Lar Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Maybe not so much comebacks as they are casual remarks/statements, but in no particular order (and I'm *mostly* going from memory here):- "That was uncool lady. That was major uncool." (I use this one all the time, albeit modified appropriately for different occasions.)- "That speed metal crap is just warmed over Hendrix licks, played twice as fast and half as well!"- "5000 street corners in greater Miami, and Gumby here's gotta pick ours!"- "Maybe...you won't even...twitch."- "Somewhere where the water is warm, the drinks are cold, and I don't know the names of the players."I'm sure I'll think of more great ones later tonight. Sonny had a LOT of great quotes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny had a LOT of great quotes!I had my mind on that one.I also like the whole "Sometimes the hardest to get isn't always the best" dialog exchange in "Prodigal Son" was pretty cool.I try to use "pal" in my vocabulary but it hasn't been put to good use yet:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamijimf Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 You guys listed some of my favorites: "That speed metal crap is just warmed over Hendrix licks, played twice as fast and half as well!" (Good description of lots of music even these days)"This is Miami pal,where you can't even tell the players without a program"-Pilot (and a few other episodes) (This is true, the culture is different)"Maybe...you won't even...twitch."Here's another one of my favorite lines:“McGregor canal bobbing with a mouthful of lead.†(Sonny in Lend Me An Ear) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny-Burnett Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Way more than 5 come to mind so a few are (round 1):~You just got to learn to go with the heat, Rico. It's just like life. You just gotta keep telling yourself, no matter how hot it gets, sooner or later there's a cool breeze coming in.~ The secret to success, whether it's women or money, is knowing when to quit. I oughta know: I'm divorced and broke.~You've got to know the rules before you can break 'em. Otherwise, it's no fun.~I get these occasional urges for stability in my life.~Nice to know there's still a little poetry left in the world.~People in stucco houses shouldn't throw quiche. (I like this one because my house is stucco!)~Aw, the hell with it. You want to be dead? Bang, you're dead.~Forget who I am? Darling, sometimes I remember who I am.

Administrators James Posted December 21, 2013 Administrators Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 The only one which comes to mind..."It's just like life... Just gotta keep telling yourself - No matter how hot it gets, sooner or later there's a cool breeze coming in."I gotta watch the series again. Been re-watching Dexter and Burn Notice lately. My three favourite shows are based in Miami... How did that happen... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detective_Crockett Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Crockett has so many awesome comebacks, but one of my favorite ones is ''Get a haircut.'' from Milk Run that he says to that girl at the cinema with a shaved head. xD Edited January 28, 2014 by Detective_Crockett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
