Do you have catchphrases? |
|
TV stars and sitcom characters have them, right?
Jackie Gleason: "How sweeeeet it is!" Fonzy: "Ayyyy!" Emily Litella: "Never mind."
Mine: said in a mock Cockney accent, "I don't know, rightly."
Yours?

2. "Stuff to spice up your love life" |
|
Is the catch phrase for our store. Does that count?

;)
Actually, I would say no, it isn't. That's more like a slogan or motto. A catchphrase is more like something that pops out of you as a standard response to a given situation. Now if you personally said "Stuff to spice up your love life," every time you passed someone the sugar, for instance, that would be a catchphrase.

7. I say "Idiot" under my breath a lot. |
|
And when I'm driving and someone does something stupid, I yell (with the windows up) "DUMB MOTHERFUCKER!" in my best Chris Rock impression (which is still pretty bad).

8. I co-opted Wooderson's "Aww right, aww right, aww right" |
|

from "Dazed and Confused". I use it whenever something fun is about to happen.
Edit: Also Quagmire's "Giggidy giggidy gig-gi-dy!"

Buy the ticket, take the ride.

It is what it is.
I say all that shit way too much.

"Calm yourself." (usually irritates folks, I find.)
"what the flock!?!?" yeah, I could say :wtf: too — and I do, but sometimes I just turn it around.
"You could say that." A convenient phrase when I don't want to get into a political fight with someone; half the time they don't realize I'm not agreeing with them.
And a stolen one (only steal from the best; this is from Douglas Adams):
"Time is an illusion; lunchtime, doubly so."
