The most famous mis-quotes...

Top three of the most popular mis-quotes has to be "Houston, we have a problem!"

Seems almost everyone knows that as the words spoken by the Apollo 13 astronauts. When in fact the quote is "Okay, Houston, we've had a problem here." This phrase was uttered by pilot Jack Swiger.

Other famous misquotes?

Gee, Scrote... never seen that tactic used here before.

Are we witnessing a Kansas City evolution (Cro-Mag to Neanderthal)?

"Divide and Conquer"...?

No, it was actually,

"Divide and Rule"...

Big difference.

I've always been bothered when people misquote the "I don't hafta show you any stinking badges" scene in The Treasure of Sierra Madre.

The youtube clip title is a perfect example:

On the subject of Bogart movies, Rick never said, "Play it again, Sam" in Casablanca. He just said, "Play it."

While not technically a misquote, the phrase used to denote that there are multiple ways to achieve the same result was not originally, "There's more than one way to skin a cat," but rather, "There is more than one way to kill a cat." Not sure why feline death and/or mutilation needed to be invoked at all, though.

Eh, I'm pretty sure he said "sexual relations."

The book was even a little different. A few words that prolly wouldn't have gotten by the censors when the movie was made.

"Badges, to god-damned hell with badges! We have no badges. In fact, we don't need badges. I don't have to show you any stinking badges, you god-damned cabrón and ching' tu madre! Come out from that shit-hole of yours."

Nope, it was: *fingerwag* "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky."

"Any tard who this they are the same is an iodot."

I know of one poster who says this is a misquote anyway.

Technically, throw "and" in the front of that quote and it is exactly right.

I've heard it a thousand times:

"Luke, I am your father."

Real quote from movie:

"No. *I* am your father."

Dwarves are known for having pudgy fingers and slow metabolisms, so you were mostly likely born fucked up. Don't sweat it.

I noticed that right after I did it....hence the reason it is now gone.

C'mon Indy, take it, make it cool. Don't be swayed by peer pressure.

indyfrisco · Post by **indyfrisco** » Fri Apr 01, 2011 11:44 pm

Tom, I think you confuse peer pressure with peer avoidance. Peer pressure is when to want to be like others. I have had my day in the sun with faggy shit albeit a faux pas. I try not to diss on AP as he has been a deece BBQ sauce customer. he makes it hard to bite the tongue as much as I do.

And I will attest that Indy's BBQ sauce is kick ass! Just BBQ'd ribs 2 days ago. It should be on store shelves.
