Billy Madison/YMMV


 * Big Lipped Alligator Moment: There is a solitary musical sequence in the middle of the movie containing several of the film's characters.
 * Crowning Moment of Awesome/Funny: The principal/contest host's reply to Billy's answer about the Industrial Revolution (see the quote on the main page). So awesome/hilarious, in fact, that a bankruptcy judge used that very quote to a defendant in real life!
 * Family Unfriendly Aesop: Go ahead and teach grade-school kids that peeing your pants is cool! Billy does this to keep one boy from being mocked. The class learns the lesson well, and it's treated as a good thing. Veronica even praises Billy for it, which makes her about the worst schoolteacher in existence.
 * She's pretty much shown to be a terrible person all around, it's one of the reasons they're so suited for each other.
 * Memetic Mutation: Pretty much every line in the film. If you grew up in The Nineties, you can probably quote this film line-for-line. Special mentions go to "O'Doyle Rules!" "Shampoo is better/No, conditioner is better," "Nudie magazine day" and, of course, the whole "I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul" monologue.
 * The latter became popular to put after Sarah Palin quotes during the 2008 presidential election.
 * This troper is convinced that there is a particular demographic who will, upon hearing the word "chlorophyll", will either reply, or think, "Chlorophyll? More like BOROPHYLL."
 * Moral Event Horizon: When Eric tries to shoot Billy.
