220...221 Whatever It takes


To this day, I use that line to describe a situation that I know nothing about.

I also like the scene when he gets shot. What did you use a 38? 38 39 whatever it takes lol

When people reply to posts do they bother reading previous replies?!

I think they don't.

I say it as a joke too. The strange thing is that Jack is supposed to be an engineer and no engineer would ever say something like that.

I'm another one who says the line all the time! Once or twice I've used it online and had somebody pick up on it, which is always fun.

And you know, jup06, that never occurred to me! Yeah, Jack really should know better, shouldn't he? Lol.

Same here, and it makes me chuckle every time I use it. I even got my friends using it too.

I still use this line 33 years later. I just alter the numbers to match whatever topic I am talking about. Funny, funny line.


My memory foam pillow says it can't remember my face. I can tell its lying.

So does my father, he loves this movie because it's reminded him of the few times he was laid off in the past. He'll say that line at least a few times per year still. Lol

I know this is an old IMDb post, but I have a coworker that I use this line with to mock those in our workplace that clearly don't know what they're talking about.
