==Quotes==
:Dave: I only have one simple rule for dating my teenage daughter: if she sees your penis, I'll cut it off!
:Vicky: (to Hillary about Hillary's date with a senior) Is that true?
:Hillary: No. He's a freshman... in college.
:Vicky: Hillary!
:Hillary: Are you gonna make a big deal out of this?
:(Cut scene)
:Dave: Okay. Okay, be firm, but understanding. It's all the way you say it.
:(Reality)
:Dave: No ****ing way are you going!
:Dave: Taye. Tha-Tha-That's an interesting name.
:Taye: Yeah, it's short for "Boo-tay."
:Mike: If you think about it, PlayStation, is, uh, is really less a game and more an educational toy.
:Vicky: Oh. You mean the $200 one we already said you're not getting?
:Mike: Mom, we can afford it. Why else do you work at that doctor's office?
:Vicky: To get out of the house.
:Dave: Hey, whatever happened to, uh, "Parents that smoke have kids that smoke"?
:Vicky: You really want to make an issue out of this, Mr. "Pornography in Your Sock Drawer"? 'Cause I'm willing to quit anytime you are.
:Vicky: Oh, and I told Larry he could stay over at Kenny's Friday night.
:Dave: Again?
:Vicky: Yeah.
:Dave: At 15, you don't have sleepovers, okay? Whatever you do with a buddy, you can finish by 10:00. I'm telling you, he's gay.
:Vicky: You don't know that.
:Dave: Vicky, when you don't know if someone's gay or not, they're always gay.
:Vicky: He's not gay. He's a normal kid. All right, he's not normal, but he's not gay.
:Hillary: Guess what, Dad? I can lose my virginity just as easily at 4:00 in the afternoon as I can at midnight.
:Dave: Oh, good to know. Your new curfew's 3:30.
:Dave: My dad had it easy. In his day, if you brought home a paycheck and didn't beat your kids, you were father of the year.
:Kenny: Hey, you wanna come over? I just got the new Kelly Clarkson CD.
:Larry: You're so gay sometimes!
:(Cut scene)
:Kenny: He was just kidding, right? He doesn't know... does he?
:Larry: Dad, I'm not gay.
:Dave: What? I'm just, you know, making conversation here. But if you were, you know... a gay, we'd love you no matter what! Not that you are... are you?
:Larry: (sarcastically) Yes, I am. I am a gay. Kenny isn't my best friend. He's my lover. So, would you prefer if he calls you Dave or dad?
:(Cut scene)
:Dave: We always told them we had no favorites but, who's kidding who. This kid isn't even in the running!
