there's so many but im watching right now and not really a quote but when he started singing opera to that old lady, and then she pats his hand and he laughs and all shyly says "she touched me" i almost died laughing
and also love the geo ducks one where he says "is that a geo duck in your pocket or are you just happy sashimi?"
LOVE mike rowe

I liked the organ pipe cleaning one when he was telling the repairman about how he lowered his voice to a whisper when handling the small, delicate pipes and then he picked up one of the big ones and said, "but when you have this son of a b**tch you talk normally". I know that isn't the exact quote, but I thought it was hilariously funny. I just wish this show would have been on when we moved 189 dead bodies from our old mausoleum to the new one at our cemetery.
I still think when he makes fun of the charcoal worker for his use of the phrase "right-quick" i would have done that too. "He's gonna turn it on right quick."
not really a quote, but i love when mike rowe cant understand someone because of a thick accent and he will actually say "um.. WHAT!? theres a CAT in there??"
most people just nod and smile but i love how mike calls people on it XD

I love the one from the episode where he helps clean up the trash in the gutter. Mike: This is not your mother's vacuum. It'll suck the hitch off a Buick.
I think it's funny when he makes little references every once in a while to his... uh... size... If ya know what i mean. Like the time he was walking through the rows of posters of himself that had been hung up to dry, and he says something about "greased up, lubricated, and hung... Well hung." I just thought that was great. I laughed for a good long while about it, and then at random times through the next few days the saying would pop in my head and i'd laugh some more!Also when people are talking about "micro-" anything and he pops an "i'm mike rowe!" joke it always gets me. Did anyone catch the one he missed this past week when the cowpot guy said something about "micro-farts"? I almost peed myself. It wouldve been great if mike had caught that one lmao.My God! It's the mummy from Canada! -Ryan Stiles
hahaha, i totally agree with you on the alpaca one. That was so hilarious. The one with the geoducks and the one where they were in TN cutting down trees and using mules were the funniest ones. "She could kick me into next month, couldn't she?"

I loved the one where he was at the alpaca farm and the two alpacas were beginning to mate. The guy from the farm told Mike he had to make sure the female alpaca's tail was out of the way so he reaches between them then jumps away and says, "That wasn't a tail".
Mike is such a great host, I just adore him.

From the wine making episode where he was sorting the cows. Mike was telling the guy "you're a dirty guy" and the buy goes "you are too Dave" then Mike says "call me Mike". that's hilarious.
And the feeling that i'm falling further in love makes me shiver but in a good way
My favorite quote of his is from the episode where he helps build a house made of animal dung and says "A chunk of crap just flew down my throat." I almost died laughing right there.

I was just reminded of one from "saffym" previous post about the alpaca episode. It's when Rowe was hanging onto the female alpaca's tail, and the owner goes "you don't have to keep holding it you know." Something like that, but it was just funny to see Rowe's face in uncomfortable agony only to realize he didn't have to hold the tail.
My favourite is the one he is in the coal mine, and they blow up a section of the wall and he says something to the effect he just poo-ed his pants. More than not it's not so much what as it is how he says it. A situational genius!!!
Nothing specific, just some of the things he chooses to pick up on, and repeat, like sticking his finger in the alligators butt to sex them, or filling the wine kegs through the bung-hole.
"If at first you don't suceed, skydiving is NOT for you!"
"I can't hear you when you go that high....try again." One of my favorites, lol. Also, the bell cleaning (?) episode where he's counting the bell rings...everything he says there is hilarious!
This may not be a quote per se; but during the extermination episode with VexCon (love those guys, always unintentionally funny...), when they're trying to hose some poison into some termites, when all the tubes and equipment just kept on screwing up and leaking and gushing into his face; "CLEARLY, this can`t be safe!". I mean, it's just that everything kept malfunctioning... Laughed myself silly.
Other than that, when he was stuck under the bell and they went off, they were only supposed to ring about 11 times or something yet they just kept on ringing; he got so exasperated... God that was worth every second. Glad they kept it in.
Caution. Person is an immature jerk. May use sarcasm. Treat like a cripple.
I like the episode where they are at the algae plant and they are making chemicals or something like that out of this stuff that the algae produces. The scientist guy is trying to explain in these long complicated scientific phrases how you are supposed to take a pole and stir up the algae so they will produce this stuff--and the scientist is just going on and on...
And when the scientist is done Mike looks dead at him and says, "So we're just pissing off the algae?"
