If you could only communicate using quotes from one TV show for the rest of your life, which show would you choose and how would that change your interactions? (lemmy.world)

I'd say Simpsons, because it has probably the largest base of useful quotes.

Firefly. Using gorramitt, shiny, "I'm shocked my own self", and "big damn hero" on the regs would be right some good.

Same, but mainly because I already have all of the quotes and I do use them fairly regularly. The only downside is that the show was murdered in its infancy by Fox who I will never forgive and thus provides a limited vocabulary.

Edit:

Also, "Per-maybe-haps I'm thinkin'."

Never forget what they did to us.

I always think of Fox as the Alliance. They change the order the shows aired and the time/date. Bastards.
