Vince Vaughn On: Getting Lucky (Dodgeball)
VV: "There's someone out there for everybody."
Owen: "You think?"
VV: "Absolutely. In some cases, there's two somebody's for one person. I like to call that "the jackpot"."
But look past his "Trent from Swingers" personality and you'll see
that the man is a treasure trove for lines about how the world could be
made into a better place to live. Take for instance his stance on some
of the major social and political problems plaguing the world today.

"People get carjacked."

I'm one with everyone - with the Prime Minister of England, and my
cousin Harry, you and me, the fat kid from 'What's Happening,' the
Olsen twins, Natalie Portman, the guy who wrote 'Catcher in the Rye,'
Nat King Cole, Carrot Top, Jay-Z, Weird Al Yankovic, Harry Potter, if
he existed, the whore on the street corner, your mother. We're all one."
Vince Vaughn On: Acceptance (Be Cool)
"I'm just sayin' if that's what this is gonna be, it's gonna be that."
Truly, Vince Vaughn is a man who believes in a better world, and our new language should respect his beliefs.
And it's not just social ills that his quotes can be rallied around.
Raising children is an important part of life and Vince is no stranger
to Fatherhood. He has spoken out on Family Values on multiple
occasions, and those speeches have come to be some of the most
influential words of wisdom that this world has ever seen.
Vince Vaughn On: Parenting (Swingers)
"Our baby's all grown up."

"Alright, let me be the first to say congratulations. You get one
vagina for the rest of your life. Real smart, Frank. Way to work it
through."

VV: "Whoa. Whoa. Why the F-ing? Why in front of the kid? All ya
gotta do is say "earmuffs" to him, and you can say anything, *beep*
*beep* bitch."

Vince Vaughn On: Having Your Mom's Back (Anchorman)
Champ Kind: "I will smash your face into a car windshield, and then
take your mother Dorothy Mantooth out for a nice seafood dinner and
never call her again!"
VV: "Dorothy Mantooth is a saint! You understand me? Dorothy Mantooth is a saint!"
So we've seen that Vince Vaughnese covers Family Life,
Socio-political issues and Chicks, but it goes even further still
beyond those areas. After doing some research on the subject I have
found that Vince's words can extend to the field of sports:
Vince Vaughn On: Physical Skills (Wedding Crashers)
"You and I both know I'm a phenomenal dancer!"
Vince Vaughn On: Knowing Your Own Skills (Wedding Crashers)
"John, I was first team All-State. I can put the ball anywhere I want to. I'll make it rain out here."
Vince Vaughn On: Water Sports (Wedding Crashers)
"Why don't you try getting jacked off under the table in front of
the whole damn family and have some real problems, jackass. Hey, what
were they like anyway? They looked pretty good, are they real? Are they
built for speed or comfort? What'd you do with them? Motorboat? You
play the motorboat? [makes sputtering motorboat noise] You motor
boating son of a bitch! You old sailor you! Where is she? She still in
the house?"
His words can extend to the field of Physical Development:
Vince Vaughn On: Death (Old School)
"Don't beat yourself up over this, Mitch. It's not your fault. Dammit, Blue was old. That's what old people do. They die."
Vince Vaughn On: Getting Older (Be Cool)
"Nice ass won't get you through your whole life. Once you turn thirty you better have a personality."
Vince Vaughn On: Body Art (Wedding Crashers)
"Tattoo on the lower back? Might as well be a bullseye."
And the field of Business:
Vince Vaughn On: The Entertainment Industry (Swingers)
"Everybody steals from everybody, that's Hollywood."
Vince Vaughn On: Business Tactics (Old School)
"He's playing hardball. And I got to admit. I'm impressed."
Vince Vaughn On: Party Planning (Made)
"Here's what I'm gonna ask of you… We're going to be spending the
night in New York, so it worked out well for all of us. I want you to
take it back to the business class, I want you to round up a couple of
honeys… At our hotel room we're gonna have kind of a pool party.
California gangster-style, you know what I mean? Kick ass pool party
thing."
But who are we kidding? The basis of any new language is not how we
speak about the challenges we face in our daily lives, but in the way
we communicate we each other. The way we talk to our friends; the way
we treat other people. Even before the birth of Vince Vaughenese, the
traditional English language was adopting his quotes to use as
definitions for friendship and communication. You in fact may have used
one or two in the past. These quotes were the main arbiter in the birth
of Vince's language, the catalyst for the need of a Vince-specific
method of speaking, and most of all, why we think he's so goddamn funny.
Vince Vaughn ..ing Friends (Wedding Crashers)
"A friend in need is a pest."
Vince Vaughn On: Being a Good Wingman (Swingers)
"Look at this, OK? I want you to remember this face. This is the guy behind the guy behind the guy."
Vince Vaughn On: Giving A Friend Some Confidence (Swingers)
"I don't want you to be the guy in the PG-13 movie everyone's really
hoping makes it happen. I want you to be like the guy in the rated R
movie, you know, the guy you're not sure whether or not you like yet.
You're not sure where he's coming from. Okay? You're a bad man. You're
a bad man, Mikey. You're a bad man, bad man."
Vince Vaughn On: Betrayal (Wedding Crashers)
"I hope you flip your bike over and knock your two front teeth out!
You selfish son of a bitch! You leave me in the trenches taking
grenades, John!"
All good languaticians (I just made that word up) know that the
specialized words and phrases we make up with our friends are what
constitute a real language. Being able to personalize speech and create
unique ways of saying ordinary things is what makes a language popular.
This is how Vince Vaughnese will truly reach widespread, global
popularity. For instance, if you were proud of your friend and wanted
to tell him in a cool way how you feel, you could say: "Good job man,
way to go. You're kicking ass." but that would still be kind of lame.
Let's see that same phrase in Vince Vaughnese:
Vince Vaughn On: Compliments (Swingers)
"You're so money and you don't even know it!"
And if you were at a party and somebody asked what you did for a
living, you could give some boring answer like "Hi, I'm The Jay, I'm a
stock broker". But c'mon, really, wouldn't the conversation be so much
more fun if you used a Vince Vaughnese-ism, instead?
Vince Vaughn On: Being Who You Are (Clay Pigeons)
"I'm Lester. Lester the uh, molester."
Moving to the most important part of language, communicating with
the opposite sex, we find that this is the area Vince Vaughnese-ism
excels at the most. It's fairly common knowledge that in the last
decade Vince has redefined the dating scene and male/female
relationships. From changing the time men take to call women ("Six
days‿), to what men call women ("beautiful babies") to even where men
go to find women ("All right, all right I'll ask her. Miss, miss! Do
you know where the high school girls hang out around here?"), Vince's
relationship-based movie quotes have established a new set of rules,
one's that will make Vince Vaughnese the linguistic touchstone for
which all twenty-something's will go to pray. Let's take a lesson from
some more of Vince's views on sex, dating and relationships.
Vince Vaughn On: The Secrets of Flirting (Swingers)
"All I do is stare at their mouths and wrinkle my nose, and I turn out to be a sweetheart."
Vince Vaughn On: Respecting Women (Made)
"Here's 50 bucks, take this in case I get drunk and call you a bitch later."
Vince Vaughn On: Enjoying the Nightlife (Wedding Crashers)
"Go out there and get some strange ass!"
Vince Vaughn On: Getting Over A Breakup (Wedding Crashers)
"She hasn't answered your calls, she didn't respond to any of your
letters, she didn't respond to the candygram. God only knows what
happened to the kitten you got for her. 'Cause she didn't keep it, and
I know you're not raising the goddamn thing. I think it's very obvious
at this juncture that she just flat out does not wanna see you anymore."
Vince Vaughn On: Obsession (Wedding Crashers)
"I got a stage five. Virgin. Clinger."
Vince Vaughn On: Dating (Wedding Crashers)
VV: "Janice, I apologize to you if I don't seem real eager to jump
into a forced awkward intimate situation that people like to call
dating. I don't like the feeling. You're sitting there, you're
wondering do I have food on my face, am I eating, am I talking too
much, are they talking enough, am I interested I'm not really
interested, should I play like I'm interested but I'm not that
interested but I think she might be interested but do I want to be
interested but now she's not interested? So all of the sudden I'm
getting, I'm starting to get interested… And when am I supposed to kiss
her? Do I have to wait for the door cause then it's awkward, it's like
well goodnight. Do you do like that ass-out hug? Where you like, you
hug each other like this and your ass sticks out cause you're trying
not to get too close or do you just go right in and kiss them on the
lips or don't kiss them at all? It's very difficult trying to read the
situation. And all the while you're just really wondering are we gonna
get hopped up enough to make some bad decisions? Perhaps play a little
game called "just the tip". Just for a second, just to see how it
feels. Or, ouch, ouch you're on my hair."
So now you can see that the language of Vince Vaughnese successfully
covers all aspects of life, and if used in conversation can make you
smarter, wiser, funnier, more confident and just plain cooler. But
let's ask one final question to determine if Vince Vaughn is truly
worthy of naming and conceiving a language around. Does it make you a
better person? In English I could describe myself in a multitude of
ways, all designed to make me feel better about who I am, and more
attractive to other people. Can I do that in Vince Vaughnese? Let's
find out…
Vince Vaughn On: Goals (Dodgeball)
"I found that if you have a goal, that you might not reach it. But
if you don't have one, then you are never disappointed. And I gotta
tell ya… it feels phenomenal."
Vince Vaughn On: Discipline (Wedding Crashers)
"Lock it up!"
Vince Vaughn On: Pessimism (Wedding Crashers)
"Please don't take a turn to negative town."
Vince Vaughn On: Labels (Wedding Crashers)
"I'm a cocksman!"
Vince Vaughn On: Standing Your Ground (Wedding Crashers)
Owen Wilson: "He lived with his mom till he was forty! She tried to poison his oatmeal!"
VV: "Erroneous! Erroneous! Erroneous on both accounts!"
Vince Vaughn On: Excuses (Wedding Crashers)
"Rule 76: No excuses. Play like a champion!"
I think we can put that question to rest. Truly, the language of
Vince Vaughnese can do anything. It can help you find a boyfriend or
girlfriend, it can help you raise a family, it can help you live your
life smarter and come to accept the course of human events. It can get
you laid. It's the perfect language. In a world where movie quotes are
the new social currency, Vince Vaughnese is the Benjamin, the high
water mark, the only language you wanna speak. Besides, wouldn't you
rather sound like Vince Vaughn than just about anyone else?
It's All Deadly!
