YOU WON’T BELIEVE THIS, BUT I HAVE EVEN MORE ELO INCORRECT QUOTES!!!
Richard: You have Crayons?
Melvyn: Yes, I have—
Richard: You're— how old are you?
Melvyn: YES I AM AN ADULT AND I HAVE CRAYONS, I HAVE A BOX OF EMERGENCY CRAYONS IN THE CABINET UNDER THE TV BECAUSE EVERYBODY NEEDS CRAYONS SOMETIMES, OKAY? EVERYBODY NEEDS CRAYONS.
Jeff: How long do you think it'll take?
Richard: I don’t know, three or four.
Jeff: Three or four what? Days? Weeks? Months?
Richard: Yeah, maybe five.
Jeff: Five what?!
Bev: When will Ted himself...finally show up to the talk?
Jeff: The final boss.
Richard: You guys know TEDtalks stands for technology, entertainment, and design talks, right?
Bev: I will not let Ted hide behind these lies any longer!
Bev: Jeff, what do you value about Richard?
Jeff: He’s thoughtful. He picks flowers and brings them to me. Often they’re ones I’ve just planted, but...
Richard: That’s how I know they’re fresh!
Melvyn: Hey, wanna hear a funny joke?
Hugh: I only like dark humor.
Melvyn, turning the lights off: What do you call a fake noodle?
Hugh:
Melvyn: An IMPASTA!
Hugh: Is there something you would like to say, Melvyn?
Melvyn: Oh, there are SEVERAL things I would like to say.
Richard: What do you call quantums of electromagnetic radiation that don’t get along?
Bev: What did you just say-
Richard: Foetons! *Laughs*
Bev: Wh-what?
Kelly: If I run and leap at Bev, he will most certainly catch me in his arms.
Kelly, running towards Bev: Coming in!
Bev: No! I’m holding coffee!
Bev: *Drops coffee and catches Kelly*
Melvyn: Hugh just said "I have an appetite for destruction" and then he reached down and untied my shoe.
Bev: I know what you're up to.
Melvyn: Really? Because I barely know.
Hugh: You are, of course, wondering why it is I have brought you here tonight.
Jeff: Actually, Hugh, after all these years, I just sort of go with it.
Melvyn: When life gives you lemonades, make lemons! Life will be all like "whaAttT?"
Mik: Life lessons that schools can't teach you.
Richard: Oh, they left the bowl out?
Richard: It says, “Take two pieces of candy.”
Hugh: Nobody around though…
*Hugh grabs the entire bowl and runs off with it*
Richard: NO—
Hugh: So the other day I sent Melvyn out to get us some gas.
Hugh: And instead of getting gas, he got us novelty cookie cutters.
Hugh: Now everything we eat is shaped like a dinosaur.
Hugh: …
Hugh: I love him so much.
Melvyn: *venting endlessly to Richard about his week*
Richard, every once in a while: *in a monotone* Wow, that is so wild.
Bev: Do we have any orange juice left?
Hugh: *pours the remaining juice into his cup*
Hugh: Sorry, we’re all out.
Jeff: Are you listening to me?
Hugh: *nods*
Jeff: What did I just say?
Hugh: *nods*
Jeff: …
Jeff: Oooh, a train!
Richard: We’re in a train station, Jeff.
Melvyn: Time freezes for everyone but you one day. What do you do?
Hugh: Oh… I’d mildly trouble everyone.
Melvyn: Alright, so what would you do?
Hugh: I’d shave a one-inch thick line in every thick beard I saw.
Hugh: I’d twist all the lightbulbs just a little bit so no one would know when they aren’t working.
Hugh: I’d make every wing on girls eyeliner just a little bit higher than the other one.
Hugh: And I’d tie everyone’s shoelaces together.
Hugh: And then lastly, I’d snip a little hole in every tea bag.
Melvyn:
Melvyn: Remind me to never allow you to have power.
Bev: You know, it’s fine to admit you were wrong.
Hugh: *Sipping his drink after accidentally adding salt* I just like the way it tastes.
Mik: The first time Melvyn opened a box of Cheerios and looked inside he yelled, "OH WOW! DONUT SEEDS!"
Bev: I am 39 cheetos tall.
Richard: Why... are you measuring your height in cheetos?
Bev: Because we're out of doritos.
Bev: Yeah, I find it quite emotional. In like a cool way.
Hugh: Did you just say it makes you cry in a cool way?
Melvyn: Jeff.. I'm gonna cry!
Jeff: Please don't.
Melvyn, crying: Request denied.
Richard: Tomorrow’s the Cooking Contest. Bev always tells me one thing every year. They say, “You might win if you’d stop eating your entry!” But how would I know whether it’s an award-winning dish without tasting it first? This may be a problem humanity will have to grapple with for eternity…
Jeff: Hugh is restricted to decaf for the rest of this adventure.
Jeff: I'm never having a debate with Hugh again, he literally started his argument with "Riddle me this."
Hugh: Remember that time you dared me to lick a swingset?
Melvyn: No, I said "Hugh, don't lick that swingset" and you said "Don't tell me what to do" and licked the swingset.
Jeff: I suppose you’re right. We really would be better off working together.
Hugh: So, then… détente?
Jeff: Agreed.
Hugh: Understanding?
Jeff: Possibly.
Hugh: Cooperation?
Jeff: Maybe.
Hugh: Trust?
Jeff: Out of the question.
Hugh: Ew. What kind of tea is this?
Melvyn: I boiled gatorade.
Jeff: Melvyn is forbidden from monologuing.
Hugh: Now it's time for some witty back and forth banter. You go first.
Melvyn: *sobbing*
Hugh: Look, I'm not sure where to go with that.
Jeff: Melvyn, you look deep in thought. What’s wrong?
Melvyn: Did you know you can look at any object and know what it’s like to lick it? Even if you’ve never touched it before?
Jeff: I’m never asking you anything ever again.
Bev: So, what's for dinner?
Richard, staring at the food he burnt: Regret.
Kelly: Which is correct, seven and five IS thirteen, or seven and five ARE thirteen?
Richard: Neither.
Richard: Because it's twelve.
Kelly: I'm very scary.
Richard: You're about as scary as a wet kitten.
Kelly: Wet kittens are cute, at least I've got that going for me.
Richard: And small.
Kelly:
Kelly: ...Yeah, yeah. I guess.
Melvyn: Can you recommend a book that'll make me cry?
Richard: General Mathematics 8th Grade Edition.
Melvyn: Richard, can I ask you a question?
Richard: You just did.
Melvyn: Okay, can I ask you two questions?
Richard: You just did.
Melvyn, frustrated: OKAY, CAN I ASK YOU FOUR QUESTIONS?!
Richard: You just did.
Melvyn: When?!
Richard: Just now.
Richard, handing out popsicles: Which flavor do you want?
Jeff: Blue flavor!
Richard: Uh, you mean Blue Raspberry?
Jeff: Blue flavor! Blue flavor!
Richard: Blue is not a flavor!
Jeff: BLUE FLAVOR!
Bev: I can't take you seriously wearing that.
Hugh: Aw, you take me seriously at all?
Bev: Fair point.
*Jeff and Hugh are texting*
Jeff: Please bring home PURIFIED water with NO minerals added for taste. NONE.
Hugh: I got spring water.
Jeff: NO!
Hugh: With EXTRA minerals!
Hugh: It’s like licking a stalagmite!
Jeff: DON’T COME HOME!
Hugh: Mmmmmm, cave water.
Bev: Kelly, can you help me? All of my clothes keep disappearing for some reason.
Kelly, wearing a hoodie that's 5 times bigger than his size: Spooky.
Mik: Richard, you need to calm down.
Richard, slamming his fists on the table: BUT HOW CAN IT BE "BIRTHDAY CAKE" FLAVOR IF A BIRTHDAY CAKE CAN BE ANY FLAVOR?!
Hugh: *plays shreksophone*
Hugh: Woo.
Hugh: Time to listen to this on loop for all eternity.
Richard: ...Genius coping mechanism my friend
Hugh, holding a scooter: Bev! Can I go outside and play with this?
Bev: Sure, whatever. I'm not your parent, okay?
Hugh, running outside: Thanks Bev!
Bev, running out after them and screaming: NOT ON THE STREET! STAY AWAY!
Hugh: Slash gamemode creative.
Mik: Dude, this isn't Min-
Hugh: *starts levitating*
Melvyn: I desire moisture.
Bev: Please just say “I want water” like a normal person.
Hugh: You remind me of the ocean.
Richard: Because I’m deep and mysterious?
Hugh: No, because you’re full of salt and you scare people.
Jeff: N… No!
Hugh: A fair rebuttal. However, consider this counterpoint: Y… Yes???
Melvyn: The joy of hanging out with Hugh. You look away for 5 seconds to make sure something is set up correctly, and he bites the tip of a marker off.
