9. my favorite..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Peter Gibbons : What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Lawrence : I'll tell you what I'd do, man, two chicks at the same time, man.
Peter Gibbons : That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence : Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had a million dollars I could hook that up, cause chicks dig a dude with money.
Peter Gibbons : Well, not all chicks.
Lawrence : Well the kind of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.
Peter Gibbons : Good point.
Lawrence : Well what about you now? what would you do?
Peter Gibbons : Besides two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence : Well yeah.
Peter Gibbons : Nothing.
Lawrence : Nothing, huh?
Peter Gibbons : I'd relax, I would sit on my ass all day, I would do nothing.
Lawrence : Well you don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Just take a look at my cousin, he's broke, don't do shit.

11. PC Load Letter? What the fuck does that mean?
Every user interface designer should watch that movie. Or that scene alone, plus the one when they lynch the copier.

18. I got a user
called me when I used to work a helpdesk with a pc load letter error. Laughed my ass off. She didn't get it..

We also blew the shit out of a laserjet 3 with a pump shotgun and BAR. Also funny, if you've ever been a printer admin..

30. Oh yes!
Ahhh hilarity.

I SAW this movie because a friend reported on a scenario where she couldn't get the printer working at the office and stood up and shouted that gloriousness out:

“PC Load Letter? What the fuck does that mean?”

thereby bedazzling half the office with her incredible lack of civility, and making the rest of them bust a gut.

Good times.

14. "I must have messed up a decimal....
.. I am always screwing up some mundane detail like that!"

I am a programmer, so its resonates :)

Followed closely by "But at least I didn't sleep with Lumberg!" and the entire money laundering scene

20. "You see Bob, it's not that I'm lazy, it's that I just don't care"
Peter, to one of the Bob's. If their could be one quote to sum up my own life, that would probably be it.

Also, IMO, the funniest exchange in the movie:

Joanna : So, where do you work, Peter?

Peter Gibbons : Initech.

Joanna : In-yeah, what do you do there?

Peter Gibbons : I sit in a cubicle and I update bank software for the 2000 switch.

Joanna : What's that?

Peter Gibbons : Well see, they wrote all this bank software, and, uh, to save space, they used two digits instead of four. So like 98 instead of 1998? Uh, so I go through these thousands of lines of code and, uh... it doesn't really matter. I uh, I don't like my job, and, uh, I don't think I'm gonna go anymore.

Joanna : You're just not gonna go?

Peter Gibbons : Yeah.

Joanna : Won't you get fired?

Peter Gibbons : I don't know, but I really don't like it, and, uh, I'm not gonna go.

Joanna : So you're gonna quit?

Peter Gibbons : Nah-uh. Not really. Uh... I'm just gonna stop going.

Joanna : When did you decide all that?

Peter Gibbons : About an hour ago.

Joanna : An hour ago... so you're gonna get another job?

Peter Gibbons : I don't think I'd like another job.

Joanna : Well, what are you going to do about money and bills and...

Peter Gibbons : You know, I've never really liked paying bills. I don't think I'm gonna do that, either

31. I was told that I could listen to the radio...
...at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven, I told Bill that if Sandra is going to listen to her headphones while she's filing then I should be able to listen to the radio while I'm collating so I don't see why I should have to turn down the radio because I enjoy listening at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven.
