Released in 1995, Clueless became a rom-com classic that has proven itself to be truly timeless, only getting more and more popular as the years pass. The film tells the story of a rich high school girl from Beverly Hills as she tries to navigate the complexities of her world while helping a new kid fit in.
If you’ve seen Clueless, then you’ll get why the film is a well-loved classic with a cult-like following. Thanks to the memorable character of Cher, played by Alicia Silverstone, and her crew composed of Tai, Murray, Dionne, and Travis, the rich and sassy high-schoolers have got us rollin’ with homies of our own.
The best part of the film is the sheer number of quotable lines that are completely hilarious, making them staples in our box of quotes to use with our friends and against our enemies.
"You're a virgin who can't drive!" Talk about burning someone down. This line is so unforgettable that we can still visualize Tai’s face in our heads as she says it to Cher.
"Oh my god, I am totally buggin'." It’s not only valley girls who can say it. We’ve all been total buggin’ at some point in our lives, so just go ahead and say it out loud.
"OK, so he is kind of a Baldwin." Just replace Baldwin’s name with any Hollywood heartthrob of your choice, whether it be Efron, Gosling, or Evans.
"Do you prefer fashion victim or ensembly-challenged?" When someone rudely steals your style, this is the perfect insult without resorting to cussing words. If, however, someone beats you to it and says it to you first, know that you’ve still got the perfect answer up your sleeve, namely, in Cher’s words, “duh.”
"You are a snob and a half." Because it’s not just enough to be a basic snob, you need to be more than that!
"She's a full-on Monet. It's like a painting, see? From far away, it's OK, but up close it's a big old mess." You do not want to be a full-on Monet, I repeat, you do not want to be full-on Monet. It’s one of the most politely disagreeable things Cher says in the movie and it’s also very true.
"Whatever." When Amber threw the “w” sign with her fingers and said the word, it became an iconic gesture of the ‘90s.
"Ugh, as if!" Being the most iconic of all the quotes in the film, it’s something we say all the time, back then and up to now. Someone being a jerk while you’re walking down the street? Say it loud and proud, girlfriend.
