I actually think it was someone on this website who said Weird Al was the most underrated musician of the last 30 years, and I agree. It's a cliche, but it's like how the jester is always the smartest guy in the royal court but no one admits it.

"They call me the king of the spreadsheets.
Got 'em all printed out on my bedsheets."
"Now you may find it inconceivable, or at the very least a bit unlikely, that the relative positions of the planets and the stars could have a special deep significance or meaning that exclusively applies to only you…"
(Whispered confession): I actually kind of stopped paying attention after Gen 3. My impression was that 4 and 5 took it too far towards the gimmicky end, and 6 got back to the roots. Is that about right?
"What sound does an arctic tern make, Col?"
I've always liked how Phillippe is blissfully unaware of all the depravity going on around him: "Instead of the whole cop uniform, they were just wearing socks and hats! What the heck?"

"I will give you a sign. The sign will be that life is awesome."
What about Tom Waits as Voldemort?
"Disneyland was wall-to-wall 500-pound mongoloids with leg tattoos and kids named Destiny."
I have heard rumors that, in fact, there are grown adults who are rather fond of the show. I mean, I wouldn't know, I've never met one.
well just how rude we talkin about here ray
Now I'm all sad.
We all win.
"I still jerk off manually."
"Oh look, a gold-throated warbler! Just one more for Exotic Bird Bingo! I am lovin' this!"
I know I sound like a defensive fanboy here (The AV Club etc etc) but Rush, compared to other prog bands, is practically pop. And I'm not saying that's an insult. Since the 80's they've had very few songs longer than 6 minutes or so (and Caress of Steel/2112/etc is actually the stuff I like the least.) Compare, say,…
"Smokey, this is not 'Nam, this is bowling. There are rules."
Also, I may have missed it, but I can't believe Whose Line Is It Anyway hasn't come up. I'm only familiar with the American version, and would assume sight unseen that the tradition of Brits being funnier than Americans holds true, but still…
"Hot'n'crispy pillbug for the happy couple. Mazel Tov."
