• Sergeant : [31:00]  I do not know what this world is coming to. See that man over there. We arrested him for mopery.

  Booger : What's mopery?

  Sergeant : Mopery is exposing yourself to a blind person. I am sorry about your window, fellas, but that's out of our jurisdiction. This sounds more like a fraternity prank. But there's only one organization that can handle such matters.

  Gibert : What is that?

  Sergeant : [disdainfully]  The Greek Council.

• [Lewis and Gilbert are discussing Gilbert's girlfriend, innocently] 

  Booger : Big deal! Did you get in her pants?

  Gibert : She's not that kind of girl, Booger.

  Booger : Why? Does she have a penis?

• Gibert : I just wanted to say that I'm a nerd, and I'm here tonight to stand up for the rights of other nerds. I mean uh, all our lives we've been laughed at and made to feel inferior. And tonight, those bastards, they trashed our house. Why? Cause we're smart? Cause we look different? Well, we're not. I'm a nerd, and uh, I'm pretty proud of it.

  Lewis : Hi, Gilbert. I'm a nerd too. I just found that out tonight. We have news for the beautiful people. There's a lot more of us than there are of you. I know there's alumni here tonight. When you went to Adams you might've been called a spazz, or a dork, or a geek. Any of you that have ever felt stepped on, left out, picked on, put down, whether you think you're a nerd or not, why don't you just come down here and join us. Okay? Come on.

  Gibert : Just join us cause uh, no-one's gonna really be free until nerd persecution ends.

• Lewis : Didn't I tell you we would find a nice place?

  Gibert : Yes, this is way better than the dorm.

  [Brick is hurled through the window] 

  Booger : What was that?

  Gibert : It says: "Nerds get out!"

  Takashi : What is a nerd?

  Gibert : *We* are.

• Lewis : [0:03:23]  This is college. Remember, 6,127 students at Adams, 58% of which are girls.

  Gibert : So?

  Lewis : That's 7,107.32 boobs.

  Mr. Skolnick : You college guys are all alike. All you care about is getting laid. I wish I was going with you.

• Lewis : [10:40]  It'll help with the women, too.

  Gibert : Women?

  Lewis : Yeah! Let's say one of us is up here with a woman, this will be our early warning device so we don't walk in on each other.

  Gibert : We're allowed to have girls in our dorm room?

  Lewis : Not girls, women. We're college men, now.

• Gibert : Working with a computer's great. I mean, it's godlike, in a way, cause you can have complete control.

• Gibert : Hey, take it easy. The computer's your friend.

  Judy : I wasn't meant to interface with a machine.

  Gibert : Well, you're just beginning. Relax.

  Judy : It's no use. It's inhuman.

  Gibert : It's not inhuman. Only humans can be inhuman.
