Kuririn was telling Piccolo that Piccolo's plan was only "half-baked" (I'm tempted to say it was about the whole teaching Trunks and Goten fusion thing.) and Piccolo responds with that line.

With no context, it gives me the mental image of Piccolo making cookies or something.

Ah, thanks. I was thinking sometime during the Buu saga. *pictures Piccolo in a "kiss the cook" apron*

It was actually during the Garlic Jr. saga, I think.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

It was definately funny. I still say to this day, guys who didn't like it know they would've laughed at it in a Bugs Bunny cartoon.

Also when Trunks and Goten are relieving themselves:

Trunks: I can write my name.

Goten: Me too.

Together: T-R-U-...

Trunks: Hey, write your own name!

Aha, I actually got a laugh out of the lines vegeta said during his fight with android 19. xD

"My, my... What do we have here?.. Oh yes.... the ULTIMATE tub of lard, bucket of bolts!"

"I think you have an oil leak...what a bad deal!.. such a fragile unit."

"I only wish there was a junkyard nearby so we could give him a proper burial, ehahaha..."

Don't forget what he said to Android 18: "Maybe when I destroy you, I can turn you into something more practical, like a drier or a toaster!"
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?

Now that I think about it, you might be right about that. I think it's when Piccolo is encouraging Gohan to let the barrier down and attack Garlic Jr.?

There. Now we have all three meme lines out of the way they can be forgotten.

"Hey, I know you, you're hokey pokey"
Oh, you think the Grand Tour is your ally, you merely stepped into the Grand Tour. I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn’t see the Super until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding!

That's where you're wrong. DBZ memes will never be forgotten.

Can we at least leave them out of the forums?

I think the original was like this. ((This is from memory))

Freeza: "Oh yes, why don't I give you a great service?"
Goku: "Great service?!"
Freeza: "I won't use my hands. How's that?"

And FUNimation's was changed to:

Freeza: "Oh, I know! I'll fight without using my hands! How's that for a deal?"
Goku: "It's your call."
Freeza: "Fine then. This way I won't break a nail!"

Wasn't that in the manga as well?

^ Yeah, I'm pretty sure that line's in the manga too. Around the time when they are summoning Porunga on Earth to wish back Kuririn, etc.

And when Trunks and Kuririn are looking through the plans for the Artifical Humans in Gero's laboratory, in the Funi dub Trunks states "Nah, just some crazy plans for a gas-powered toaster oven." This has always made me laugh, just for the sheer randomness of it.

But still, someone gets paid for writing this??!!

Android 13 to Trunks
"Don't you lecture me boy, with that $30 haircut!"

Vegeta rather bluntly trying to convince the people of Earth to help raise energy for the Spirit Bomb to defeat Kid Buu
"People of Earth.... Raise your hands right now or you're all going to DIE!!"

Vegeta to Bulma after she forced him to take a shower, upon his return to Earth just before King Cold and Freeza arrive.
"These garments that you left...are they for a man or a woman?! They're PINK!!! This is RIDICULOUS!!I'm a WARRIOR, not a variety of FLOWER!!!

Piccolo to a wounded Nail, as he is finally convinced that the two of them would be wise to fuse together.
"Alright, You're on...You can stay until we beat Freeza. After that, I'm gonna charge you rent, you got that?!"

Piccolo to himself as little Gohan rampages around in his Oozaru form after seeing the moon for the first time while training with Piccolo.
"Whoa!! What an Awful, Awesome Power!! Even his Breath is a Weapon!!"

Krillin to the Namek Dragon Balls while attempting to summon the Dragon
"I summon up the Dragon...I command you now! Hear my howl...to make my wish COME TRUE!!"

Piccolo to Goten and Trunks after he woke them up to do more training
"Breakfast?!?! You're havin' the FUSION TECHNIQUE for BREAKFAST!!!"

Hercule to Dende as he's ready to attack Buu
"Don't you worry about me! I'm a master of Martial Arts and I'm also packin' some serious
heat! And as soon as Majin Buu pops his head outta that hole, he'll be eatin' a bullet burrito!!"

I know. Some of the FUNi dub lines make me laugh, but at the same time they make me facepalm with sheer embarrassment for the staff who thought up this shit.
