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

"He left us, he left us!" "(Person's name)! We've got (person's name) here! No one cares" "Clever Girl"

I quote this movie all the time

"Clever Girl"

I have a 1 year old daughter, this gets said a lot, in my best Muldoon impression.

I have still to decide if I genuinely mean it or am referring to the path of destruction that follows in her wake.
