Whether it was James Avery\u2019s classic quick delivery or the timing of a well-placed oral jab to those Turtle boys, Shredder always seemed one step ahead in his plans and his verbal jousts. Here are five of the best one-liners from \u201cguy who never has to look for a can opener.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cTonight I dine on turtle soup.\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 The penultimate quote has made its way into the 1987 animated show, the comic <em>and<\/em> the games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cSayonara you shell-backed simpletons.\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 This insult, thrown out to the Turtles as Shredder was getting away for the millionth time, made Lyndsey pause a VHS and ask her mom: 1. What is a simpleton? 2. What does sayonara mean? and 3. Why is Shredder so awesome? Educational and inspiring.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<strong>I borrowed your Alien Express card. I never leave the Technodrome without it.\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 Referring to co-conspirator Krang\u2019s ability to pay for technology, Shredder evoked modern advertisement to explain how he gets away with borrowing stuff and never paying for it during the seven seasons he wreaked havoc on New York City.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cCreatins\u201d \u201cBlasted turtles\u201d \u201cFools\u201d \u201cWretched reptiles\u201d \u201cIdiot(s)\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 Shredder\u2019s favorite words to describe his help, his nemesis and his help. In that order. Watch a video of his quotes on YouTube and these will show up quite often.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cBlast that grotesque ganglion!\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 A nice way to refer to Krang. Shredder was capable of big words that required viewers to think. It\u2019s nice to have an intelligent super villain who could make you laugh while hatching world domination plans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oroku Saki. Villain. Genius.
