"BEGONE, FOUL CREATURES!"

That's the cleric cohort turning undead. It must be said loudly enough to startle the other players.
 

"Oh, this [insert event] is going badly. Quick Wes, pull out the pdf's!"

Had a player in the group that had all sorts of rule books with odd extra rules to buff up his paladin when things got rough. Saved our bacon more than once, but like that would stop us from taunting him.
 

Several that can't be quoted due to language.... ;)

"Been there, done that"-- my ranger, Keldaren, to Krag the dwarven fighter talking about death. Keldaren's died once (at that point) and Krag has had a deathwish since Day One.
 

"If you make my life any more difficult I'll sing at you. Really." a character who has learned many stupendously annoying gnomish songs like '99 bottles of ale on the wall', 'a hole in the bottom of the sea', and 'fido'

"Bugger it!" whenever the character has to shoot/kill/blast anything big and nasty. (she has yet to blast anything. shoot yes, blast no...)

"99 bottles of ale on the wall... 99 bottles ale on the wall. Take one down, pass it around... 98 bottles of ale on the wall." and she can keep this up indefinently, because elves have no real sense of time as we know it.
 

Ok, I've got some pretty debased ones.
Remember that little rapper Ludacris? well, he had an album called Word of Mouf a couple years back and every session...
PLAYER ONE "Word of Mouf." (extends fist)
PLAYER TWO "Word of Mouf." (knocks knuckles with player one.)

Also, my wierdo brother does a Dr. Phil impression every session, and does a wierd combat dance when a fight starts.
You probably don't want to, but if you're looking to get wierded out check out http://www.geocities.com/doppelgangerstudios/hlpg.html for some oddball quotes.
 

These get thrown around constantly:

(dramatically) "I detect... no evil here!" -- quoted from a paladin NPC. Sometimes we modify it (DM: "You're in the dragon cave. Roll a listen." Player: "5." DM: "You don't think you hear anything." Player: "I detect... no dragon here!")

(dramatically) "I have dire news!" -- quoted from my fighter, upon seeing his dead cohort's father. It is often quoted to mean, "I have dire gnus", so I am thankful that gnus are not statted anywhere in the manuals.

"For great justice!" -- my paladin. Party mates (who invariably hate anything any of my characters do more than once) often cry out "for no great justice" or "for great injustice" or, if they particularly hate me that night, "for great relish (and superlative mustard)".

"What's in the box?" -- quoted from the movie Seven. Don't ask me why we quote this, but any time there's a box, we gotta ask...
 

I had a dwarven fighter/rogue that was very curmudgeon ( I know, original) and very anti-heronamed Scratch. He had two favorite sayings usually aimed at the party Paladin and cleric.

"You can't fix stupid"

and

"They don't sell insurance for stuff like that".
 

One slightly unhinged player has as his pre-fight quote "I like your ears!"

My quote when challenged by players "You sense the presence of the GM's lightning bolt." or "What's this screen say? That's right, Throne of GOD!" I usually use the GM's lightning bolt one.

On quote heard at my table that had us all in hysterics involved one PC being from the desert, and thus hating the tropics and ocean travel
Desert Guy: "Alright, I'll go, but its gotta be a big boat. One that DOESN'T move other than when it goes forward."
Lunatic: "That's called an island."
 

The most common quote, uttered once by an undead creature and now said whenever the undead are present by at least one player- "All flesh must be eaten!"

Not so much a quote as a gesture- whenever an NPC is a little too nice to them, or otherwise suspicious, the players will turn their arms facing out and wiggle their fingers, because they think it might be a disguised rakshasa (backwards hands and all that).

Demiurge out.
