I've seen things you wouldn't believe.

Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Time to die.

I've had people walk out on me before, but not when I was being so charming.

Wait, do these lines have to be gratuitous insults or is just a favorite movie line OK?

Based on the phrasing in the thread title, I would think that it is totally obvious to all but the basest moron that the gratuitous insults are separate from the movie quotes.

Gratuitous insults are fun, but favorite lines are good, too. My teens seem to have entire scenes memorized - they can beat me hands down when it comes to trotting out great or funny (or both) dialogue.

of course! From 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep'.

One of my favourite quotes has always been 'oh, no, not again.....'

as for gratuitous insults, the fave at my school ( many years back) was 'you're the bastard son of a black-enamelled camel'

Tommy: Doesn't it make you proud to be Scottish?
Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: It's SHITE being Scottish! We're the lowest of the low. The scum of the fucking Earth! The most wretched miserable servile pathetic trash that was ever shat on civilization. Some people hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are colonized by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to get colonized by. We're ruled by effete assholes. It's a shite state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and all the fresh air in the world won't make any fucking difference!
