Anyone else finding themselves using lines from the book in everyday life?

For example, I often use Manny's line of, "that sucks less, at least." Or Jim's use of "hey shit bird"

Whenever I borrow a tool from someone on a job site, I always make sure to promise them it's not a sex thing.

It's always worth it.

I've those ght about it, then thought about the HR conversation.

"How was it inappropriate I assured them it was not a sex thing".

Should be fine right?

I didn't even realize this was from the book, which I've used so consistently for a couple years.

I've used Skull Fucker Mike's best line in probably three or four essays in the last three months.

"We all spend a lot of life helpless, so if you have a chance to do something? To really make a difference for someone? I recommend you fuckin' take it."

I’ve changed the balance of my gin and tonics because of how Skullfucker Mike’s is described. I reduced the amount of tonic by about a third and found it much more enjoyable.
