Default Pay me more!

It's the time to do our mid year reviews. I was discussing this with a cow-orker through IM today and came up with some movie quotes that I thought would be beneficial to my managers.

Here is an excerpt from my IM to my cow-orker:

beefche: I'm stuck on how many different ways I can say, "I am awesome, pay me more."

cow-orker: pay me more, because I am awesome

beefche: yoda version: awesome I am, more pay me.
Gandalf: Thou Shalt Pay Me More!
Legolas: Eif lineal eldinvald aurter! (that looks Elvish, right?).
Keanu: Whoa! (that means pay me more)


Who else and how would they say this?

I'm impressed that Gandalf, Legolas and Keanu are all coworkers of yours. Why did you never tell me this? It puts a whole new spin on that Legolas poster you had in your cubical.
