Bitcoin and Butterfly Labs shouldn't be in the same sentence.
if you're against Butterfly Labs, you're against bitcoin.
Sorry, but I would have to agree with the first statement, butterfly labs' business model is AWFUL for the bitcoin adoption. THERE IS NO EXCUSE for a company to:
* Charge upfront for a product they haven't release. Look at leapmotion.com a relatively new company that is about to release a hot product and they would never charge your credit car until they ship the product to you.
* postpone release of a product over and over for more than 8 months. Company released updates that made no sense, and from a project management point of view looking back, there was NO WAY that they could have released ASIC on the original release date. That shows lack of professionalism and that obviously hurt the bitcoin community and its attempt to bring more adopters.
Butterfly labs is a joke. And I'd know a thing or two about business and retail, I work for a fortune 50 company.
So yeah, I'd have to agree that Bitcoin and Butterfly Labs shouldn't be used in the same sentence, at least not for now.

My one liner...
The line being the price chart one that goes from Christmas & New Years 2011 when I reminded my good friends that I celebrated it with that the coins I'd bought the month before at under $3 were already showing a healthy profit & that they should get in to some, same friends that I recommended gold to in March 2007 when it was $666 per Oz & they said Oh No,no,no - by then it had made about 300% in under 4 years - anyway they've had updates when bitcoin doubled to $6, then redoubled to $12, yet again to $24 & recently to $48 plus & they still haven't been persuaded that it is even worth a look at, other friends I've also tried to interest have been equally unreceptive, one of the more investment minded & entrepreneurial I printed out this chart when visiting for lunch recently highlighting 2012 summer's $6 price when I emailed him re looking in to this & the price when we met up last month, $24 = a fourfold increase, he did start to pay some attention & said he'd get back to me - expect that he may be a little shocked that $24 is ancient history now already.

A result of trying to explain bitcoin to friends who can't be bothered to spend a bit of time reading about it:
Bitcoin - it could well be in you interest to take a bit of an interest.
What is bitcoin?
- look it up on the internet
Where can I buy some bitcoins?
-try the internet
(pretty much any other question)?

if you're against Butterfly Labs, you're against bitcoin.
Presumptuous a little no? That's a false statement. I've been supporting BTC since I found out what they are. I try to use companies/vendors that use them and have spent my life savings and my daughter's college fund on SilkRoad.

"Grandpa, is it true that you had one whole bitcoin when you were young?"
"Yeah, about that... maybe now is a good time to tell you. You know I had been jailed and tortured back in the days of the civil war when I got captured by the western cartel forces in the 2020s? You know... I had been carrying this through all this time of hardship. I still have this Casascius 1 BTC coin *whips out casascius coin*. It was in my asshole for 23 years and now I can finally pass it on to you".
EDIT: gladly we have brainwallets.

I think there should be a one-liner that appeals to the merchants. Any ideas?
Sick of being on the wrong side of the chargeback lever?
Bitcoin: There is nothing more powerful than an idea whose time has come.

I really like those. They can be put forward every time something crisis-like happens to fiat currencies or bonds around the world.
yep. And that face is so funny, also.
But it seem that our friends at SA have already managed to sneak some in there:
