Beam Me Up, Scotty/Quotes

""Why do these films always forget to put their most famous lines in?""

- David Mitchell, QI

"Kyon: "Nyoro~n" is a portmanteau of "nyoro" (Tsuruya's idiosyncratic speech quirk, her "desu" what have you) and the Japanese onomatopeia for dejection. The tilde isn't "pronounced" anything, it's a damn sound lengthener, as in "nyorooooon", so all you idiots going "nyoroOoOon" can shut the fuck up! Furthermore (and this is important), Tsuruya never, ever, says "Nyoro~n." She says nyoro, do you fucking understand? "Nyoro~n" is a creation of Eretto, the author of the Churuya comics. She doesn't fucking say it. Do you understand? She doesn't fucking say it. She doesn't fucking say it. She doesn't fucking say it. She doesn't fucking say it. She doesn't fucking say it. There."

Churuya: Nyoro~n..."

""'Lead On, MacDuff,' is a common and perfectly acceptable phrase. It appears in important works of fact and fiction from a dozen different worlds. Even if it was originally a misquotation, it's earned its own place in any idiomatic pantheon""

- Jack Frost, Jack of Fables

"'"Right," said Richard. And he smiled unconvincingly and added, "Well, lead on, MacDuff." ...

...

The abbot sipped his tea, in silence. And then he said, with honest regret in his voice, "It's 'lay on, MacDuff,' actually. But I hadn't the heart to correct him."'"
