There’s no denying that Will Ferrell has some of the most quotable movies ever: Old School, Elf, Anchorman, Blades of Glory and, one of our personal favorites, Step Brothers. It’s hard to believe it’s been more than a decade since the world was gifted with such epic one-liners as “Did we just become best friends?” And while we’re still holding out hope for a sequel, another round of hilarity from Ferrell and John C. Reilly as Brennan Huff and Dale Doback may not be in the cards. Don’t get us wrong — we’re not giving up on the prospect. But since the coronavirus pandemic pretty much brought the movie industry to a grinding halt in 2020, any potential sequel would obviously be a ways off anyway. So, we did the next best thing by compiling all of the best Step Brothers quotes from the 2008 cult classic.

Enjoy! Just don’t laugh so hard you fall off your dinosaur. And when you’re done with these (and you aren’t doing karate in the garage or watching Cops), crack up over our quotes pages on Schitt’s Creek, The Office, Parks and Rec, Seinfeld, and Bridesmaids.
