So many words and phrases from the president’s speech in the Independence Day movie. My brother has the whole thing memorized, he even did it as a monologue at a speech thing once.

Band camp.

Similar movie, with some of the same actors.

You’d be surprised how often people between 25 and 35 use Spongebob references.
