Movie/TV phrases that have entered your life

Have you ever found yourself unknowingly just uttering some phrase or word from a character in a movie or TV show without truely realizing it?

I discovered I tend to say "Crap." quite a bit now when something unexpected and unpleasent comes up, in much the same manner as Officer John Sullivan from Third Watch (in other words, about as close to his tone of voice as I can be). I don't even really think about it, it just comes out. And I didn't even realize it until probably about a half a month of doing it.

So, anything that's entered your everyday life?

Frak.
This has been in my vocabulary since the late 70's.

"I love it when a plan comes together" Yes, I watched A-Team as well.

I may have others that I'm unaware of when I'm saying them.

Frak and felgercarb, from Battlestar Galactica, but hardly everyday.

I'm sure there's a bit more, but for the life of me I can't think of anything whatsoever.

I have a bad feeling about this.
I'm getting to old for this shit.
It's not my fault !!!(in my best Han Solo voice)
When asked 'Are you/you are/your name is (insert name)', I tend to answer 'Most of the time' a lot. But I guess that comes with the territory.

"Yes, but thats not important right now"
That ones used when I'm being offered something simply by the person stating what they're giving me in the form of a question.

Example:

"Cookie?"
"Yes it is, but that's not important right now."

Actually, it's "I'm the BATMAN," as I recall. Depends on which Batman Batman is. Is he Frank Millar? Or is he Kia Asamiya? Or is he someone else?

As to myself:

"Hit the button, Frank." - When playing Myst/Riven with my Dad.
"MEAT!" - occasionally used as swear in presence of children.

Useful in daily office life, and frequently used ....

"Just wait 'til I get going!"

"Dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria!"

"We're on a mission from God."

Some phrases I use:
1. People in glass houses sink ships.
2. A penny saved is worth two in the bush.
3. Don't cross the road if you can't get out of the kitchen.
4. Why don't you make like a tree and get the fuck out of here?
5. Fuck! Ass! (Yes, I use lots of phrases from Boondock Saints)
6. Well, not every single syllable, but yeah, I basically said it.

Though one of my favorite TV scenes to reenact:
Me: I got something for you.
Someone: What is it?
Me: A book.
Someone: What's the book?
Me: A Modest Proposal.
Someone: Who is it by?
Me: Jonathan Swift.
Someone: And what's the book about?
Me: ...Eating babies.

Not only is Batman ambiguous, as it's a job description as well as a name, but I've come to notice over the years that the worst 'Most of the time' garners me is a few raised eyebrows and confused looks, while 'Actually I'm (the) Batman' tends to have people sic psychotherapists at me. Do the math.
NTM that I still haven't found out how to talk in capitals.
@Singular Quartet: Bite me :P
I'm me, of course.

Airplane = wins.

My speech is fucking repleat with obscure TV movie and computer game references, as well as constant irony, sarcasm and "zaniness".

Like, when someone asks me what CPU i've got, they'll get a terminator response "my CPU is a neural net processor, a learning computer," or if someone passes me a pen, "Are you asking me to be a cop again, Walter?" (Die Hard With A Vengeance) "Psychos do not EXPLODE when sunlight hits them!"(From Dusk Till Dawn) " "MAAAAAAAAARDY!" (Back To The Future)

Do I even need to mention the Holy Grail and Life of Brian? No. Thought not. I just wanted to say good luck, we're all counting on you.

My standard way of talking is riddled with references/quotes.

Waaay too many to list. :D
