I’m being overrun by madness here, here, here, here, …
Over the years I’ve incorporated an abundance of film dialogue into my day to day lingo. The following is a useful guide parody I’ve put together of situations you may find yourself in and the some (in)appropriate and/or completely silly responses.
You probably shouldn’t ever use most of these.* However, I’ve used many of them and the rest I’m just waiting for the perfect opportunity.
