Where does the line "This is why we can't have nice things!" come from? It's driving me nuts. Although at least Elton John's Song For Guy has displaced Joni Mitchell's Free Man In Paris from my brane.

That's the only instance of the quote showing up on IMDB so I think you've cracked it.

Bloody huge page though so I've pinched the scene they quote.

Homer: Here, little fella'.
[Homer pours beer into Linguo's mouth]
Lisa: Dad. No.
Linguo: Error.
Homer: I'm sorry. I thought he was a party robot.
Lisa: Oh. This is why I can't have nice things. Grrr... every time I design a robot, somebody comes along and breaks it.
