Sentences you'll never forget

[SpyroForLife]

Ax: Dapsen. It's a Yeerk word that means... Well, never mind what it means, it's not nice.
LOL
Random kid: Say "Howard Stern rules!"
Parrot: Squuuaaaakkk! Amazon Cafe! It's an adventure!
Random kid: No, idiot bird dude, Howard Stern rules, man! Say "Howard Stern rules!"
Rachel: Moron.
Random kid: Yeah, this bird is a total moron.
Rachel: I wasn't talking about the bird, you-
For some reason, that scene always stuck with me.
Marco: Five bucks says she says, "Let's do it."
Rachel: Let's... go for it.
Marco: Hey, she cheated!

Yes or NO convo wit Ax and Marco's dad

and everything in the Ellimist Chronicles

[KrazyTrumpeter05]

Yes or NO convo wit Ax and Marco's dad

That was probably the most hilarious part of all the books.

[dragonarmy]

This one's probably already up at some point in this thread, but it's one of my favorite exchanges:
Ax: "I am ready. R-r-r-ready. Red. E. Red. E."
Marco: "How about putting on a shirt?"
Ax: "The men who are young and restless do not wear shirts. I am young. And I am occasionally restless."
Marco: "Ax?"
Ax: "Yes, Marco?"
Marco: "Put on a shirt."

"Is that a bear?"

"Yeah"

"Is it mopping the floor?"

"Uh-huh."

"Have we gone nuts?"

"I'm not nuts. It's the bear who's nuts. That's carpeted up there."

I cracked up when I was reading this scene; I laughed so hard my sides hurt, and everyone around me looked at me like I was crazy. Very fun!

I loved that one. XD Ax loves to watch "Young and Restless". But not as much as he loves These Messages.

I don't know if anybody put this....

"T'Shondra," I said.

"Marco," she said.

"A beautiful name for a beautiful girl," I said.

"What is? Marco?"

"No, T'Shondra."

"What?"

"T'Shondra. I was just saying I thought it would be a beautiful name for
a beautiful girl."

"Oh, really!" she said, giving me serious fish-eye. "It would be, huh?
For a beautiful girl. But not for me, huh? Is that what you're saying? You just came all the way
over here, acting all cool, to tell me I should give my name to some beautiful girl because I'm too much of a pig to have the name?"

At this point I could have explained. But I had this bad feeling that the moment was past. You know? Like nothing I could possibly say was going to make this work.

"How about if we just say this conversation never happened?" I
suggested. "How about if I just turn and walk away?"

"That would be a good idea."

Now, where was I? Oh yeah, my name is Marco. And I can't tell you my last name or where I live. Why not? Because I'm hoping to live long enough to figure out females, that's why.

All traces.

Or so I'd thought.
I was walking away from T'Shondra, shaking my head and muttering to
myself about females, when I saw it.

I didn't even see the kid holding it at first. I just saw the box.

The blue box.

The morphing cube.

I didn't see it here, but I really liked in MM4 when the Ellimist was all It will end to Jake.

For some reason one of Karen's lines from #19 has always stuck in my brain:

"Hey, we're not cows," Marco snapped. "You can't compare what you do to humans with what we do to cows."
"Sure I can. You're our meat!" Karen said.

I can really hear the harsh, spiteful line coming from a little girl's mouth in my head.

I read most of the series a long time ago (over 10 years ago), never finished it, and just started rereading them.  I'm amazed at the sense of humor and some of the content of the series.

"Hi, Rachel" book 13, brought a tear to my eye

"There's only one way to deal with fear: Be afraid.  Be afraid and then do what you have to do anyway"

"Oh my God! She killed Kenny!"

"the use of rhetoric to obscure a lack of content"
"That's brilliant! It means the same as 'total bull' but sounds so much better"

"wait did he just say his name is Jeremy?"

"I'm okay.  Professor Plum did it in the conservatory with the candlestick"

"Gee, Really?!  Do you think?! Hold my breath?!"

"They're looking for andalites in morph"
"He's right.  Jake? Start peeing on things again"

"See, I've always believed that to some extent you get to decide for yourself what your life will be like.   You can either look at the world and say, 'oh, isn't it all so tragic, so grim, so awful.' Or you can look at the world and decide it's mostly funny."

Pretty much anything Jake said about being a leader. It didn't interest me much the first time I read them, but now it really hits home. It's weird and almost scary how many of those exact thoughts and feelings I've had.  And I finally get why Ax always calls him prince.

[JohnBlaze]

What book had the whole "they're looking for Andalites...Jake keep peeing"?

[Aluminator (Kit)]

That's gotta be 3, unless I'm mistaken

[Ferahgo]

Yep, pretty sure it's when they morph wolves for the first time, which was #3.

[Dameg]

Yeah ^^ That was awesome lol They don't go very quickly, because Jake pees everywhere all the time lol He can't help himself ^^' Poor Jake.
