** Reactions from the said comment above ranges from confirmation, constructive criticisms about how Shepard show weakness with that line, genuinely thought that it is a traditional human farewell so they didn't fuss about it, to sharing the same sentiment of abusing a phrase/word and thus has no place to talk. And when Shepard is still worrying over their {{Catchphrase}}, the rest of the squad are panicking and tell Shepard to focus on their predicament.

* In the ''Literature/ForgottenRealms'' novel ''Literature/AzureBonds'', Giogioni Wyvernspur does a frighteningly accurate impression of King Azoun IV of Cormyr--so much so that an assassin tries to kill him in the mistaken belief that he's the king in disguise. When Giogi ends up meeting the king, he's asked to demonstrate his impression. The king is not amused, though his court mage assures him that he does, in fact, sound like that.

Alice encounters a doppelgänger or a recording of herself and is shocked as to the style of speech she uses, and how stupid it sounds, and inquires of her friends as to whether she really sounds like that.

TruthInTelevision. We hear our own voices through our own ears, which are interrupted by our brains' perception and we often perceive it as different from how it really is and are surprised by the real thing. Part of this is because your voice reverberates through your ''own skull'', making it sound deeper. However, your voice doesn't necessarily sound bad if you don't like it, it's just that you're more used to how you hear it than how everyone else does.
