Quotes

    Referee: Ladies and gentlemen and smizmars, welcome to tonight's main event. In this corner, from Mom's Friendly Robot Factory in America's heartland, Mexico: Bender!

    Bender: [In Electric Ladyland Laptop Dances.] Hubba-hubba, she is built — in Mexico, I believe.

    Bender: Whoa, whoa, whoa! I'm Mexican and I find that offensive. [He opens his chest cabinet. "Hecho En Mexico" is etched on the inside of his door. He closes it and it falls off.]

    Bender: Oh, no? I'm 40% lucky. [He bangs on his chest twice.] The scrap metal I'm made from included a truckload of horseshoes from the luckiest racehorses in Mexico, who had just been sent to a glue factory.
