Your favorite quote from the movie "Office Space"

[kayleybeth]

DH bought the DVD of Office Space today and we're watching it now. Damn that's a funny movie. What's your favorite quote? There are so many funny ones, but I think this one is my favorite:

Peter:
"I cannot believe what a bunch of nerds we are. We're looking up 'money laundering' in the dictionary."

[eileen_d]

1. Not a quote, but the dream sequence

when it shows "the boss" (I forget his name) humping Jenifer Aniston while drinking a cup of coffee. The movie was funny enough but this had me almost lose bladder control...

[baldguy]

3. Lumburgh

[Blade]

2. "It's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care." - Peter Gibbons

and to answer the person above, the boss' name is Bill Lumbergh.

[ronzo]

4. Not to be confused with Ron Lumburgh... n/t

ed: or Lumbergh

[coloradodem2005]

5. I like the Michael Bolton Line.

"There was nothing wrong with that name, until I was 12 years old and that no-talent ass-clown became famous and started winning grammys.

[kayleybeth]

7. That's a good one

I also like the one where the Bobs tell Lumbergh how impressed they were with Peter:

"We had a chance to meet this young man, and boy that's just a straight shooter with upper management written all over him."

[anti_shrub]

6. "PC Load Letter?

What the fuck does that mean?!?"

[dwckabal]

8. Did you see...the memo about this?

It looks like somebody's got a case of the Mondays!

We get caught laundering money, we're not going to white collar resort prison. No, no, no. We're going to Federal 'Pound me in the Ass' prison!

16. Watch your cornhole

That movie NEVER gets old, in fact the longer you work at a "real job" the funnier it gets. The article in Enterainment Weekly about Office Space as one of the greatest cult classics ever was great. Apparently, the producers never gave Judge a pieceful moment and wanted him to change everything. They were pissed when it bombed in the theatres and said all sorts of nasty things about it. Then people actually watched it, loved it, and made it one of the best selling Dvd's of all time. They talked to one of the producers in the article and he wanted them to try to convince Judge to make a sequel. Judge pretty much said no fucking way, because they were such assholes.

19. If you don't already own it

Buy the DVD! My DH found it in the bargain bin (brand new no less!) for like $15. There are no "extras" on the DVD (at least not on the one we have) but it is definitely worth owning. I never see it played on cable anymore except the edited version on Comedy Central, which sucks. The unedited version is the only way to watch it. I've seen this movie probably a dozen times and it still makes me laugh my ass off.

[VelmaD]

12. Also not a line but...

the sequence where they stomp on and generally beat the hell out of that fax machine/printer/whatever.

[kayleybeth]

13. And let's not forget

"You know, I've never really liked paying bills. I don't think I'm gonna do that anymore, either."

[eileen_d]

14. Also

"How can you say paper jam when there is no paper jam?"

The guys in my office used to say that to the printer (which was next to my desk) all the time.

[daria_g]

17. Karl Rove..

Looks like one of the Bobs, doesn't he?

"I'd say in a given week I only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual work."

[Arbustosux]

18. "Youv'e been missing alot of time lately Peter"

"well, I wouldn't say I was missing it"

a classic movie

[stanwyck]

37. You beat me to it

21. Can I get a WITNESS????????

[kayleybeth]

24. Classic!

[Spirochete]

22. "Why should I change?

HE'S the one that sucks"

"I'll have to stand in the unemployment office, with all those scumbags"

[aquaman]

23. Don't know a quote......

But that is one damn funny movie.

[okieinpain]

25. how about "well you know this isn't a half day"

[Mike Niendorff]

26. If I had to choose one ...

"See, it just goes to show : if you work hard and play by the rules, good things can happen!"

[minkyboodle]

27. Mine

Peter.... ahhh yeahh ummmm.... I hear you've been having some problems with your TPS reports..... aahhh yeeeaaah ummm.....

Scott

[minkyboodle]

28. runner up

Peter: What if we're still doing this when we're 50?
Samir: It would be nice to have that kind of job security.

sad but true gotta love the 90s
Scott

[johnnyInc]

29. I don't know if this is the best line...

But I like it when the annoying guy comes up and says,

"I'm gonna show her my 'Oh' face... OOOH! OOOH!"

another funny line:

"You know who else had flair? The Nazis."

[imax2268]

30. This one's classic also...

Bob Slydell: We find it's always better to fire people on a Friday. Studies have statistically shown that there's less chance of an incident if you do it at the end of the week.

[kayleybeth]

31. Okay, I'm a straight female but I still find this funny:

Peter Gibbons: What would you do if you had a million dollars?

Lawrence: I'll tell you what I'd do, man, two chicks at the same time, man.

Peter Gibbons: That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?

Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had a million dollars I could hook that up, cause chicks dig a dude with money.

Peter Gibbons: Well, not all chicks.

Lawrence: Well the kind of chicks that'd double up on me do.

[codebled]

32. heheh

Hi, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to crack but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions.

[ronzo]

34. What am I gonna do with forty subscriptions to Vibe?

:shrug:

[Blade]

33. lmmfao

I forgot about those quotes!

[kayleybeth]

36. More...

Lawrence: What about you, what would you do?

Peter Gibbons: Besides two chicks at the same time?

Lawrence: Well yeah.

Peter Gibbons: Nothing.

Lawrence: Nothing, huh?

Peter Gibbons: I'd relax, sit on my ass all day, I would do nothing.

Lawrence: Well you don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Just take a look at my cousin, he's broke, don't do shit.

[Lindsey]

38. I own this movie and

watch it at least once per month! It's probably my favorite of all time. So many of the lines make me chuckle but here are some of my favorites:

Michael - (to the printer): "that thing's lucky I'm not armed" also when they beat the crap out of it in a field. I sooo relate.

Peter: - "Hey Lawrence, you wanna come over?" Lawrence: "no man, I don't want you fuckin' up my life too!"

Lumbergh: (to Milton): "We're gonna go ahead and move you to the basement, we have a cockroach problem down there and..."

Amire: "I don't want to go to any prison...."


Joanna: "now how is that not stealing?"

The Bobs: (to Peter after their first meeting): "believe me, the pleasures all on this side of the table."
Peter to the bobs: "good luck with your firings."
