Melissa McCarthy continues to be one busy lady. After stealing the show in hilarious comedies Bridesmaids and Tammy, to name just two, it’s like she’s just getting started. Not only is she currently filming The Kitchen, but she also has a film in post-production (The Happytime Murders), one in pre-production (Superintelligence) and another completed and ready to hit theaters this October (Can You Ever Forgive Me?).
You know what that means: even more hilarious one-liners for us all to keep stored in our back pocket and use at the most opportune times. Because who hasn’t busted out “It’s coming out of me like hot lava!” a few times since Bridesmaids came out?
Ahead, you’ll find McCarthy’s best, most hilarious one-liners from many of her past films — from The Boss to more recent releases like Life of the Party, which is in theaters now.
