Quotes
-
Ted : And so I licked the Liberty Bell.
Laura : How did it taste?
Ted : Like freedom... no, actually it tasted like pennies.
Laura : My God. Did you guys really do that?
Older Ted : We really did. And that was when I realized why I hung out with Barney. I never got where I thought I wanted to go, but I always got a great story.

Ted : Why can't we go to MacLaren's?
Barney : MacLaren's is boring. Let's go to the strip clubs. We're gonna meet some ladies. Phone five!
[high fives the phone]
Older Ted Mosby : I had no idea why I hung out with Barney.
Barney : You didn't phone-five did you, Ted? I know when you don't phone-five, Ted.
Ted : Come on, MacLaren's is fun.
Barney : [motioning with his hand] MacLaren's is THIS much fun. But what I'm offering is the chance to have *THIS* much fun!
Ted : [also using his hands] See, you always say that, you always say it's gonna be *THIS* much fun, but it always ends up being THIS much fun. This much fun is good. It's safe.
Barney : This whole hand signal thing doesn't really work over the phone, does it?
Ted : No, it doesn't.

Older Ted Mosby : So, there was this one night; before I met your mother, when I really wanted to go to the bar.
Son : The bar. *Big* surprise.
Daughter : You sure spent a lot of time in bars.
Older Ted Mosby : Well, that's just what we did back then. Me, Marshall and Lily, Barney, Robin; we all used to hang out at this one bar called MacLaren's.
