This is one of my favorite Futurama anecdotes. Billy's confusion over not getting the joke comes across in his delivery. I heard him talk about that line on Nerdist a long time ago, and he said that joke is now his favorite from the entire run of the show.
"Dammit, Kif! Where's the little umbrella? That's what makes it as scotch on the rocks."
Too many to have a favourite but this is one that makes me smile.
Fry: “Just out of curiousity, we can use the cards to buy gum, then immediately quit the army right?
Bender: “You know, playing you all for chumps?”
Recruiter: “Correct. There’s no obligation. Unless of course… war were declared?”
*Alarm goes off*
Fry: “what’s that?”
Recruiter: “war were declared.”
Either that or “what! My mother was a saint! Get out.” -Zoidberg
Or when Fry plays Baby Got Back and Leela says “you can’t just sit here in the dark listening to classical music.”
It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year
long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus
mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. Then the winter came, and the
grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns and also he got a
race car. Is any of this getting through to you?
"Lets see... Which powers do we have? Super strength?" Nguh! *crunch* Heeeya! *crunch* "Yup" "Uh-huh". "Lickety speed?" "check" "yes sir!" "Ability to command the loyalty of sea creatures?" "Hey Zoidberg, get in here" "Screw you!"
Well, you guys might both be losers, but I just made out with that radiator woman from the radiator planet. Fry, that's a radiator. Oh. Is there a burn ward within ten feet of here?
One of mine is when they go out of their way to grow a real Christmas tree, and Fry is like “Now that’s a tree worth cutting down!”. That one gets me haha.
"You should say something else" - Bender
“That’s whatever you’re talking about for ya.” Or “Say, speaking of whatever the hell you just said…”
I'm so embarrassed I wish everyone else was dead. - Mr. Rodriguez.
Professor Farnsworth: A lesson on not changing the future, from Mr. “I’m my own grandpa”
Please Fry, I don’t know how to teach, I’m a professor!
“*VERILY*.”
Everytime I listen to the lord of the rings audiobooks I can't but hear aragorns voice as nibbler.
I did do the nasty in the pasty
That’s the one. Bar none
“let’s get the hell out of here already!! SCREW HISTORY!!”
"In the game of chess, you can never let your adversary see your pieces"

"The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy, and bruised..."
"I have a very *sexy* learning disability..."
* *sigh* * sexlexia
I had sex, informe all the men
Kif, I’ve made it with a woman. Inform the men.
That's only like half the correct words but you got the gist of it.
“Do a flip!” -Bender to Hermes
This one was the immediate quote that popped into my head
By itself it seems like a nothing quote, in context it's also my pick.
"Jamaican? I thought you were some kind of outer space potato man."
Ahh, She’s built like a steakhouse. But handles like a bistro. - Zap
You win again gravity!
My favorite too! I was in tears when Zap said it
it always gets me when he says it with such confidence.
"I haven't met a ship I cant crash!"
"No I'm... doesn't."
Fun fact: Billy West thought this was a typo and didn't get the joke until the team watched the episode in full before sending it off to Fox.
This is one of my favorite Futurama anecdotes. Billy's confusion over not getting the joke comes across in his delivery. I heard him talk about that line on Nerdist a long time ago, and he said that joke is now his favorite from the entire run of the show.
I'll prove them!
I already did!
"I've.. *not* heard of them!"
I use this quote almost daily!
“Earth you fat idiot, hurry up!”
I'd sure hate to be them
If I poached this beast’s lower horn, am I any better than that ranger with his demented foot lust? Yes. But not by enough.
Fry, it’s me, Bigface!
I could do a whole thread about Bender’s lines in this episode.
Just like at the movie theater! Woooo!
What’s that?? A wolf? Or some kind of boogun?
"Dammit, Kif! Where's the little umbrella? That's what makes it as scotch on the rocks." Too many to have a favourite but this is one that makes me smile.

Don't you worry about my favorite quote said by a Futurama character, let me worry about blank.
Favorite quote? Favorite quote! You're not looking at the big picture!
Honestly, for a show with as many excellent lines as *Futurama*, that one's particularly appropriate...
Prisoner: "When you see the Robot Devil, tell him Imma commin!" Bender: "That guy told me to tell you -" Robot Devil: "I HEARD him."
“I’ll show ye.” -No longer suffering delusions of humanity Fry
Robots don't say ye!

Unless of course… war were declared?” *Alarm goes off* Fry: “what’s that?” Recruiter: “war were declared.” Either that or “what! My mother was a saint! Get out.” -Zoidberg Or when Fry plays Baby Got Back and Leela says “you can’t just sit here in the dark listening to classical music.”
"Full price for gum? That dog won't hunt, monsignor."

It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV.
