Tell me your favorite line from Futurama?
The big brain am winning again! I am the greetest! Now, I am leaving Earth for no raisin.
EDIT: After reading your replies, it occurred to me that too much of my everyday speech is made up of lines from the show. Maybe that’s why everyone thinks I’m weird.
The rest of aren’t normal, and that’s what makes us great! … So, Leela, don’t want to be like us? Or do you want to be like Adlai, with no severe mental or social problems whatsoever?
Second EDIT: I didn’t expect so many responses, but I’ve just been reading them all and giggling to myself. Thank you everyone I really needed this. Keep em coming!

You cant just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me feel angry!
She’s built like a steakhouse, but she handles like a bistro!
You win again gravity!
Professor: Your tux doesn't fit because you stole it from a boy.
Bender: You mean a man. It was his Bar Mitzvah.
Lol I missed that one, good line. Was it with the penguins?
Nope it was the one where the Professor doesn't want to live on this planet anymore. (The evolution episode.)
Another of the best lines
You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.

That book changed my life.
My mantra for life.
When they're getting pulled down toward Atlanta:
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised.
This one regularly works its wait into my daily speech
"You can't just sit here in the dark listening to classical music'
"I could if you hadn't turned on the lights and shut off the stereo."
🎵We're whalers on the moon,
We carry a harpoon,
But there ain't no whales,
So we tell tall tales,
And sing this whalin' tune! 🎵
That's not an astronaut, that's a TV comedian! And he was just using space travel as a metaphor for beating his wife.
I died doing what I loved!
Wait, I'm having one of those things, you know, a headache with pictures.
Farnsworth: Dear Lord! That's over 150 atmospheres of pressure!
Fry: How many atmospheres can the ship withstand?
Farnsworth: Well, it's a space ship, so I'd say anywhere between zero and one.
Don't you worry about Planet Express
Let me worry about blank.
Thus global warming was solved, once and for all.
But....
Once And For All.
Bender: "So people will actually pay money to find love...? I have an idea, an idea so genius...." gavel sounds "Stupid anti-pimping laws!"
"Bender we love you!"
Shut up baby. I know it
If I don't survive, tell my wife, "Hello".
You just made me realize I say “I have no strong feelings one way or the other” a lot and I think usually people don’t know I’m quoting anything.
So close to my other favorite, from the same character and episode:
I also say it all the time, lol.
"If we hit that bullseye the rest of the dominos will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate!"
Tie between:
and
The chamber of understanding is also pretty good.
So, there's an infinite number of parallel universes?
No... just the two...
You live in the universe, but you never do these things until someone comes to visit.
"What are those disgusting creatures?"

“We know nothing about their history, their language, or what they look like, but we can assume this: they stand for everything that we don’t stand for. And also, they told me you guys look like dorks.”
THEY LOOK LIKE DORKS!
No I'm... doesn't!
Not exactly an iconic line, but I love the delivery:
"Have you heard of the Monks of Deshuba?"
Fry: "I've... not heard of them."
Futurama's great for nerdy science gags, social satire, and pop culture spoofs, but its best jokes are always uniquely stupid twists of language like this.
My lead pipe hurts.
That's normal.
Next patient!
Also, "We need to look inside you with this camera." opens mouth "...Guess again."
Did everyone take their suppositories?
Yes, stop asking!
I'll start my own amusement park with blackjack and hookers. In fact, forget the blackjack.
Eh, screw the whole thing.
There's not a restaurant built that I can't fly - Zap Brannigan
She's built like a steakhouse, but handles like a bistro!
And Fry, you've got that brain thing!
To shreds, you say..
Well, how's his wife holding up? To shreds, you say...
Its actually from that same scene; "NOW I AM LEAVING EARTH FOR NO RAISIN!!!" I often say "for no raisin!!!" in my daily life. :)
The one I use most often: "I've heard worse excuses to drink".
“They’re like sex except I’m having them”.
My only regret is that I have boneitis
What makes a man turn neutral?
When you do things right people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
I have it framed on my wall at work.
I can wire anything directly into anything! I'M THE PROFESSOR!
"Thanks to denial, I'm immortal!"
"What really killed the dinosaurs?" " ME!!! "
"But you're better than normal! You're abnormal!"
I sublibed with obly tribial blain dabblage.
Also:
"I'm having one of those things! You know? A headache with pictures"
"... An idea?"
"I'm going to remind Fry of his humanity, the way only a woman can."
"You're going to do his laundry?"
Edit - the one that had me literally rolling off the couch because I was laughing so hard was, "That just raises further questions!"
This reminds me of another great Professor quote.
Prof: I’ve just finished recharging the matter compressor.
Fry: What’s the matter compressor?
Prof: Nothing’s the matter now that I’ve charged the matter compressor.
MY LEG FEELS FUNNY
...
MY LEG FEELS BETTER
"Did you know their hair just keeps growing and growing?"
Such a legit thing to be grossed out about.
“Take the deal, Fry! If there's a delicious cake, isn't it better to have one slice than none at all? Even if four other guys eat the other four slices, and they're all thrusting their sweaty naked bodies against the cake?”
Your mistletoe is no match for my TOW missile!
This isn't a productive area of discussion.
Got to do a bad Kissinger expression while you say it.
“Hahahaha”
Oh wait. You’re serious? Let me laugh even harder.
“HAHAHAHA”

"What about what?" - Philip J Fry responding to the professor yelling WHAT in a tiny ship in Fry's ear when the professor and crew controlled tiny robot versions of themselves to sneak inside Fry's body
"wooooooooo"
I know exactly which scene you are referring to hahaha damn this show.
I've been known to day, "I did do the nasty in the past-y," when I discover I've made a mistake.
Hey, Professor. You're a professor.
My absolute favorite line is, "Spare me your space age technobabble, Attila the Hun."
That same episode also gave us the phrase, "a partially barfed-up heart," which is a phrase I can't even type here without laughing.
I can't believe everybody's just ad-libbing!
The use of words expressing something other than their literal intention. Now that is ironyyy
Bender, depressed walks up to a bar:
"Gimmie your largest, strongest, cheapest drink"
Old lady: Like I always say, live fast and die young Bender: You should say something else

Other ones that come out when the opportunity arises.
"Don't you worry about blank, let me worry about blank."
"Fifty-six!!!!"
"First one, then the other."
"Thanks to denial, I'm immortal!"
And the obligatory, "good news everyone!"
Hah Billiy West what a funny madre up name!
