Demo Quotes:

  • Demo: [to Tripp] You were bitten by a chuckwalla. That shouldn't have happened. It's a reptile of peace. I have a theory. This isn't the first time that nature's lashed out at you like this. I believe it's because your life is fundamentally at odds with the natural world.

    Tripp: Huh?

    Demo: Therefore, nature rejects you.

  • Tripp: Dude, did you just drop me from a forty-foot cliff? I mean, you want to talk about a friend, man. You went behind my back and blackmailed your way into getting your girlfriend.

    Demo: He's right.

    Ace: I'm sorry I dropped you from a cliff.

    Tripp: It's okay.

    Demo: Granted, he used you, but not out of malice. Look at him. How many chances is he gonna get? He saw a chance for love, Tripp, and he took it, which is exactly what we wanted for you.

    Tripp: Am I getting advice from my two loser buddies who still live at home?

    Ace: Actually, I own my home.

    Demo: What?

    Tripp: No, you don't.

    Ace: I bought it a couple of years ago from my Mom. That way, she has a place to live and I don't get nailed on the inheritance tax.

    Demo: Smart.

    Tripp: Wow.

    Ace: And Demo, here, has chosen the life of a wanderer. I mean, sure, he technically still lives at home.

    Demo: Yeah.

    Ace: But his permanent address is in his heart. He's a bum.

    Demo: I think what we're trying to say is that the two of us are happy, and we're perfectly functional.

    Ace: And you, Tripp, are not.

  • Tripp: I do sleep well at night.

    Ace: On a twin bed, with Superman sheets that you've had since you were six.

    Demo: As opposed to you, who sleeps in a King-sized bed in your mother's basement.

    Ace: It's orthopedic, and I need it. And at least I'm not sponging off my parents so I can afford to get laid on every continent.

    Demo: Whoa, whoa... I'm a ramblin' man, I'm a tumble weed, I'm a seeker of truth! And one truth I've learned - a child is a parent's greatest joy, which is why I can't leave my parents' place, because... because they would miss me!

  • Demo: And yet, in America, we're-we're shunned for our lifestyle.

    Tripp: When we should be celebrating our lifestyle. We are men who still live at home.

    Demo: Yes.

    Tripp: We're not here to apologize about who we are, how we do it, or who we live with.

    Demo: No!

    Tripp: I'm looking around this table, hombres, and I see three winners, huh? And to every one of those out there who sees something different, I say "bring it on," 'cause it's gonna take a stick of dynamite to get me out of my parents' house.

  • Tripp: [trying to feed a chipmunk a chocolate bar] You want a treat from the big city, boy?

    Demo: He's not a child, Tripp. Look how peaceful he is.

    Tripp: Come here, little boy. You want a little bit of chocolate, baby-boo-boo?

    Demo: You're giving him a Power Bar?

    Tripp: Everybody loves chocolate. Baby-boo-boo?

    Demo: Tripp, he's saying no.

    Tripp: Look into my eyes.

    Demo: He's saying no, Tripp.

    Tripp: Baby-boo-boo?

    [chipmunk bites Tripp's hand]

    Tripp: Aaow!

  • Tripp: It's over. She gotta go.

    Ace: You're dumping Paula?

    Demo: What happened?

    Tripp: Same thing that always happens. Everything is going along nice and smooth, we're having a good time, and all of a sudden, out of nowhere - whoap! - she gets serious. I hate to say it, boys, but it is time to take the girl home.

  • Demo: What are you gonna do now?

    Tripp: I don't know. I'm in unchartered waters here, boys.

  • Demo: I feel a little bit bad because I kind of implied to Paula that I wouldn't say anything, but deception's a poison. It's like margarine - I can't have that in my body.

  • Sue: [to Tripp] And, uh, your bathroom needs cleaning, so I left the stuff in the hall; and, when you're done with the rubber gloves, just remember to turn them inside out. Bye.

    Demo: Something's wrong with your mom.
