* National Lampoon's "Vacation" series has tons, but one that stands out in this troper's mind is a completely throwaway moment in ''Christmas Vacation'' where, while out shopping, Clark puts some lightbulbs on his shopping cart, which are crushed by the enormous bag of dogfood Cousin Eddie puts on top of them not a second later. The fact that neither of them notice it at all is just awesome.
** Also: "SQUIIIIIIIIIRREEEEEEELLL!"
** Fried Pussycat!
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vuVW78tCTM&feature=related this epic rantfest]]....Where's the Tylenol?!

*** Bend over and I'll show you!
** Tch... Bingo!

* ''National Lampoon'''s radio show had its share of funny commercials. In one for the magazine, a father catches his son reading an issue of ''National Lampoon'' and chews him out for reading filth like that which makes fun of important stuff like politics, money, and religion. Then, when the tirade is over, he casually adds "And by the way, you're sleeping with your mother tonight. [[ParentalIncest It's my turn]] [[SiblingIncest with your sister.]]"

* ''Film/AnimalHouse''.
** ''"Assume the Position!"'' ''"Thank you sir! May I have another?"'' Made it even funnier when you see ''who'' plays the guy getting spanked.
** The food fight scene. Full stop.
** The greatest RousingSpeech in all of film? The [[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077975/quotes whole speech]] is epic, but especially this:
---> '''Bluto''': Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over till WE say it's over! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! HELL NO!
---> '''Otter''': Germans?
---> '''Boon''': Forget it, he's rolling.
** Otter and Boon practice their golf swings.
** "May we dance with your dates?"

--->'''Clark:''' I think you're all fucked in the head. We're ten hours from the fucking fun park and you want to bail out. Well I'll tell you something. This is no longer a vacation. It's a quest. It's a quest for fun. I'm gonna have fun and you're gonna have fun. We're all gonna have so much fucking fun we'll need plastic surgery to remove our goddamn smiles. You'll be whistling 'Zip-A-Dee Doo-Dah' out of you're assholes! I gotta be crazy! I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose. Praise Marty Moose! Holy Shit!
