    Tourist: Really? That doesn't sound right.
    Max: Aah ...

    Max: Steaktanic.
    Dave: One liter of garlic aeoli.
    Max: Steaktanic.

    Avi: My cleanse is pretty next level. I'm only eating clear foods, and I've given up all sexual intimacies. That's right, y'all. Avi's celibate.
    Penny: Are you sure that's a choice, Avi?
    Avi: Good dig. But jealousy is not a sweat pant that fits you well.
    Max: Bu-bu-burn!
    Alex: [goes for a high five] Oh yeah...
    Avi: Please, don't touch me! I'll explode like a water bottle on a cross country flight to Albuquerque.

    Avi: JFK.
    Penny: Get out of my bed room!

    Jane: [After Brad's suggestion to postpone Christmas in favour of celebrating Janemas] What's Janemas?

    Jan: Guys, I really appreciate what you're trying to do okay, but you can't shut Christmas out. It's unstoppable.
    Brad: Oh, we're stopping it, missy, today. Alex is going to keep her weird present opening fetish under wraps, no pun intended.
    Alex: I don't get it anyway.
    Brad: And Max is going to be eggnostic for the day, pun intended.
    Max: I'm not saying there is eggnog, I'm not saying there's not eggnog, what I'm saying is, there's no way to know for sure.

### Ordinary Extraordinary Love [3.09]

    Alex: OK, let's do this. What's my gay category?
    Derrick: OK, you're a twink, but I've seen you eat so you're a sloppy twink, which is not as much fun as it sounds. Penny, you drink a lot, you are really loud and you have a lot of embarrassing stories about dating. Bitch, you are a hag.
    Penny: But I used to be a beard so I take that as a win.
    Jane: I thought I was a hag.
    Derrick: No, you're a top, plain and simple.
    Jane: Damn right I am.
    Dave: Oh, I know what I am. I'm a scruffy power bottom because I have a goatee and I do lots of glute exercises.
    Derrick: Your reasoning is wrong but your conclusion is correct.
    Brad: Do me, do me.
    Derrick: Oh, would that I could. Would that I freaking could.

### The Ex Factor [3.11]

    Max: [takes out a wad of cash] Anyway, don't worry about the check, guys. I got this one.
    Dave: What? Whoa.
    Max: I have a little bit of disposable income these days.
    Jane: Max, you cannot have disposable income when you owe us 11,000 dollars and three cats.
    Max: You'll get those cats when you get those cats, Jane. And the reason I have all this extra casheesh is because my new roommate decided to pay me five months' rent in advance.
    Dave: Ah yes, el nuevo roommate. When are we going to meet this guy?
    Max: Oh no, you won't. I told that guy that we are going to live totally separate lives. I will not make the same mistake I made with my last roommate and get all invested in his personal business.
    Dave: That was me.
    Max: Yeah, and I will not make that blunder again.

### The Marry Prankster [3.12]

### Our Best Friend's Wedding [3.13]

    Max: My only previous interracial relationship was with a Basque, but it ended 'cause, for a separatist, he was quite clingy.
