Funny Lines

Wondering what line or lines everyone found funny in this movie. There were so many that I found funny. But one in particular makes me laugh everytime I see it.
It happens when Jake's in-laws are having dinner at their house. The father-in-law is pressuring them about having kids and the mother-in-law starts telling the story of Christy's difficult birth as an example on why she is all for them waiting. Her husband looks at her and says "Well, You're alright now....so why dwell on it?"
That is a phrase my family and I use all the time now, especially when someone is going on and on about something that happened to them. It never fails to make us all laugh.

The scene where they're having dinner and Jake dropps the steak on the ground. The father asks " Wow, Now tell me Jake, How do u manage to get one side flamebroiled and the other side blood raw? What is this?, Is this grass (scrapping it off with his fork)...its so funny.

Agree about the line about the barbeque - I think of it every time my husband cooks on the grill.

Also, when she cooks up all the fish when they are first married and she says "grouper, it's grouper" - for some reason, I think that's hilarious, her delivery is perfect and I think of it every time I cook something that I think my husband will like but it doesn't come out very good but I'm still irritated that he doesn't like it.
