"What? What makes you think I have a gun?"
"You are working for the most armed organisation. Don't tell me they didn't issue you a gun!"
"They didn't issue me a gun!"
"What? Is it because of you? I'm not buying this, Manny!"

"Nice clothes."
"Thanks. Have you ever figured out how I did get these clothes in small, unknown, dangerous and unlivable island like this?"
"Uh, no."

By the way, it's my birthday tomorrow! :clap2:

I think that the Funniest part in the game was when you find out that Celso Florice turned his walking stick into a mop and was using it at the end of year one. Basicly there were a lot of .Funny parts. That was one of my favorites though.

em...i think you are wrong...he actually said (when you ask for the walking stick) that he has broken it on the head of one moster at the forest so as to escape (funny also :D )

On the roof of DOD, when you show the pigeons the Robert Frost balloon.

- Run you pigeons, it's Robert Frost !
Manny

It cracked me up

My all-time fave ...

If you try to use the Bust-All on Meche, Manny will say:
"I think I'd try couple's counseling first."

And if you try to have Manny pick up the kitty litter, he just starts to laugh. It makes me laugh.

There are loads of funny moments. I couldn't list all of mine. But one of my favourites was at the Blue Casket when Manny was trying to be funny on teh stage.

Ooh, that reminds me ...

When Manny's in the Blue Casket and you have him look at the sign by the door he goes, "Blue Casket. I should have named my club something like that. But no, I had to use my own name, like an idiot."

- How did it go for you in the poisoning?
- Well, let's say that the lady Maria got her secret passion in trains.
- You gave her the double-N-ticket?
- Choo choo! There she goes!

Manuel and Domino

- Manny, you couldn't find any sale or a jackpot.
- I got a sale right here!
- I'm talking "premium sale", Calavera! Like the Domino has.
- How am I supposed to get premium sales by the scumbag clients you're sending me for?
- Hey!
- Now you're blaming with the clients? I've had it with you, Manny. If you can't sell the tickets to the clients before next day you're out! Out in the street! No job! No more working off your time! Just your fancy suit and a big smile for whole long time now!
- Who do you call scumbag? Why I oughta?!

Don Copal, Manny Calavera and Bruno Martinez.

Now don't forget that Bowlsley. He's crazy when spooked.

GF is funny almost all the time:

I really loved how manny laughs when you try to use the kitty litter, hehe.

"You think you're better than me?"
"NO!"

:D

Also:

"Gotta cover my ass!"
"Yes you do."

"they might not realise how much scarier a dingo is than a regular dog."

That's it, I'm gonna use tons of GF quotes in my game! ;)

Manuel Calavera: You can't hide from the Grim Reaper! Especially when he's got a gun!

Manuel Calavera: My boss is always giving me these motivational books -- "They Bought the Farm, Now Sell Them the Cows"... stuff like that.

[Looking at the door to his office.]
Manuel Calavera: Wasn't too long ago the name on that door was "Supply Closet."

Endgame at Hector's greenhouse on the hill (after he shoots you and you use the liquid nitro on the wound.) If you walk up around the side instead of shooting the tank right away you'll have a pointless shootout with Hector. You'll hear that line as one of Manny's taunts if you stick at it.

"I think we should team up. Be partners."
"Oh, Manny, I couldn't. I'd be too intimidated to work with a man like you."
"Oh, come on, Domino...I've seen your wife."

Dom and Manny in Dom's Office.

LOL...

There are some lines that are not included in the final game. One of them is this:

MANNY: You'd think that Sal, with all his conspiracy theories, would have told me there were alligators in the sewers.

Also


Membrillo
An engraved ring... a belt buckle with somebody's name on it...

Manny
He, he, he, he, who would wear a belt buckle with their...

Manny
Oh


and


Manny
Glottis, cover your ears!

*ship is ripped in half by Anchor*

Glottis
What was that?

Manny
The dotted line, buddy.


AND finally, random goodness!



Pugsy
I'll bite you, I swear to God.




Manny
That gesture might confuse her.


Manny
It confuses me.





Bibi
..waaaa-hoo-hoo...


Manny
You know, I really do want to help.


Pugsy
Then why don't you?


Manny
My butt's too big to sit on one of those little perches.


Bibi
Ahhhhm! I'm going to tell Meche you said that word to us.







Manny
Now all we have to do is wait for the room to fill up and we'll just
float on out of here!

*A while later...*

Manny
Well, this is disappointing.



Manny
I can't talk about my underground gig, or I'd put the whole scene in dangerville.

What is that horrible squeaking noise you're making?

Manny
New shoes.


Manny
Hector's machine will squish the people into the poor.

Manny[Pulling the slot lever]
Hmm... it works without money.

Manny[Gets three Hector's head-slots]
Hey! Maybe he isn't that bad!


[Manny takes out a mini-pick-ax from his pocket]
Domino
Please put that...
That...

I'm making come-back in Lucasforums!

"Domino's door is locked! Probably scared if I steal one of his files. Not a bad idea, actually."

- Manuel Calavera

Manny:- "Glottis, I'll go up and find Meche!"
Glottis:- "What if that octopus comes back?"
- "Just poke in his eyes and steal his sub!"
- "Heh! Stupid octopus..."

"That monster upstairs is running me ragged!"

- Raoul

Did you ever notice that Glottis in High Rollers lounge is calling on Raoul the waiter. He is so humoristic when he's drunk!

Everything in this game is hilarious, but I never actually laughed at anything. It was more like "Wow, that is so funny!".

However, I did chuckle when Domino got killed in the coral crusher. Something in it was just so... funny. Later on I missed him, though.

After climbing the rope at the DOD:
"Those are ugly ties. I can't believe I climbed up that thing!"
-Manny

In Domino's office:
"He doesn't even hide his booze in his cabinet. What kind of salesman is he?!"
-Manny

In the bottom of the sea of Lament:
"That light of mine is made by a coral."
"Yes, I remember I had that one too. It made a good hook of it."
- Chepito and Manny

In Don's office:
"Memo from the desk of Don Copal: Hey! Work orders are assigned by my office, and are not exchangeable among salesmen! Swapping, selling, and especially STEALING work orders will result in SEVERE disciplinary action."
- Manny

Okay, where can I start, this game has various funny moments however, since I haven't used my PC and GF on a while now, I can't think of them all. :)
Most of the things I thought funny have already been posted.
Also, my copy of the game is in Spanish, so I'm not adding to the list the coversations I thought were funny.

You know, Manny always says something funny when you're choosing to pick something person or impossible things.

Here are some experimental samples:
1. Object: The moon in Rubacava port.
Manny's quote: "Don't have that kind of equipment."

2. Eva in LSA HQ, year 4.
"Not in front of Meche."

3. The huge crane vehicle in the edge of the world.
"Oh, I would... But my back!" :D

4. I may not be so sure about this. But anyway, the hamburger in the land of the living.
"I can't reap hamburgers. Cows are whole other bureau.":p
Meaning that they belong to another section than the humans, of course.

Find out more by trying it, and send some more here!;)

Do the car in the endgame: "I left my tow truck in my other pants."

"You know, we could die, right here, in this safe..."
"Nice line, but we're already dead, remember?"
"Right."

Not sure if this was said though but when you bring out your mini hammer in part 3 by Domino.
Domino-"Put that... that....that hahahahahahaha, ok you can take out the tiny hammer."(I think that's the correct quote) and I also laughed when....
Manny-"Coming home soon"(Too Glottis when he is drunk at the High Rollers Lounge in Part 2). Glottis-"What did you say little kitty, don't talk little kitty... JUST RUN BABY!!!" I laughed so hard (The End)

Definately keep this thread alive!
when Manny is trying to be funny at the cafй... "So what is up with airplane food anyway? I mean, it's so small, and... not that good."

Hehehe, yeah, this bit is great - it just falls so short of Manny's usually sharp tongue (or whatever he uses instead).
While we're at the Blue Casket, pretty much every line of Manny's poetry makes me chuckle as well. His delivery is just so random when trying to appear 'edgy', and the best part is, he's doing it on purpose. Love it =)

One laugh-out-loud part for me is when Glottis is totally hammered at the races. The music's so cool and swingin', and he's up there yelling at the cats... "YOU GOT IT!" What the hell!? xD

GF's humour is generally more reserved though, and this gives it a great deal more charm. Someone mentioned this quote before, when Manny's sort of interrogating Meche early on:

"Ever cheated on your husband?"
"Mr. Calavera, there's no ring on my finger..."
"... There's no skin on it either."

With Meche being all coy and innocent, the timing of Manny's blunt comeback is just superb. Such a perfect script overall ^_^
