Flight of the Conchords
I say "Band meeting." all th time, but you really have to do an approximation of Murray's voice to get the effect.
I think the Python quote they were trying to think of was "None shall pass!".
Yes, and Emmett was in a frenzy of excitement about it. He high-five and knucklebumped me until my fingers were sore.
Right there with you.
I've often quoted "Fuck me gently with a chainsaw." and "What's your damage?" from Heathers.
There's so much stuff from Repo Man and Buckaroo Banzai I've quoted I can't begin to list them off. Oh, and The Big Lebowski joined that list as well.

"Let's get sushi and not pay!"
Kate! No right-minded people could hate you, silly.
My quotes generally come from either Caddyshack
"I don't think the heavy stuff's going to come down for a while yet."
"Well, I'm not saying I'd like to build a summer home here, but the trees are actually quite lovely."
FYI, apparently Sunday is Draw a Dinosaur Day: [link]

"I love my dead, gay son."
and
"Did you eat a brain tumor for breakfast?"
So our plans for the weekend might involve buying a new-to-us car. I'm excited, and also a little nervous because we want to try to bargain a bit on the price (right now it's a little over $10K, we'd like to get it at $10K or a bit less) but neither of us has ever done that when buying a car. What if we suck at it? What if the seller hates us or ends up selling it to us for $20K instead???
It can be nerve-wracking, but remember all those classified listings with OBO in 'em. They aren't going to bite you, the worst they will say is, "Sorry we do really have to be firm about the price." At that point, they will proceed to enumerate why the car is actually worth far more than they are asking. So you can decide if paying the asking price is worth it to you, and decline or accept. The best thing that can happen is that they will jump at your offer. In between, is "Well, we can't go that low, can you manage ____" some in-between number.
The first time I bargained a car price, I was buying from a guy's backyard, a car he had fixed up, and his wife wanted it gone. He said he had put $2700 worth of parts in it, but was only asking $2300. I countered with, "I have $2000 in my pocket. Wanna trade?" and it was done. Since then, I figure it can't hurt to ask.
We didn't low-ball the guy with the $100 minivan. He just lowered his asking price of his own accord, the longer Daniel and his cousin stood there trying to get the engine started so we could take it for a test drive. That again was a case of "get this thing out of my yard".
Which is probably not on the same order of magnitude as your car budget, but the principle remains - it can't hurt to ask. And if you are at a dealership, don't be afraid to low-ball 'em. Especially if you have researched enough to know how much they were likely to have paid for the vehicle, and what a reasonable mark-up is. So you start lower, then settle on the reasonable mark-up.
"I love my dead, gay son."
Often with some other word in place of "son".
"Did you eat a brain tumor for breakfast?"
Also good. It just reminded me of a Governator quote I use even though I've never seen the movie (must be said in Ah-nuld!voice): "It's not a too-mah!!!!"
Which joins "I'll be bahk", "You're a funny guy Sully; that's why I'll kill you last" (and it's companion "Remember when I said I'd kill you last? I lied.") on that particular list.
Princess Bride and The Simpsons get a lot of play at our house. Also Buffy & Angel, but that's more cadence/syntax than actual quotes most of the time. I also have a tendency to quote Animaniacs without realizing it until the words are out of my mouth.
