Quotes

  • Dale: My Joseph better not be sterile. I need my seed to live on. Certain plans of mine require additional Gribbles.
  • Hank: It's okay if you only know three chords, but God, put 'em in the right order.
  • Dale: That noise has been giving Nancy headaches all week. Then yesterday, her back broke out in scratch marks.
  • Bobby: Can we please play paintball?
Hank: Now hold on a minute. Let's see. They give you kids guns and let you shoot at each other? Yeah, okay.
  • Hank: This is no time to go easy on these punks. That's the mistake their parents made.
  • Hank: Afternoon, everybody.
Bill: Who wants a cold one? You want a cold one? Got some cold ones here. They're cold.
Hank: That sure is cold, all right. Maybe I should've brought mittens.
(Hank forces a laugh, which the others follow)
Dale: Oh.
Bill: Yeah.
Boomhauer: Dang ol' mittens, man.
Dale: (laughter turning into a crying) How long are we going to keep up this false charade?!
Boomhauer: "Cha-rahd"? Man, I tell you what. That word's pronounced "charade."
Bill: I need a cold one.
Hank: You want a cold one? (handing beer to Bill) Here's a cold one for ya. (handing beer to Dale) Here's a cold one for ya. (handing beer to Boomhauer) Here's a cold one for ya. I hope you're all happy. There's no cold ones left for me.
Dale: Open up your eyes, man. You're holdin' a beer.
Hank: Oh, you call this beer? "Guatemalica"? Who bought this stuff?
Bill: Not me.
Hank: 'Course not. Bill, buy beer? No need to do that when you got friends to mooch off of.
Bill: Hey, hey, hey, some friends you are! When my wife left me 'cause I was lazy and dependent did even one of you find me a new one? No!
Dale: Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! I can't stand fighting!
Hank: Yeah, we know that. You showed that on the paintball field.
Dale: I am not a coward!
(Dale cries as he runs off)
Bill: Lenore!
(Bill sobs and leaves)
Boomhauer: (to Hank) Dang old bully, man, yo.
  • Peggy: Oh, Hank, for goodness sake, just put on your glasses.

  • Hank: Well, at least this time one of us got a shot off.
Dale: Sorry, Bill.
  • Pops: Now what's happenin'?
Hank: He's stompin' it good.
Pops: And there's doodies in there, right?
Hank: There sure is, Pops. There sure is.
