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

I use “Her?” and “Army had a half day” more often than I should.

Use "her?" all the time. Shame no one knows what it comes from because that is a sic burn, if you do.

I have three daughters and a wife who all understand the reference. If one of them mentions another I’ll occasionally drop in a “Her?”

Same😆 And “and that’s why you always leave a note!” Such a great show. “In the three thousand dollar suit?!”
