Bob’s Burgers: 10 Funniest Quotes You Probably Missed

Known for its snappy one-liners and ridiculous yet wholesome, family messages, Fox’s Bob’s Burgers explores the hectic and hilarious lives of the Belcher family.

Whether Linda is telling Bob that she wants to be cremated and have her ashes thrown in Tom Selleck’s face, or Bob is calmly informing his family that he loves them but that they are “all terrible,” the show is full of memorable and quotable lines. But some are easier to miss than others! Take a look at 10 of the funniest, underrated quotes from Bob’s Burgers that you might have missed the first time around.

10 “I Like To Play With A Yo-Yo, So Something Comes Back To Me.”

A lonely, divorced handyman and frequent customer of Bob’s Burgers, Teddy is the king of sad but hilarious quotes.

In “My Fuzzy Valentine,” Linda decides to play cupid and host a speed dating event at the restaurant, but things quickly spiral out of control when the singles decide to get to know each other by confessing dark, depressing secrets, including Teddy’s comment about why he owns a yo-yo.

9 “Camera, Take The Day Off! I Added Ten Pounds To Myself!”

Desperate for a new minivan, the Belchers become contestants on the game show Family Fracas, and surprisingly, they’re really good at it!

Gene delivers this gem at the beginning of their first show when the host asks them to introduce themselves. As always, the boisterous, middle child has something quirky and confident to say.

8 “She’ll Wear Down Your Self Esteem Over A Period Of Years”

The Belcher siblings may be the best of friends, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t well aware of each other’s flaws. Season 3’s premiere centers around conflict with Louise’s bully and nemesis – Logan Bush.

When he steals her beloved bunny ears, she’s determined to get them back at all costs, prompting Tina to hilariously warn him what happens when people get on her little sister’s bad side.

7 “He Was Just Sitting There On Someone’s Porch.”

If there is one consistent thing in the chaos that is Aunt Gayle’s life, it’s her love of cats.

Though she’s mentioned that she’s adopted some of her many kitties from an animal shelter (which refuse to give her any more), in “Turkey In A Can,”, she admits that she sometimes rescues “abandoned” cats that she finds on porches, lounging in the sun! Yeah, she definitely stole that cat.

6 “And I Am Kate Bush.”

Stuck on a boring field trip, Louise and Regular-Sized Rudy sneak off to explore an off-limits part of the museum on their own in “Carpe Museum.”

It’s such a “kid” thing to do – to hide behind a bush and pretend to be a plant named “Leafy Greenbriar” to not get caught, but what makes this moment so funny is Rudy’s deadpan delivery of his own plant persona – the name of a real-life musician.

5 “Because I Have Sleep Apnea … And Sleep Fartnea.”

After the town businesses decide to go on a rent strike due to Mr. Fischoeder’s greedy rent hike, the Belchers finds themselves in the middle of a vicious water balloon fight instigated by Calvin Fischoeder himself.

The kids take shelter in Felix’s treehouse and use it to hatch their next plan of attack. Apparently, Calvin makes Felix live there due to his … digestive issues.

4 “We Have An Aunt Flo? She’s Missed All My Birthdays!”

Known for his loud personality and quirky humor, Gene always has something to say – even if it’s ridiculous or inappropriate.

In the season 6 episode “The Hormone-iums,” Tina finally gets her shot as soloist in her school’s teen health singing club, but when Linda asks her if they’ll be singing about “changing bodies or Aunt Flo,” Gene mistakenly thinks she’s talking about an actual person.

3 “Oh No, You Must Be Bad At Sex. Same Boat! Keep Tryin’!”

Feeling under-appreciated and needing extra money to support the family, Linda gets a job at the local grocery store and immediately gets the recognition that she wants.

Surprised, she jokes that she is never complimented like this at her other job, even though she’s “sleeping with the boss.” Employee Mitch hilariously commiserates, saying she must be bad at sex, but that they should both “keep trying.”

2 “No Matter What I Say, Stop Me When I’ve Had Sixteen.”

One of the things that makes Bob’s Burgers so fantastic is how much the Belchers feel like a real family. Despite the kids’ hijinks, Bob’s burger puns, and the craziness of their day-to-day lives at the restaurant, they all feel like real people.

Linda is especially relatable, being open about her love of wine and snack foods. Who can’t relate to “stop me when I’ve had sixteen”?

1 “He May Not Be A Sugar Daddy, But He’s A Daddy, Sugar.”

In “House Of 1000 Bounces,” the kids try to find a way to steal another birthday party’s bounce house for themselves when the company accidentally delivers the last one to the wrong party.

Eager to get back at his bratty cousin, Sasha agrees to play the distraction and attempts to set up his aunt with Rudy’s awkward single father, with his clever and infallible logic, “He may not be a sugar daddy, but he’s a daddy, sugar.”
