Go To


1	* The RunningGag turned MemeticMutation:
2	-->"I WANT MY TWO DOLLARS!"
3	* The trenchant social commentary provided when Lane is found enduring the horror of being in the garbage truck:
4	-->"Now that's a real shame when folks be throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that."
5	* "I'm real sorry your mom blew up, Ricky."
6	* "It's got raisins in it. You ''like'' raisins."
7	** Unfortunately the food didn't like to get poked at with a fork. Lane's utterly expressionless face just nails the gag home.
8	* The skiing instructions [[RunningGag everyone gives]] Lane in order to beat the K-12.
9	-->"Go that way, really fast. If something gets in your way, turn."
10	* Practically everything Creator/CurtisArmstrong as Charles de Mar says and does:
11	** "Lane, I've been going to this high school for seven and a half years. I'm no dummy!"
12	** "This is pure snow! Do you have any idea what the street value of this mountain is?!"
13	** "I think I just froze the left half of my brain! Look! (Waves arm around stiffly) I can't move my right arm!"
14	** When Stalin offers a rather lame insult to Lane and Charles, [[InsultBackfire Charles bursts into laughter]]. Like, a ''lot'' of laughter. So much laughter that Stalin eventually walks away in disgust, only for Charles to later interrupt Stalin's romantic dance with Beth because ''he's still gut-laughing''.
15	* Lane's Christmas presents. All he gets are a bunch of frozen TV dinners. His and his father's utterly nonplussed expressions, combined with his mother's enthusiasm, really sells it
16	** "I remember how much you liked the chocolate nut brownie in this one. And look! Corn and seasoned salt. He likes corn."
17	* "Which is better, speaking no English at all, or speaking Howard Cosell?"
18	* A subtle one: In the supermarket, Lane and Charles are talking, and Charles holds up a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whipped-cream_charger#Recreational_drug spray-can of whipped cream]], and says, "I can't even get any decent drugs around here!"
19	* During one of the drag races, Lane almost runs down a line of nuns attempting to cross the street. Not only are all of the nuns wearing variously colored aviator sunglasses, one of them is carrying a huge ghetto blaster boombox, for some reason.
20	** After crashing into a large puddle of water, Lane checks on his passengers. Monique is fine but can't stop laughing. Ricky, on the other hand...
