Ron Burgundy > Your Life

"I love scotch. Scotchy, scotch, scotch. Here it goes down, down into my belly..." 

So I was watching Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy earlier, and I forgot how epic the movie was. Every other piece of dialogue was memorable and quotable. Below are easily my top 5 moments from Anchorman.

• Ron Burgundy: I don't know how to put this but I'm kind of a big deal.
  Veronica Corningstone: Really.
  Ron Burgundy: People know me.
  Veronica Corningstone: Well, I'm very happy for you.
  Ron Burgundy: I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

• Ron Burgundy: Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Diego, which of course in German means a whale's vagina.
  Veronica Corningstone: No, there's no way that's correct.
  Ron Burgundy: I'm sorry, I was trying to impress you. I don't know what it means. I'll be honest, I don't think anyone knows what it means anymore. Scholars maintain that the translation was lost hundreds of years ago.
  Veronica Corningstone: Doesn't it mean Saint Diego?
  Ron Burgundy: No. No.
  Veronica Corningstone: No, that's - that's what it means. Really.
  Ron Burgundy: Agree to disagree

  Ron Burgundy: Go fuck yourself San Diego.

  Garth Holliday: You were my hero Ron! Why'd you have to say that? You come out with stink like that.
  [Starts to cry]
  Garth Holliday: Poop. You poopmouth, with poop out of your mouth!
  Ron Burgundy: Garth, if I would give you some money out of my wallet, would that ease the pain?

• Ron Burgundy: Boy, that escalated quickly... I mean, that really got out of hand fast.
  Champ Kind: It jumped up a notch.
  Ron Burgundy: It did, didn't it?
  Brick Tamland: Yeah, I stabbed a man in the heart.
  Ron Burgundy: I saw that. Brick killed a guy. Did you throw a trident?
  Brick Tamland: Yeah, there were horses, and a man on fire, and I killed a guy with a trident.
  Ron Burgundy: Brick, I've been meaning to talk to you about that. You should find yourself a safehouse or a relative close by. Lay low for a while, because you're probably wanted for murder.
