Is there a line from a movie that really resonated with you but when you say it most people don't get the reference?

Mine is from an early 2000s film called Vanilla Sky.

No, just endless Simpsons references that fall on deaf ears.

You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is...never try.

Oh, don't worry. Their idea of wit is nothing more than an incisive observation humorously phrased and delivered with impeccable timing.

Me to a Chinese teacher called Nick: 'Hello everybody! Hi Doctor Nick!'

I have three kids and no money, why can't I have no kids an three money!

The all ighty ..ollar?

Oh hahaha I get it!

I get the best eye-rolls followed by smiles from my wife when I say: “you choo-choo choose me?”

You’re failing, Seymour! What’s with you and failing?!

He's not just some guy, marge, he's a carny. And part of a noble tradition. Carnys built this country!

... The carnival part of it anyway.

I'm good for like the first 10 seasons, which are the best 10 seasons. I grew up on it and rewatched a lot of them as an adult. It's funnier as an adult.

Yeah seasons 3 through 8 were the Conan O'Brien years. That's the golden era.

But there are excellent episodes outside of that. I personally think "SE12 EP18 - Trilogy of Errors" is a top 5 episode. It's the one where marge cuts off homer's thumb, Milhouse finds fireworks in a cave and Lisa builds a party grammar robot. I haven't seen enough of seasons beyond like 20 or so to comment on them, but Ive heard they've actually been hitting a solid stride since the pandemic.
