Funny Quotes from Horrible Bosses Movie

"Horrible Bosses" is a comedy starring Jason Bateman as "Nick", Charlie Day as "Dale", and Jason Sudeikis as "Kurt". The three decide that their bosses are so horrible that they are going to kill them.

Fire Professor Xavier Quote

Colin Farrell as Bobby: You can fire Professor Xavier.
Jason Sudeikis as Kurt: You mean Hank?
Bobby: Creeps me out, rolling around all day in his special little secret chair.

Professor Xavier, also known as Professor X, is a paraplegic superhero character from Marvel Comics' X-Men. Colin Farrell's line about his "special little secret chair" is kind of humorous, but mostly the whole thing is so inappropriate that all you really can do is laugh.

Drag Racing Quote

Detective: You want to explain why you were speeding?
Jason Bateman as Nick: I was drag racing.
Detective: In a Prius?
Nick: I don't win a lot.

The Prius is apparently the go-to car for movie humor nowadays. But Jason Bateman's response about not winning a lot is what really makes this Horrible Bosses movie quote funny.

Dean 'MF' Jones Quote

Charlie Day as Dale: Your first name is 'Mother F--ker'?
Jamie Foxx as Dean 'MF' Jones: My real name is 'Dean'.
Jason Bateman as Nick: Dean Jones. That's the same name of the actor in Herbie and the Love Bug.
Dean 'MF' Jones: I know who he is b--ch. I can't walk around this f--kin neighborhood with that Disney-ass name.

This Horrible Bosses movie quote is mostly just about actor Jamie Foxx. Jamie Foxx is hilarious as Dean 'MF' Jones. But there is some humor in the name itself and the idea of some people not wanting to walk around with a "Disney-ass" name.

Gam-Gam Quote

Jason Bateman as Nick: You know that last month you made me work so late that I missed saying goodbye to my Gam-Gam?
Kevin Spacey as Dave: I'm sorry, what?
Nick: My grandmother. I told you that I needed to see her because she was very, very sick. You said if I left early I'd get fired, and she died before I made it to the hospital.
Dave: I'm sorry.
Nick: Thank you.
Dave: I had no idea that you called your grandmother 'Gam-Gam.' (Laughing) Sorry. Sorry that you didn't get to say bye-bye to Gam-Gam.

On one hand, you can sort of understand Dave laughing at "Gam-Gam" coming out of Jason Bateman's mouth. "Gam-Gam" is definitely an adorable term for one's grandmother, but it does sound funny said by a grown man. However, this Horrible Bosses movie quote is funny also because, again, Kevin Spacey's reaction simply inappropriate enough to make most laugh.

Honk 6 Times Quote

Nick: You're gonna be our lookout.
Dale: I'm gonna honk the horn six times.
Kurt: Something much more subtle...
Dale: Four honks?
Nick: Can you honk once?
Dale: People honk once all the time; you're gonna be running in and out of the house.

This Horrible Bosses movie quote is funny to me because it's exactly the kind of silly conversations you can imagine would take place between people who don't know what they're doing. Plus the imagery of them running in and out of the house is funny too.
