Whenever the Amish are mentioned, I know we're hitching up the buggy, churning lot of butter, raise a barn Monday, soon raising another.

"Indeed"

makes me think of Teal'c from Star Gate

Whenever I see a "Fuck Cars" community post, I can't help but remember that dragons fucking cars is/was a thing, that there is a parody country song about a dude loving his truck intimately and that dudes have been caught sticking their dingdongs in car exhaust pipes.

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

Yup, same! Or I think of Two Trucks by Lemon Demon

  • Excellent
  • Bogus

We saw Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure when it first came out, not knowing anything about it, and it’s become a staple for us ever since.

  • Inconceivable
  • As you wish
  • Life is Pain
  • He’s only mostly dead

So many more great lines from The Princess Bride. The movie was introduced to me by some friends, and (it got complicated). I always remember the first time I saw it sitting in the living room smoking weed.

Do you know about this homemade remake? I adore the love and ingenuity that went into making it :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29s1yU3nGkQ

Speaking of PB me and wifey can't get away with saying "it's possible" without the other replying "pig"

Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up.

You'd be surprised how often people between 25 and 35 use Spongebob references.

An old coworker and I used to randomly say SpongeBob quotes to each other all the time.

[–] meekah@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Why didn't you keep in touch, sounds like a fun person

We still send memes to each other sometimes

Often when I read β€œcontroversy” I hear Eminem’s song β€œWithout Me” in my head.

[–] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago

I must be old, it always makes me think of Prince.

"Thanks for the memories." I don't feel like I need to explain that one.

If a website ends in '.net' I'll say "website.net. It's dot com!" and then no one gets my homestar runner reference.

Dude!

Reminds me of the movie without the car.

Band camp.

Similar movie, with some of the same actors.

So many words and phrases from the president's speech in the Independence Day movie. My brother has the whole thing memorized, he even did it as a monologue at a speech thing once.

So when I hear a key word or phrase that is part of that speech, I expect to hear my brother dramatically launch into the whole thing even though he now lives halfway across the country from me and he stopped doing the bit every time years ago.

"In less than one hour", "mankind", "united in our common interests", "we will not go quietly", "today we celebrate", "annihilation".
