Barry Quote #1021
Quote from Barry in Preventa Mode
Barry: Knock, knock. Wow. Check out all these books. It's like that weird store in the mall that sells books.
Elana Reid: Well, you've got to read a lot of them if you want a PhD.
Barry: I get it. I'm gonna be a doctor, too, but, like, a real one who plays God and parks wherever he wants and tells loved ones he tried but it's their nana's time.
Elana Reid: [chuckles] I knew you were funny. That paper you wrote comparing Weber's theory of rationalization to LL Cool J's song "Big Ole Butt" made me laugh out loud.
Barry: I am so glad! You're so cool and pretty and know all of LL Cool J's masterwork on butts. [chuckles] Go out with me tonight.
Elana Reid: That's intense, considering it's Valentine's Day.
Barry: Oh, no, Barry. You asked your dream woman out on the most romantically charged day of the year?
Elana Reid: It's okay.
Barry: No, forget I said anything. I'll just drop the class and quit school and become a lowly sixth man on a struggling NBA franchise.
Elana Reid: Don't become a Charlotte Hornet.
Barry: You know the NBA? I can't take it. Reveal your shortcomings.

Quote from Andy
Geoff: Hey, JTP. We thought we'd swing by and check in on you guys. We know how lonely Valentine's Day can be.
Erica: But cheggit, you're all dressed up. So I guess you found dates?
Naked Rob: And yet we did not.
Andy: In fact, we have no romantic prospects at all.
Matt: So, in lieu of lady companionship, we decided to celebrate our friendship.
Andy: We call it Pal-entine's Day.
Erica: At least you improved the name, because last year's Valen-dudes Day was a real big whiff.
Andy: First, we're gonna go to Dante & Luigi's for a little linguine and laughs.
Naked Rob: Then a carriage ride around Rittenhouse Square to see the city lights.
Matt: Finally, ice-skating at this rink my uncle manages. He's gonna let us use it after hours, so it'll be just us.
Andy: I know it sounds crazy, you guys, but I really think we could raise a baby.
Quote from Barry
Adult Adam: [v.o.] Back in the '80s, our teachers looked like this. They were sad-sacks, angry-sacks, or lonely-sacks. But that all changed in college, when Barry actually had a hot teacher.
Barry: Pour some knowledge on me.
Erica: Stop it, Barry. She is an intelligent woman who shouldn't be reduced to just an object, and, oh, my God, she's got cheekbones for days.
Barry: Why would she be a T.A. when she could be holding a number to indicate what round it is in a boxing match?
Erica: The only thing I get is that you're a super gross horn dog.
Barry: But it's not just that. She actually makes me want to learn. I'm hot for teacher.
Erica: Like the Van Halen song?
Barry: That song perfectly captures both her profession and my feelings towards that profession.
Quote from Erica
Erica: What the hell? You got an A, too?
Barry: Yeah. I cranked that bad boy out quick. That's Barry's number-one trick for academic success... Speed.
Erica: There is no way we both earned A's.
Barry: Erica, when you say things like that, it makes me think you think I'm not intelligent.
Erica: I don't. You are widely considered stupider than me by family, society, and any jacket with a zipper.
Barry: That was one jacket! And you're just mad that I got the same grade as you.
