broad enough that it could be expanded to include all lines from MST3K, such as from the host segments (and maybe even supplemental material such as commercials, Turkey Day bumpers, Kickstarter events, DVD bonus features, etc.).
With that in mind, Iâd like to go with Frankâs line to Dr. Forrester about the SOL crew from Cave Dwellers: âI mean, we have it worse than them. We have to watch YOU watching the film.â
I guess bringing up what I think was a Conga line in the Swamp Diamonds opener is right out then. : o
For something a bit more literal, we could always go with the blooper from the invention exchange in First Spaceship to Venus, where Kevin Murphy screams âLINE!?â from off-camera when the Mads forget what to say!
Itâs tough to think of a line that sums up Servo more succinctly than âIâm the wind, baby!â
Iâm going to wax nerdy for a moment: âThe world is given to me only once, not one existing and one perceived. Subject and object are only one. The barrier between them cannot be said to have broken down as a result of recent experience in the physical sciences, for this barrier does not exist.â Erwin Schrodinger (Against the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics)
Okay, now, back to other things.
âIt would take a scientist to explain it and Iâm from the humanities.â
OrâŠ
âThereâs a sale at Penneyâs!â
OrâŠ
âWhat if he goes out there and melts down a busload of nuns. How would you like to write the headline on that one?â
âNun Soup?â
âBEN!â
Mike as Megaweapon reported that Killdozer got temperamental when Clint Walker didnât want to run lines with him.
This one goes outside of the boundaries of MST3K proper, but I always dug Joelâs summation of the fanbase from the This Is MST3K special:
âWe never say âWhoâs going to get this?â We say âThe right people will get this.â â
âPeter must be walking around denying everyone this morningâ - Servo, Jack Frost, as cock crows and crows andâŠ
I laughed my head off over this - and itâs such a sharp quip, not something youâd hear in other television comedies. I think thatâs what I loved about MST3K, itâs capacity to surprise me, sure, they could do a funny fart joke, but theyâd also go off in unexpected, and clever directions.
Might be one of the best ways Dr. Forrester ever introduced a movie:
It has nothing to do with Pods.
It has nothing to do with People.
It has everything to do with hurting.
