What's your favorite quote to use out of context?

Mine's in the title. :D

There is speculation that Marie Antoinette may have been so thoroughly isolated from society and so thoroughly ignorant about current affairs that she genuinely had no idea that people in France were starving.

At any rate, welcome back.

Were you just unbanned? I thought that happened a while ago for some reason.

I'm pretty sure he was still banned a couple of weeks ago.

I never realised how much I'd missed that signature. xD

I tend to overuse "o rly", quite a lot in real life. I usually look astonished or disgusted.

I think I say 'good times' rather too often even if not actually referring to any times

He has visitor messages, people; don't spam the thread. And, yes, he was just unbanned. Again.

I, uh... I dunno. I do like "Let them eat cake." I heartell she didn't really say that though. Most of the quoting I do is from TV shows and movies BJ and I like and then he laughs.

"Cake" is a poor translation. What she said basically amounted to "If they don't have enough of this kind of bread, why don't they eat that kind?" which isn't hugely better but is hardly the callous nonsense which the poor woman is credited with saying.

Hi DMKA

"Prepare your anus" except there is never a context where it is not suitable.

"What a deck."
"Total deck."

Usually with my best friend to provide the response :P
