55 Lines From 'Kid Gorgeous,' That You Can't Help But Quote Endlessly

In This Article:

If you haven't heard of John Mulaney already, once you've read this list, you won't be able to wait to binge his sets on Netflix. Basically, if this is your introduction to Mulaney, you're welcome. But for real, one day, I randomly decided to watch his comedy specials on Netflix, and now I can't get over them. I quote them far too often but am definitely not ashamed of that. For some scale of his humor, I have compiled this list of 55 lines that make me laugh every time I hear them. Also, this is just 1 of 3 specials of his I have seen. Not to mention that I just found out there is an earlier one, so now I've made my weekend plans.....

Mulaney's comedy is a great mix of Chicago accents, hilarious happenings in his own life, with a few bits and pieces included that will definitely catch your attention. If you are looking for a funny and straightforward comedian to watch, give Mulaney a chance. It's refreshing to be able to just laugh without cringing at personal views or trying to get through what should be warned before-hand as a rant. You don't have to agree with the one political section of the show, but you will agree that it is hilarious. Great comedian and a great show, well deserving of its recent Emmy win!

I hope you find these quotes as funny as I do, and that they will soon end up in your repertoire.

1. Whoa. What the fuck is this?

2. My Mommy, so shut the fuck up!

3. I dare you to do it. I want you to do it.

4. Street Smarts!

5. "See you at improv practice."

6. Take your Epi-Pen. Take your goddamn Epi-Pen, and get out of my house!

7. If we must go on with Salt alone, we will go on with Salt alone.

8. Fucking what?!

9. The bread of God is bread.

10. Hey, do you want me to kill that guy for you?

11. That I'm in an abusive relationship with little Miss Jesus Christ over here...

12. I don't remember that in Hamilton.

13. Ever been to the goddamn zoo?

14. I think they're turning left.

15. I've got nice hooves and a long tail, I'm a horse!

16. Why are we even talking about Penelope? Or whatever her name was?!

17. When you get kidnapped. Not if. When.

18. "Yes." Which is the best answer.

19. I know all that. How do you know all that?

20. Ah, none of us know our fathers.

21. I didn't know he knew how to do that.

Giphy

22. No!

23. Yeah!

24. Not funny!

25. It came off as if he definitely killed that little girl!

26. How are you better than a Nazi?

27. This is a horse. Loose in a hospital.

29. Shut up, you're all gonna die!

30. "Hello. My wife is a bitch. And I don't like her!"

Giphy

31. Oh, you mean like having friends?

32. Um...at the time,

33. You can get these at any haberdashery.

Giphy

34. Tonight's no good, how 'bout Wednesday?

35. Buy a money clip? Engraved, question mark?

36. Brush your teeth. Now boom, orange juice. That's life.

Giphy

37. Is it an E, or is it a 3? That's up to ye.

38. Nah, nah, nah sister. You're not getting me to no secondary location!

39. I gave you more money than the Civil War cost, and you spent it already?

Giphy

40. My wife is a bitch, and I like her so much!

41. Hey, it's been a while since you gave us some money. Hey, it's been a while since you've housed and taught me!

42. That's what I thought you'd say, you dumb fucking horse!

Giphy

43. I paid $120,000 for someone to tell me to read Jane Austen, and then I didn't.

44. Thanksgiving!

45. Was there ever even a ghost Mother, or was the dead Victorian girl you saw just me all along?

46. "Monkey, monkey, monkey man. Monkey, monkey, monkey man."

47. Salt-N-......Pepa!

48. I don't care for these new Nazis. And you can quote me on that.

49. Space bar. Indent. Space bar.

50. No, I don't know anyone on the ship.

Giphy

52. Now it's time for the Robot Test!

53. I have fired the horse catcher.

54. It's an hour!

55. God can't hear you!

Now that you've read this list, you're probably wondering the context behind these lines. Fair question. It might also be helpful to remind you that all of these are just the skeleton behind a single show. Mulaney effortlessly brings all of the topics of his comedy into a complete, and now Emmy Winning set that I personally have watched countless times. You're never really sure where the show is going, not even based on the title. but, that just makes it all the more interesting and entertaining. There is no way Mulaney could be considered, "Not funny!"

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
