    Me talking, even if it's in cliches: my cup runneth over. Especially gleeful at:

    How do I know? Well, Sammy, I was that little drummer boy.
    and

    I told you not to tell me that.
    Speaking of parodies, ff, when I was looking at other lists online (all were shorter than ours), someone had quoted this, from Flight of the Conchords, which I'll do extempore:

    A: What if.... nah, it would never work.

    B: No, what?

    A: Well... sometimes when I'm angry at someone I just sort of think bad thoughts about them.

    B: But what good does that do if they don't even know about it?

    A: Yeah, I know. That's why I didn't say it.

    To respond with what may well be another:

    I know, right?

    Seriously, I'm surprised and even, through the laughter, sort of horrified. It's like the increasing proliferation of Aliens in the Alien movies.

    LOL...I have yet to see more than excerpts from this series, but I keep meaning to catch the time and day. The premise is hilarious.

    *I think we could do pages and pages on just alien and monster movies*

    -My god, what is it?
    -All I can tell you is, it's not one of us.

    How did they get here.

    I think it's time for them to breed.

    Well we're not looking for a wild animal anymore.

    This is like the Steve Martin bit, sort of:

    Martin: It mysterious like a thermos.

    B: A thermos! What is myterious about a thermos?

    Martin: It keeps things hot and cold.

    B: What?!

    Martin: How does it know?

    lol IRL.

    This is better than, but very like a bit of my own that's still looking for a home:

    A: This is lukewarm.

    B: Oh fer.... You're impossible! You wouldn't like it if your drink was too hot or too cold, but you don't want it to be lukewarm either.

    I really want to be first with this one and I'm pretty sure I am:

    It's time to take out the trash.

    Somebody should have told him the war was over.

    They're surrounding the building.

    Looks like you're going to get a little more than you bargained for.

    Just don't ever let me hear you say I don't take care of you.

    I suspect there are lots of voiceover ones too.

    [Manitoba / New York / Caracas / Alexandria etc. ] a town / city [on the edge / without pity / to get lost in etc.]

    When I think....

    When I look back....

    But that was before; before [something happened]; before [amplification of what has just been said to have happened].

    [Eddie / Sarah etc.] was different. I'd never met anyone like [him/her] before.

    He / She showed me a new world, one where....

    That was when I realised....

    But still I wasn't satisfied.

    I knew / saw then that [nothing was going to change / I had to go further etc.]

    But why?

    Then something changed.

    Perhaps this was why....

    *Alien movie voice-overs are prime I'll try to go there. In the meantime...*


    This was the last uninfected outpost...

    How do I know you're not one of them?

    *My sister and I called this the LLoyd Bridges VO*:
    Little did I know that______.
