Tim Quote #479

Quote from Tim in Roomie for Improvement

Tim: Anyway, I've got a little test I got here today that could be kinda fun. I had our sound man, Klaus, put together some engine sounds. We're gonna play the engine sounds back and see if these professionals can tell us which engine's which. You guys wanna play?
Mario Andretti: Sure.
Michael Andretti: Let's do it.
Al: We're ready.
Tim: You're not playing, Al. Take your hands off the guests. OK, Klaus, if you will, that first engine. [engine sound] Anybody?
Michael Andretti: That'd be a Ford five-liter V-eight.
Tim: Right on the money, yeah. Well, let's see if daddy-o here is as smart as his boy. All right, Mario, it's your chance. Klaus, second motor. [engine sound]
Mario Andretti: Two-liter Alpha Romeo Spider engine.
Tim: Bull's-eye. Bull's-eye! Unbelievable. Bravo!
Al: You know, for a moment there I thought it was the three-liter.
Mario Andretti: Actually, so did I. Hey, you're pretty good. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't mind having you on my pit crew.
Tim: Hey, what about me?
Mario Andretti: I wouldn't mind having you on Danny Sullivan's pit crew.
Al: Another good one, Mario.

Quote from Al

Tim: Anyway, let's get back to our salute... to lubricants. For this demonstration, we've split this straight six-cylinder down the middle.
Al: Tim, my mother has very fine taste. Her shirts look nothing like this.
Tim: Right, Al. Anyway, try to imagine, if you will, that my fists are pistons. All right, Al. Close up the engine.
Al: Gladly, Tim.
Tim: OK. Let's try to start this engine. Well, it won't start. That's because the pistons are stuck. Just like they were last year during the NBA play-offs. But they will move if they're lubricated. That's if the oil pump is pumping oil through the system, the pistons will move. So, let's open the engine up and show 'em how the oil gets in there. Grab the oil and open me up, Al.
Al: Ah, here it is, of course, motor oil. Well, gee. I wouldn't want to get any of this on my nice shirt my mother gave me. I better go change before I let you out.
Tim: Come on, open this up, Al. Al! Tool Time tip of the day: when you're insulting your coworker's mother, make sure you're not locked into an engine compartment. Al, I know you're back there. Al, I know right where you're standing. Al, let me out.

Quote from Al

Tim: Come on, let me in.
Al: [o.s.] Go away, Tim.
Tim: Al, you can't end it like this. We've had a relationship for three years.
Al: [o.s.] It's over between us.
Tim: [sees Cynthia] Al, open the door.
Al: [o.s.] No! You should never have made that recording of me in bed. [Cynthia drops her groceries]

Quote from Tim

Jill: I'm so glad Mark is finally better. I'm just exhausted.
Tim: In the hotel room, the bed was like sleeping on a bag of rocks.
Jill: And the room was so small, wasn't it?
Tim: Small? So small the mice were hunchbacked. It was so small, I put my key in the door, it went through the window. So small, all you could order was condensed milk. I had a folding toothbrush. It was so small, there was no room for complaints.
