While reading the English Subtitles on Season 2, Disk 4, when Professor Farnsworth said, "Fing-longer", the subtitle read, "Thing Longer".
Actually, the reason I wanted to read the subtitles was because I never understood what the Professor was saying to Leela when he described her as (what sounded like) "dulless dishwater Leela". What is "dulless dishwater", I thought?
The line is "dull-as-dishwater", an expression I'd never heard. Billy West is usually very careful how he pronounces his lines and I was surprised that I couldn't understand what he was saying.
His carefulness is noted by one of the commentators on another episode where he clearly pronounces the letters "D", "N", and "A", every time he says, "DNA". I noticed that he also was careful to pronounce each letter of LSD in the episode, "Iron Cook" (Iron-edoo Cook-ed-oo!)

So what I hear you saying is that if you cannot understand one of the actors that you should just continue in ignorance.
A: There's a dedicated thread for goofs of any kind. Subtitles included. B: Shut up.

Okay, everyone ... It's time to put the mouse down, step away from the computer, and get some fresh air. (You know, that big room outside of your house?) (Or your parents' house, as the case may be?)
I'm not using a mouse..
I'm using neither mouse nor touchpad. Only the best pointing device for me.

I'm using a tablet. SUCK IT. [Flexo] Nah, just kidding, you're all right. [/Flexo] It was sunny here, but that doesn't mean it's warm. 
Truth. I stepped outside thinking it looked really nice and it was actually about 38 F. Which is rather cold, especially while barefoot.

To answer the OP's question, I believe the line is "Dull as dishwater Leela".
I think Amy put it best... Smeesh Leela, Victor said I was a 'Beee-u-tiful' woman.
