what's your favorite rolf line, and favorite kevin line?

I mentioned some lines in the past and I guess the favorites always change around, so here's a few favorites I can think of at the moment (it's hard with Rolf especially cause everything he says is gold)

For Kevin one line that sticks out is "this show needs subtitles". I love the idea of Kevin's own brand of fourth-wall break naturally being sarcastic and unfazed (it also makes me wonder which other characters apart from the Eds directly broke the fourth wall, can't remember now. Was there anyone apart from Kevin? Not surprised he's the one to do it tho haha), would have loved to see more Kevin glancing at the "camera" with a puzzled/annoyed look 🤨

Another one (not necessarily the line but the delivery) is when Eddy accidentally swallows him whole and he just says "no really, I'm pouding ya, dork", like he's not even horrified or disgusted, just absolutely done with Eddy's shit 😂 (btw when he drops the piano on Eddy as revenge that's such a Looney Toons rivalry gag between the two of them, Bugs-Daffy coded)

Also with Rolf in Boom Boom Out Goes the Ed, "this pageant thing's got you tied in a knot." Don't know why I like it, the deadpan delivery just rings out so well, it makes me imagine older Kev getting very good at those off-handed remarks, hopefully he loses his more unfunny jokes and develops his dry sense of humor (also that particular exchange makes me imagine KevRolf daily life, like the bit where Edd's in the sewer and you can hear them bickering about the generator, but nevermind this is another topic)

A Rolf favorite lately is when he's sharpening Victor's horns and he's all joyful and gleaming, "Rolf's eyes sting with your beauty!" lmao calm down Rolf it's just a goat's horns. Or the scene in Wish You Were Ed where he speaks in his language, I love how it sounds even if it's silly gibberish. Not to mention all of the silly noises he makes, especially the one where he's just humming/mumbling to himself, he really sounds like a furby 🤣

Then there's the bit from Dueling Eds when he's donning his sea-cucumber suit. "The fittings were excruciating... but that's another story." Also from Truth or Ed, talking of Eddy's shouting, "His shrieks rip through Rolf like Nana's cabbage stew!" How does a cabbage stew rip through you? What does it mean? Sounds uncomfortable. I assume he's talking about a terrible gas attack lol.

Finally I always love the gem, "Shall Rolf rub Kevin's belly with the oil of fermented figs?" I love that he just takes Kevin's words literally and thinks he's got a belly ache or something so he offers some... help lol. It's kinda cute apart from being funny (recently I thought about how the storyboards were run through scene-by-scene in front of the whole studio crew when they were working on an episode, commentary and criticism encouraged... I can only imagine the reaction to that joke haha).
