"I mean, I didn't invent the turtleneck, Lana, but I was the first to recognize its potential as a tactical garment. The tactical turtleneck, Lana. The tactleneck!" ~ H. Jon Benjamin as Archer
Archer: "Guys, this is, this is the-- the car from--"
Lana: "Bullitt, we know, and if you'd go already, maybe later I'll dress up like Steve McQueen for you!"
Archer: "Ew, that's not even what it's about. Plus your hands are too big."
Lana: "Go!"
Archer: "But speaking of McQueen, if there was ever a time to wear the tactleneck--"
Lana: "Go!"
Archer: "Okay! Hang on!"

"Right. So these European settlers, who were total ding-dongs, came in the dead of winter, with zero snow-how. These underprepared vacationers turned to eating each other to survive. Eventually, though, they realized they were surrounded by scores of edible fish and wildlife." ~ Nick Offerman as Beef Tobin

Honeybee: “Yeah, but it looks like a warm anus that's probably full of artichoke dip, so let's roll.”
