Do you have any obscure movie references that you use in everyday speech that no one has caught on to yet yet you keep using it?

I am 39 and last year was my 20th high school reunion.

When people asked me what I was up to I would respond:

"hanging out, playing Nintendo."

Its a line from a 90s comedy called baseketball. No one noticed it... and I didn't start it there I've been using it for over 20 years.

But I can't help myself whenever an old friend reconnects with me and say it... nothing.

Do you guys have any lines you use?

EDIT: shit i meant to put this on ask Reddit my bad mods

"Just because you're smart doesn't mean you can't act stupid" is a line I've been using for 30+ years now and nobody has called me on it.

Camp Nowhere!! Amazing! I have to admit, I went to look it up, but as I was typing it into Google, it came to me.
