25 Movie Quotes That Are Perfect For Insertion Into Daily Conversation

My friends and I are huge fans of movie-watching, so for us it comes naturally to shove a movie quote or a song lyric into conversation where they fit, but no fear! For those of you that aren't the best at puns, don't worry, we've got your back. Here's a list of movie/song quotes that can fit perfectly into everyday conversations:

1. "Chloe, get your head out of your ass, it's not a hat!!" -Aubrey, "Pitch Perfect"

Usually used to describe a zoned out or otherwise oblivious person.

2. "So... do you like... cheese...?" -Duke, "She's the Man"


This one can be used at almost any given point in any conversation, especially introductions and awkward silences.

3. "Mother, wake up from that dream of yours, this isn't 1930." -Amber, "Hairspray"

This one fits perfectly when a friend is trying to talk you out of something that may (or may not) be a terrible idea.

4. "Get ready for a whole lotta ugly comin' at you from a never ending parade of stupid." -Maybelle, "Hairspray"

Self-explanatory.I was trying to keep it to one quote per movie, but I just couldn't pass this one up.

5. "Hiiii." -Stitch, "Lilo & Stitch"

Also self-explanatory; one of my personal favorites. More often than not, accompanied by at least the hand gesture, if not the face too.

6. "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn." -Rhett Butler, "Gone with the Wind"

This is one of the most famous classic movie quotes, and can simply be a very blunt way to say that you give zero fu--...damns. Yeah. Damns.

7. "Memo to me: Memo to me, maim you after my meeting." -Hades, "Hercules"

Anyone who knows me well knows that I love this movie and can recite every word along with it. Anyway, this Hades quote is perfect for when you have had enough and are ready to smack someone but have somewhere to be.

8. "I'm a damsel, I'm in distress, I can handle this. Have a nice day!" -Megara, "Hercules"

(I told you, I love this movie.) Meg is one of the most badass female Disney characters ever. One of her most well-known quotes, this can be used to tell someone-- even yourself-- that you are a strong, independent woman who perfectly capable of getting through the situation. Heck, use it as a mantra when you are under a lot of stress and/or when you want to tell the patriarchy to step off.

9. "Have fun playing intramural Wii Golf this season, dick face!" -Bianca Piper, "The DUFF"

This is clearly very applicable to daily life. It works very well as the preface to a heated dramatic exit, and the name at the end is more mature than "buttface."

10. "You know what, that's it. Dishonor. Dishonor on your whole family! ... Dishonor on you, dishonor on your Cow...!" -Mushu, "Mulan."

Feel free to change this one according to whom you are speaking, because not everyone has a cow (well, actually a horse, but still).

11. "Sorry I'm late, I was saving the world. You know how it is." -Scott Lang (Ant-Man), "Ant-Man"

Let's face it, this is a much more interesting excuse for your tardiness than "I was lip syncing while getting ready and got way too into it."

12. "Okay, lots of love... moving on." -Ella, "Ella Enchanted"

Good for any situation of excessive PDA, or perhaps, more specifically, when your roommate is Skyping with their significant other and they argue about who loves whom more, etc.

13. "How's it going gossip girls? The CW just called; you're canceled!" -Kevin the mattress salesman, "The Internship"

I know for a fact that any "Gossip Girl" fanatic like myself will love (and be slightly bitter about) this sassy way to get someone to shut the hell up. Side note: if nothing else, this movie is just amazing because of Dylan O'Brien.

14. "When are we gonna eat spaghetti?" -Ethan Craft, "The Lizzie McGuire Movie"

Don't be Kate; we all love carbs and especially spaghetti... so uh, in the words of Ethan, when are we gonna eat?!

15. "Little boys who play with fire get their fingers burned." -Tanya, "Mamma Mia"

The ultimate way to convey that girls are superior to boys, and yes, we will kick your ass (or at least terrorize you in some other way)

16. "He ain't got time for yo problems! He busy! With Korean shit!" -The Captain, "21 Jump Street."

Sent a friend this gif once and he immediately understood that I wanted him to leave me alone because I had other stuff to do. Works like a charm every time.

17. "Chemistry's the one with the shapes and shit, right?" -Jenko, "21 Jump Street"

Relatable to most college students' daily thoughts... I'm not the only one, right?! Okay, I'm pretty sure we all know the difference between geometry and "app chemistry", but sometimes ya feel a little overwhelmed by schoolwork... it's okay... just Jenko it out, man. PS I'm obviously failing at the 'one quote per movie' thing.

18. "He walks like Dracula, silent as the dead." -Helga the nanny, "The Pacifier"

I agree, she's sketchy... but I like to use this quote when I get asked the question "Where did he/she go?" It does a pretty decent job of freaking people out.

19. "Stick it in your ear, LaFleur!" -White Goodman, "Dodgeball"

Who else would you quote when in a comeback battle? Duh!

20. "Unlock the door, bitch!" -Norah, "Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist"

Personally I use this one quite a lot. Works for rooms, houses, cars... you name it. Another great quote from this movie: "Let's dance, douchebag!" followed by punching said douchebag right in the stomach.

21. "Nah dude, all I remember is like... pink jelly..." -Troy Bolton, "High School Musical"

Good for a joke when you can't remember what you did the night before... whattya gonna do besides laugh it off, amiright?

22. "I just wanna get in bed and watch Friends all day." -Schmidt, "22 Jump Street"

Just like Schmidt, carrying his shoes, walking home after a night out.

23. "You're allergic to pine nuts. And the full spectrum of human emotion." -Andrew Paxton, "The Proposal"

Not gonna lie, I'm allergic to the full spectrum of human emotion too, so I feel you girl.

24. "I laughed so hard I fell of my dinosaur!" -Dale, "Stepbrothers"

I like to think this can be used in a sarcastic or completely serious sense.

25. "Do you wanna do something fun? Wanna go to taco bell?" -Karen, "Mean Girls"

These words can totally cheer up anyone, except Regina George...

Bonus: "Just because you have the emotional range of a teaspoon!" -Hermione, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"

Similar to "The Proposal's" featured quote, but a little bit more accusatory.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
