  • Dave Buznik: [recording his voice with the tape recorder] I'm feeling very angry right now, because I have only one bed and no couch.

  • Dave Buznik: Flirting is cheating's ugly cousin Buddy, I am not a cheater.

    Dr. Buddy Rydell: Dave said, "How does a guy who weighs over six hundred pounds have the balls to teach people about self-discipline?"

  • Chuck: I'm in a mood, Dave. A bad mood, a very bad mood! I was fired from my ice cream truck job today! No more Fudgicles!

    Dr. Buddy Rydell: Wildebeast!

    Dave Buznik: Well, I'm an executive assistant for a major pet products company.

    Dr. Buddy Rydell: [interupts him] Dave, I don't want you to tell us what you do. I want you to tell us who you are.

    Dave Buznik: Oh, alright, um... I'm a pretty good guy. I like playing tennis on occasion.

    Dr. Buddy Rydell: Also, not your hobbies Dave. Just tell us who you are.

    Dave Buznik: [stumped] Maybe you could give me an example of what a good answer would be? Um...

    [to Lou]

    Dave Buznik: What did you say?

    [the group laughs]

    Dr. Buddy Rydell: You want Lou to tell you who you are?

    Dave Buznik: No, I just, uh... I'm a nice, easy going man, I might be a little indecisive at times...

    Dr. Buddy Rydell: Dave, you're describing your personality. I just want to know... who you are.

    Dave Buznik: [snaps] I don't know what the hell you want me to say!

    [the room falls silent]

  • Dave Buznik: Kendra, even though I'd love to see you take that bra off because it represents a team I've hated my entire life, you gotta keep it on.

    Kendra: Why?

    Dave Buznik: Because I've got a girlfriend.

    Kendra: [she becomes angry] I'm not a child Dave. If you think I'm a porker, then just come right out and say it.

    Dave Buznik: No no no, I don't think you're a porker.

    Kendra: Well then why when the idea of sleeping with me comes up, you all of a sudden have "a girlfriend."

    Dave Buznik: Because I do, I do. I do have a girlfriend.

    Kendra: Said the liar to the beached whale!

    Dave Buznik: You're not a beached whale! If anything, you could even afford to gain a few pounds.

    Kendra: Oh, so now I'm too skinny for you?

    Dave Buznik: No, no, no, no I didn't mean that.

    Kendra: Is this what you want, Dave?

    [stuffs her face with brownies]

    Kendra: If I put on a few pounds, would you be able to stifle your vomit long enough to have sex with me?

    Dave Buznik: Holy shit.

  • [Dave is on the phone with his lawyer when a female co-worker walks into the stall Dave is sitting in]

    Dave Buznik: Hi Nancy.

    Nancy: What are you doing in the ladies room Dave?

    Dave Buznik: I heard you have cleaner seats than we do, so I wanted to see for myself.

    Nancy: Not after I'm through with them.

  • Dr. Buddy Rydell: First it was a 5-second kiss, and then a little break because my beard gave her a tickle. She's cute, and then a 10-second frenchie.

    Dave Buznik: You had your crazy, corroded tongue in my girlfriend's mouth?

  • Mayor Rudy Giuliani: [In Yankees stadium] You can do it, David! Give her a five-second frencher!

  • Air Marshall: This is a difficult time for our Country.

  • Dr. Buddy Rydell: For crying out loud, you are missing important plot points.

    [cut to the TV showing three topless men in a sauna]

  • Dave Buznik: Let me ask you guys something. Because of your profession, you probably have seen a lot of them. Does size count at all, or is that just some weird thing guys think about?

    Gina: And I think it's better when they're enormous.

    Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson are crazy bad guys, it's so funny that they twist their necks and brace themselves in a movie. Many big names, including Woody Harrelson, played guest roles.

    Sandler's funeral was well done. But the meaning of the film is unclear, and the super-long confession at the end is simply standard for a bad film...
