Redditor: A girl asked me to tell her about myself. I started with "well, I was born a poor black child (I'm white, the quote is from, The Jerk)." She gave me a blank stare. What movie quotes do you frequently use that far too few people understand?

There are two movie quotes I frequently use that are almost never never understood.

The first is from Singin’ in the Rain. Right after insulting Don Lockwood during a car ride, Kathy Selden drives up to his intersection and happily sings out “Here we are, Sunset and Camden!” Hence, I will often mimic that singsong quote when pulling over to drop somebody off, although nobody ever seems to understand why.

The second is from the 2001 version of Ocean’s 11. Livingston Dell, overseeing logistics for the heist, checks to see if Basher Tarr is in position by saying “Bash, what’s your status?” I repeat this a lot instead of saying things like “Where are you?” or “What are your plans?”, but nobody ever gets it. They always say “Huh? Bash?” So sad.

I like to say “Go for it, Stephanie!” from “The Naked Gun” whenever I want to encourage someone.

I sometimes say “Negative, Ghost Rider, pattern is full” rather than “No”.

“I don’t feel the need to explain my art to you, Warren.”

I often whistle when walking down the hallway the song daryl Hannah(California mountain snake) did as a nurse to go kill uma thurman in the hospital in kill bill.
