Nerdy/ Geeky sayings
Have you ever heard or even made up your own nerdy/geeky sayings or phrases? Ones that you really want on a t-shirt or to sew and put up on the wall?
"No * Sherlock"
"oh well, Orson Welles"
"I have a bad feeling about this" (front of t-shirt, then on back Han in carbonite)
Please no offensive ones.

"I can't kill the lawyers, I don't have the orbital mind-control lasers!" is one that has been in my crowd for a long time now after a truly epic card game.

Re: Nerdy/ Geeky sayings
I just got my 5 & 8 year old caught up on Star Wars. I figured I better get them the whole picture before the new movies come out since they've been exposed to a couple episodes of Clone Wars and Lego Star Wars.
(Of course I had to show it to them in the official geek order: Episode IV ANH, Episode V ESB, - Episodes I-III as a flashback, then Episode VI ROTJ.)
Anyway, now I've been able to bust out all the great Yoda quotes on them.
When they won't eat their vegetables: "Fear is the path to the Dark Side."
"Patience you must have, my young padawan."
"Do, or do not. There is no try."
...and my favorite, when they can't find a shoe or something else equally obvious.
"Lost a planet Master Obi-Wan has. How embarrassing."

Re: Nerdy/ Geeky sayings
I don't know if this counts, but my daughter runs hot and cold for soccer.
So I've gotten to asking her: "Daisy picker or warrior?"
Meaning is she going to stand around the field and look like she is picking daisies, or is she going to go out there and fight for the ball.
Believe it or not, since I've started quantifying it like that she's chosen to be a warrior a lot more often than a daisy picker.

“Five card stud, nothing wild. And the sky’s the limit." From the last ST:TNG episode. Though it makes me tear up...
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer." -Dune
"So say we all." -BSG
“You were fantastic, absolutely fantastic! And you know what? So was I.” — Ninth Doctor
"We can't giggle; it's a crime scene." -BBC Sherlock
I'm sure there's more, but that's all I can brain at the moment.
