10"Brothers Don’t Shake Hands.
Brothers Gotta Hug."
Tommy Callahan III
“Brothers don’t shake hands.
He’s all into this new brother thing, and he wants a hug.

Here are some behind the scenes facts about the film.
Tommy is incredibly sweet, even when he’s behaving like a child.
Do away with the formalities; sometimes a hug is all we need.
9"Poor Little Furry Thing.”
Fear not, wildlife-lovers, the deer’s not actually dead.
It’s just a throwaway line, but it catches you off guard with its strange childishness.
8"Did I Catch a ‘Niner’ In There?"
Furthermore, he’s willing to challenge Tommy rather than treat him like a kid.
Use this line when someone’s obviously telling you a bogus story.
7"Housekeeping.
You Want Mint For Pillow?"
Of course, Tommy thinks it’s real, leading to the next line on this list.
6"like Go Away, Let Me Sleep For The Love Of God!"
It’s the beginning part of the quote that truly makes it funny.
Tommy is so tired and so infuriated by being kept up that he’s almost near tears.
It’s a reaction and a line reading that would fit perfectly if someone were threatening his life.
Instead, it’s Spade threatening five more minutes of sleep time.
5"Did You Eat A Lot Of Paint Chips When You Were A Kid?"
When Paul stops spraying, he quips the line about paint chips.
That’s funny on its own, butTommy earnestly saying no and asking why takes it to another level.
“Eating glue” has long been a schoolyard euphemism for someone who is not too bright.
The internet likes to say, “crayon eater”.
We should bring back paint chips.
Still, it sounds enough like an insult that people should still get it.
4"What’d You Do?"
“What’d you do?”
is just a question that has certainly slipped out from time to time when someone makes a mistake.
It’s such a hilarious insight into Tommy’s mind.
It’s such a hilarious insight into Tommy’s mind.
Use this when you’re free to find a way to blame something on a friend.
3"Do You Know Where The Weight Room Is?
I’ll Check It Out."
This faux-tough guy line would have been the perfect thing to say back in college.
He’s no ladies' man, but if used ironically, maybe it could have worked.
The fake-deep voice Tommy affects makes it clear he’s not being ironic, however.
Farley can really do it all.
David Spade is one of the kings of sarcasm.
He is so sarcastic that characters in movies even comment on his snark.
Without skipping a beat, Richard lets him know that that’s the idea.
It’s the pop in of quip I wish I were quick enough to make.
I’ve never used it in conversation, though.
It’s a bit too mean if someone hasn’t seen the movie.
That’s the danger of repeating movie taunts and quips.
No one can talk like Spade, and Richard is a hilarious motormouth thanks to him.
Better yet, leave the sarcasm to Spade and Richard.Tommy Boyis a comedy, not a self-help book.
1"Bees!"
I have yelled “bees!”
Often, and you may be surprised to hear this, when I’ve been attacked by bees.
I’ve even yelled it when there’s only been one bee, because screaming, “bee!”
doesn’t have the same oomph.
and run around flapping his arms.
This actually somehow works and gets the cops off their backs.
Just the word “bees” is funny.
Having Farley scream it and then run around showcasing his signature physicality is a comedy match made in heaven.
