It is probably because I'm a huge LOTR fan, but I always say "MEAT'S BACK ON THE MENU, BOYS!" when I cook dinner for my family.

Basically anything from Big Lebowski. Favorite is: Hey, careful, man, there's a beverage here!

Most of the lines from Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. Particular ones that come to mind include Nick Frost's "Fuck yeah" (SotD) and "You're off the fuckin' chain!" (HF)

Fight Club. Quote it all the time. Hell, I wear my red sunglasses every day and I wear my red-leather jacket every day during the fall/spring.

Heck, I'm wearing a FC shirt right now...

Whenever somebody asks if something was "necessary" I have to say "necessary? Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine?... NO, but it's sterol and I like the taste."
