Kalshane, that's what I thought, too, but I couldn't recall exactly where I read it.
Bester: Mal. Whaddya need two mechanics for? Mal: I really don't.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Of course, so were the Spartans and they turned out okay.
If by okay, you mean "all completely dead - but heroically."

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Which, if you were a Spartan, yeah -- they would have said that was okay. Like, second place to winning. ("Mostly dead" for a Spartan was definitely a loss. So, if you gotta be a dead Spartan, go for the completely dead option.)

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...
Phew. I thought I was going to expose my youth by saying that I didn't know there was a real Sta-Puft man.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
With your shield, or on it...
(The Spartans, not Mr. Sta-Puft)

If I only had a brain...
My youth has been invalidated. I believed in Mr. Sta-Puft.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Kalshane, that's what I thought, too, but I couldn't recall exactly where I read it.
It was from one of their summer 2004 issues (I had a backlog at home I finally read through and tossed in the last couple weeks) they had a 20th anniversary article with comments from the cast and crew. Akroyd also said his father hated the idea of Mr. Stay Puft, thinking it would pull the audience out of the movie. He said something like it was the only instance he was glad he didn't follow his father's advice.

[insert something funny here]
Mr. Sta-Puft was a bit scary.
He'd be no match for the Cavemen though. They'd be eating him.
Shortly before being killed by Ninjas.

I'd vote for a shaved weasel to beat out any and all of the above.

Or perhaps a crazed marmot. It's a woodchuck thing.
