Dialogue

edit
Warren: Have you seen my baseball? Have you seen my baseball?
Student: Hey, buddy! I think I know where your ball is!
Warren: You seen my baseball?
Student: Yeah, you see that girl over there? She's got it. Only she doesn't call it a baseball, she's got another name for it. [Whispers in Warren's ear]
Warren: [Walks up to a couple kissing] Have you seen my...wiener?
Girl: What?!
Warren: Have you seen my wiener?
Boyfriend: What the hell did you just say, buddy?!
Warren: Wiener...
Boyfriend: Get your hand off my car, I'm gonna fuckin' kick your ass!

[When Ted gets his genitals stuck in his zipper]
Charlie: Is it the frank or the beans?
Ted: I don't know. Both, I guess.
Warren: [from outside] Franks and Beans! Franks and Beans!
...
Charlie: Oh man! How'd you get the beans above the frank?

Mary: I want a guy who can play 36 holes of golf and still have enough energy to take Warren and me to a baseball game and eat hot dogs. I'm talking sausage hot dogs and beer, not lite beer, but beer. That's my ad, print it up.
Brenda: Hmm...a fatty who likes golf and beer. Gee, Mary, where are you gonna find a gem like that?

Pat: [after telling Mary that he's an architect] Really, it's only a side thing for my true passion.
Mary: And what's that?
Pat: I work with retards.
Mary: Isn't that a little politically incorrect?
Pat: Yeah, maybe, but hell, no one's gonna tell me who I can and can't work with, right?

Ted: Look, I didn't solicit any sex, okay? This is a huge misunderstanding. I was really going out to pee, I was walking to the bushes, I tripped over this guy - and suddenly all those cops and their helicopters...
Detective Stabler: Ted, Ted, it's okay, we believe you. [about the dead body in the trunk] The problem is we found your friend in the car.
Ted: [smiles] Oh, the hitchhiker? That's what this is about, the hitchhiker? Oh, oh, great. This is my luck. I get caught for everything.
Detective Krevoy: [pats Ted's shoulder] So...you admit it?
Ted: Ah, yeah, guilty as charged. Look, I know you guys got a job to do, alright? And I'm really sorry. I did it, I admit it. You know, the guy even told me, the hitchhiker told me it was illegal.
Detective Krevoy: Well, uh, can you tell us his name?
Ted: Ah...no, I didn't catch it. Can we cut to the chase? I mean, am I like in a lot of trouble here?
Detective Stabler: [nods] First tell us why you did it.
Ted: Why I did it? Ah...I don't know. Boredom? The guy turned to be a blubber mouth who just would not shut up.
Detective Krevoy: [trying to control himself] Ted, this wasn't your first time, was it?
Ted: No.
Detective Krevoy: How many are we talking here?
Ted: [confused] Hitchhikers? My whole life? Ah... I don't know - twenty-five, fifty... I mean, who keeps track? Hey, you know, I know this is the Bible Belt and everything, but where I come from, this is not that big deal, I mean...
Detective Krevoy: You son of a bitch! You're gonna fry! [slams Ted's head against the desk]
Detective Stabler: Take it easy! Calm down! Are you okay?
Ted: [to Krevoy] What the hell is wrong with you?

Ted: Do you think maybe you wanna maybe, I don't know, go out to dinner? You know, catch up on old times?
Mary: Didn't we just do that?
Ted: Oh, uh...
Mary: I'm fucking with you, Ted!

Dom: You choke the chicken before any big date, don't you? Tell me you spank the monkey before any big date. Oh my God, he doesn't flog the dolphin before a big date. Are you crazy? That's like going out there with a loaded gun! Of course that's why you're nervous. Oh my dear friend, please sit, please. Look, um, after you've had sex with a girl, and you're lying in bed with her, are you nervous? No, you're not, why?
Ted: 'Cause I'm tired...
Dom: Wrong! It's 'cause you ain't got the baby batter on the brain anymore! Jesus, that stuff will fuck your head up! Look, the most honest moment in a man's life are the few minutes after he's blown his load - now that is a medical fact. And the reason for it is that you're no longer trying to get laid, you're actually...you're thinking like a girl, and girls love that.

Mary: Ted? Did you mean what you said back there?
Ted: [Tearfully] Uh huh. I just want you to be happy, Mary.
Mary: But I'd be happiest with you.
Ted: You're fucking with me, right?
[Shakes her head, while smiling]
Ted: What about Brett Fahvra...?
Mary: What did I tell you the first time we met? I'm a Niners fan!
[They kiss]
