Do These Dialogue Lines Do Anything For You? (Two-Line Dialogue Twitter Fest Results)

Yesterday and the day before this blog ran a two-line twitter fest focused on improving dialogue! Check out this post to get the down-low on how this works--and how Joss Whedon uses two lines of dialogue to kick storytelling butt--and check out my results below.

"Live and let live, that's what I always say.""Except you shot that guy.""Hey man, I said it's what I say, not what I do."

"I just can't! Every time I try to get better, I just find myself hating everyone more! I hate ME!"
"It's okay. I love you enough for two."

"Gah, your problem is, you love yourself like--like--like you just can't get enough of you!"
"And you're mad because neither can you."

"If I WANTED to risk my life for ten l'il alien-huggers, how'd I know you won't leave me behind?"
"You won't care if we do. You're curious."

This one's probably best done with the last line in reverse: "You're curious. You won't care if we do."

"I feared the worst."
"WHAT? What's worse than being boiled alive and thrown into a meat grinder?"
"Falling in love with you."

@StaceyNash responded to and liked that one!

"Live and let live, that's what I always say.""Except you shot that guy.""Hey man, I said it's what I say, not what I do."

"You know, I didn't love you the day I married you."
"That's okay. You loved me the night after."

Man that one's a little o_O

"Hold up--you're gonna KILL my bro? Fo' TREES?"
"I only say this once: if I lose just one leaf'd brother tomorrow, you lose one with flesh."

I really like the story that one implies.

"Positive thoughts draw benevolence from the ether, making dreams reality, happiness attainable--"
"Yeah, but can that get me outta hell?"

What do you think? Does that do anything for you? What are your favorite "two-liners" from movies/books/your WIP/etc?
