What Palin-isms have become part of your life?

[youthere]

I found I can get my kids to do just about anything, and all I have to do is threaten to "Palinspeak" (Oh you betcha! There ya'go Joe Sixpack! Come on now Suzy housecoat...when the dishes don't get washed the terrorists win!)

15. I've used a few lines from the campaign on mine.

Yesterday I asked them "Do you think we can quantify the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of water...?" Silence. One student tentatively offered a yes and I did an Obama shout "Yes we can!" There were some chuckles and probably just as many eyerolls.

I love that new word Palinate, meaning
dodging a question and just making up
your own spiel.

10. That was the slogan of Ballard Bitters

Ballard Bitters, a Seattle microbrew, had the slogan "Ya sure, ya betcha." Now it's known as Redhook Ale and in some places Longhammer Ale.

8. I was using "you betcha" with friends long before Palin stole it from me.

Wink, wink....

[ogneopasno]

13. "In what respect," "Oh dear!" (from palinaspresident), and the rambling nonsense that just sort of

oozes from one's mouth when one is in the zone.

ETA: And all the "Joe the Little Man on a Horse" from palinaspresident. It's really more the satire than the reality that I imitate.

[endarkenment]

14. "Oh god what is that fuckturd doing on my tv again"

I don't why but this seems to be heard frequently around my house.

[tridim]

16. Every time I go on Ebay I say "I put it on Eeee Bayyyyee"

And I hate myself every time I say it.

[NRaleighLiberal]

17. probably "you betcha", though I've used that since seeing Fargo!

[PinkoDonkey]

18. "And not only, but also, too..."

Used with my s.o. when tired/waking up/have just realized that what I am saying is nonsensical.
