History Funny / TheBigLebowski

** The Dude has to actually point out to these dimwits that his crummy apartment is clearly not the abode of a multi-millionaire, and to offer proof that he's not married he presents them with Exhibit A: [[ToiletSeatDivorce "The toilet seat's up, man!"]]

* Many of the gratuitous echoes and words one character borrows from another, "parlance of our times", unchecked [[UsefulNotes/GulfWar aggression]] which will not stand, coitus, johnson etc...

** "They're gonna cut your dick off, Larry."

* (see SpitTake at the main page): "What is that, yoga?", "It increases the chances of conception" ...

'''Walter:''' (''longer beat'') Eight year olds, Dude.

** Donny's concentration as he tries to keep visual contact with the Jesus ''through'' The Dude's bended arms.

* The police chief in Malibu (combined with NauseaFuel, because he makes you so sick) throwing the coffee mug right in Dude's face after he replies "Sorry, I wasn't listening" to his long and cautionary TheReasonYouSuckSpeech (in a way, the irritant indeference makes it look even funnier while almost justified, nevertheless). Enhanced by Dude's reaction ("Ow, fucking fascist!").

-->'''The Dude''': I don't need your fucking sympathy, man [Walter]. I need my fucking Johnson.

* Walter giving a damn about possession of wildlife inside a city when The Dude's Johnson is on the line:

* The thug who defaces the rug pronouncing "Ever thus to deadbeats" in the process, as if making a political point a la "Sic Semper Tyrannis" in the assasinations of UsefulNotes/JuliusCaesar and UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln.

* The Dude, possibly the least likely person in existence to ever use the RoyalWe on purpose, trying to pull a RoyalWe with Big Lebowski when he realizes he inadvertedly mentioned Walter came along.
* The Dude thinking the boys in the picture are Big Lebowksi's literal children from different mothers,

* Walter thinking the manipulative bastard Big Lebowski is ObfuscatingDisability inmediately becomes--rather unsurprisingly--ComedicSociopathy.

** Made doubly hilarious by the fact that the man is shaped like a giant phallus himself from torso upwards. In other words, a giant anthromorphic penis with a long erect penis of his own.

'''Dude''': ''(legitimately confused)'' It's...it's... it's down there somewhere; let me take another look.

-->'''Jesus:''' Let me tell you something pendejo. You pull any of that crazy shit with us, you flash a piece out on the lanes, [[CutHisHeartOutWithASpoon I'll take it away from you and stick it up your ass and pull the fucking trigger till it goes click.]]\\

'''Jesus:''' You said it man. Nobody fucks with The Jesus.
** '''Walter:''' Eight year olds, Dude.

Lady, I GOT BUDDIES WHO DIED FACE DOWN IN THE MUCK SO YOU AND I CAN ENJOY THIS FAMILY RESTAURANT\\

-->'''Walter:''' ''*{{beat}}*'' "I'm staying. I'm finishing my coffee... Enjoyin' my coffee."

* Right off the bat--poor dude is having his head forcefully flushed through his toilet at the behest of two random thugs...

* The entire scene with Smokey.

* The mere fact that Walter, a giant and alleged war veteran feels bested and "stonewalled" by Larry, a boy who doesn't even say a word.

* If you're mostly familiar with Philip Seymour Hoffman's serious roles, every one of his lines as TheComicallySerious LargeHam Brandt becomes hysterical. Special mention goes to the limo scene:

-->'''Walter:''' "...[[AC:I'm calmer'n you are]]."

--> '''"DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FIND A STRANGER IN THE ALPS?! DO YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS LARRY?! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, LARRY, WHEN YOU FEED A SOLDIER SCRAMBLED EGGS!!"'''

* The thug who defaces the rug pronouncing "Ever thus to deadbeats" in the process, as if making a political point a la "Sic Semper Tyrannis" in the assasinations of Creator/GaiusJuliusCaesar and UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln.

-->'''Walter''': Smokey this is not Nam, this is bowling there are rules.
-->'''Walter''': [[SeriousBusiness Has the whole world gone CRAZY? AM I THE ONLY ONE AROUND HERE WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT THE RULES? MARK IT ZERO!]]

'''Walter:''' ...Eight year olds, Dude.'''

* Walter "commends" [[spoiler:Donny's]] remains to the Pacific Ocean. But the wind commends them all the way into the Dude's face.

* For BlackComedy, the Dude holding in his contempt for Walter's eulogy for Donny [[OneTractMind drifting into a rant about the Vietnam War]], and then Dude's facial expression [[TranquilFury not changing at all]] for a few seconds as Walter carelessly allows the wind to blow Donny's ashes into Dude's face.

* Walter automatically assumes that AllGermansAreNazis only to praise them in comparison to nihilists a moment later.
