Favorite catchphrase?
Mainly I'm thinking in terms of TV or movie inspired catchphrases, but if you can think of any that just sprang up from the zeitgeist, by all means run with it. A poll will result in about a week if this gets any traction at all; unless I'm begged, "Kiss my grits" won't be on it, however.:P

27. I think he also coined 'asshat'
Perhaps inadvertantly.

In one of the first episodes, he told Eric he'd better do something "...unless you want to wear your ass for a hat," and when he reminded him later, Eric said, "Yeah, I know — ass, hat..."

5. (sniff) That's my favorite Roberta Flack song!
Ok, it isn't really a Roberta Flack song and probably wouldn't be my favorite if it were. Just struck me as funny for a minute there.:)

48. Then this probably won't help: The last show aired 38 years ago.
My parents were big fans. I was only nine years old so I didn't "get" a lot of the humor but it was very subversive for the time.

54. I don't remember this catchphrase at all but if somebody seconds it I'll put it on the poll
(not that anybody's ever going to look at this, but coincidentally, "Dead or alive, you're coming with me" is a pretty good submission.)

41. "So I got that goin' for me."
Usually said by me after a self deprecating comment.

Example: "I'm a single, dark, freelance, jazz musician in a state that idolizes Toby Keith. So I got that goin' for me."

Origin: Bill Murray as Carl Spackler in "Caddyshack" relates to Chevy Chase his experience caddying for the Dali Lama.

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald ... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one – big hitter, the Lama – long, into a 10,000-foot crevice, right at the base of this glacier. And do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga ... gunga – gunga lagunga. So we finish the 18th and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.
