Quotes edit see section history

• “You're so melodramatic. It's like I'm playing golf with Walt freakin' Whitman over here.”

  Dimitri Martell

• “Okay, maybe she's not a space cadet, but she's no high-ranking space official. She's like a space private first class. A space corporal at best.”

  Dimitri Martell

• “Is 'space idiot' a rank? You'd qualify for that--probably get some kind of medal for exemplary service.”

  Seth Baumgartner

• “You don't belong on Oprah. You belong on Jerry freakin' Springer.”

  Dimitri Martell

• “It's like cars. Why keep test-driving them? If you know you like BMWs, then why would you go and try out an Acura Integra?”

  Seth Baumgartner

• “I think sometimes it's easier to see something if you're not the one mired down in it.”

  Seth Baumgartner

• “Okay, dude,you're starting to sound weird. You're like an antilove geek with some dork overtones and a few dashes of nerd for flavor.”

  Dimitri Martell

• “Sometimes you can't see things clearly until you've taken a big bite of the worst chicken salad sandwich in the world.”

  Seth Baumgartner

• “My grandmother tells me that the way to a guy's heart is through his stomach. She feeds my grandfather like there won't be food for sale at the supermarket tomorrow. I think you can tell more about a guy by making him bad food. It might have taken you a while, but you told me the truth, Seth. That's hot.”
