* "Daijoubou" (Hikari from the orginal version of ''{{Pokemon}}'').

* ''{{Twilight}}'' has made the word "chagrin" infamous.

** Not to mention '''cake''' for a time, of all words! Fortunately, it's worn off- because ''yikes'' did this trope applied to a word that common get old!

* [[WarHammer40K "Heresy!"]]

* ''StargateSG1'' Indeed.

* "[[ThatWasObjectionable Objection!]]" makes someone think of ''PhoenixWrightAceAttorney''.
** Or, y'know, courtroom dramas in general.

** Also "neurotoxin", at least for some fans of the game. And "still alive", after the EndingTheme.
** And, for that matter, "aperture", "science", and "cake". Portal was very, very good at this.
*** Cake? [[spoiler:"TheCakeIsALie" is the actual [[MemeticMutation meme]].]]

* ''{{Stargate SG-1}}'' had Teal'c and his frequent "indeed."
** If that didn't do it for you, [[TheWire Omar Little]] did. Oh, in''deed''.
* Similarly, the word "Fascinating" will send most people back to ''StarTrek''. Whether it conjures the image of someone with [[StarTrekTheOriginalSeries pointy ears]] or [[StarTrekTheNextGeneration gold skin]] is a [[JustForPun generational]] thing.
** For that matter, "Assimilate" is irreversibly linked to the Borg, and anyone who uses "Logical" often will no doubt call to mind Vulcans. To a lesser extent, "Irrelevant" and "Efficient" are also tied to the Borg, usually freed drones like Seven of Nine. It's more of an EU thing though.

* "Point," (as in, you have made a good point) in TimothyZahn's StarWarsExpandedUniverse novels.

* [[EliteBeatAgents Agents are ... GO!]]
** '''[[OsuTatakaeOuendan OUENDANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!]]'''
** ''{{Thunderbirds}}'' also "are GO!"
** As are ''ThunderCats''!
** ThunderCats don't "Go," (only in ''{{Juno}}'') '''THUNDER CATS, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!'''

** Firefly also brought us 'Gorram'
** And 'the special hell.'
** And "I'll be in my bunk".

* "Whoa", in the "expressing awe" sense rather than the "stopping a horse" sense, is associated with KeanuReeves.
** As with [[OlderThanTheyThink Joey Lawrence]].

* The movie ''{{Juno}}'' pretty much reintroduced the word "shenanigans" to the people who saw it.
** After ''TheSimpsons'' and ''Super Troopers'' did.
*** It entered a lot of peoples' lexicon's after seeing it used in ''SouthPark''.
*** There are people who never watched any of those things and often use the word "shenanigans."
** It is also associated with ''The Economist''.
** I swear to God, I'll pistol whip the next guy who says 'shenanigans'!
** And, of course, nobody remembers the Andy Griffith episode where Gomer Pyle decided to make a citizens arrest on Deputy Fife by calling out, "I call shenanigans" on him, inspiring South Park's useage of the term...

* ''{{Doctor Who}}'' and the Ninth Doctor have together introduced (Although I have successfully restrained its use from becoming overbearing) the term "Fantastic!" into some fans' lexicon's.
** And the Tenth Doctor has been determined to do the same with "Allons-Y!"
*** [[CrowningMomentOfFunny Hilariously]] subverted in the Eleventh Doctor's first episode, where he bellows "WHO DA MAN?!" after saving the world, and declares he's "never saying that again" after a particularly awkward silence.
** Really? No mentions of "EXTERMINATE"?

** ''Keanu''? [[OlderThanTheyThink Say hello to Joey Lawrence]].
** Keanu is more remembered because of his [[DullSurprise delivery]].

* ''Trope'', from an obscure wiki dedicated to the conventions and devices in narrative of all forms.

* "Objection!" has become the signature phrase for LegalDramas.

* ''{{Homestuck}}'' seems to have popularized "rancorous". Also, "bluh bluh".

* "Leverage" from ''BattlefieldEarth''.

** And, for that matter, "aperture", "science", and "cake". Yeah. Portal was very, very good at this.

*** There are people who never watched any of those things and often use the word "shenanigans." SoYeah.

*** Cake? [[spoiler:"The cake is a lie" is the actual [[MemeticMutation meme]].]]

* [[VerbalTic Ending sentences]] with the word "yes", like [[{{Transformers}} Beast Wars]] Megatron.

* The movie ''Juno'' pretty much reintroduced the word "shenanigans" to the people who saw it.

** ThunderCats don't "Go," '''THUNDER CATS, HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!'''

** 'Shiny' always reminds this one of ''FinalFantasy VI'''s Gau.

* 'Et Cetera' from ''The King And I''.

* "Whoa", in the "expressing awe" sense rather than the "stopping a horse" sense, is associated with Keanu Reeves.

* [=~Wayne's World~=] managed this. Not.

* [[{{ptitle1d5irnza}} Smashing]]! Although, strangely, it never actually appeared in the film...
