Three Stooges
Now every hardcore Stooges fan has gotten into a conversation with someone who claims to be a big stooges fan. Sure they can recite “nyuk, nyuk, nyuk” and “why soitenly”, but when you throw a line at them like “did he say jail ? No Yale, I got a brother there, has two heads, they have him in a bottle” well that is when they look at you like you have two heads.
This blog is about all those great Stooges lines that rarely get quoted. The kinds of lines you recite to a friend who is as big a fan as you are and not only knows it but throws one back at you. Now these don’t have to be all one liners. They can be exchanges between Moe, Larry, Curly and Shemp or between one of the Stooges and another character. I’ll start it off with a few.
Curly singing – “She was bred in old Kentucky but she is just a crumb up here”.
Moe selling Bright-O – “If you have a knicknack with a nick in it, we’ll knock the nick outta the knicknack with Brighto!”.
Curly shaving ice – “Were you wearing a pink bow tie ? No, well here is your lip”.
Curly “Oh, see the deer. Has the deer a little doe?”
Moe – “Ya, two bucks”. ( smack )
Prospective employer – “What would you do if you held the Queen alone ?”
Larry – “That all depends on when the King was expected home ?
Prospective employer – “Oh a bridge expert” !
Lady with a pie stuck on the ceiling above her – “Young man, you act as tho the sword of Damocles is hanging over your head”.
Moe – “Lady you must be physic”.
Curly – “I grow on people” !
Moe – “So do warts”.
Bailiff – “Drop the vernacular”
Curly – “Thats not a vernacular, thats a derby”
And they go on and on. Please blog in with your favorites.
Gold! Gold! We want Gold! Zooooot!

Courtroom scene……the Prosecutor loses his toupe, it lands on Larry (?)

Larry: Look at that, ya shot 5 holes in a divot!
The Three Stooges are the best
I used to watch the Three Stooges everyday after school. My Mom would come in the room and say ”Why are you watching those idiots, don’t you have homework” ? But every once in a while she would pause and watch out of the corner of her eye and I could tell she was holding back a chuckle. They are a riot.
Here is a line I love. The guys are being chased by a zombie.
Larry I think or maybe Shemp. “MMMMMMMMMMOE GGGGGGGGGGOON”
Moe not seeing the zombie behind him. “You sound like you could use some bicarbonate”.
Thanks for the blog, brought back some memories.
what was the name of the spot that they did where they were being chased by the Egyptians and the guards stopped and asked the bull ” hail oh wise oracle which way did those naves go, the bull said they went that way and that ain’t no bull
enchanted, enlightened, embalmed.

I say Jasper, is that the sun up there?
Oh, I don’t know, I’m a stranger around these parts.
Curly shaving ice – “Were you wearing a pink bow tie ? No, well here is your lip”. Does anyone remember which epsisode (title) this was from? Thanks.
“I was trying to think but nothing happens.” Curly
Larry, upon finding coins in an old can, “Oh, canned coin.”
Does anyone remember what episode they sang the “Alphabet Song.” B A Bay, B O bo, B I bicky side, etc.
Desk Clerk: Are you gentlemen members of the press?
Curly: I used to be! But I didn’t do any pressing…I went through the pockets, sort of a dry cleaning nyuk nyuk nyuk!
Moe – “How much do you charge to haunt a house?”
Larry – “How many rooms?”
Moe to Curly I think
