History Main / StopSayingThat

* The absurd challenges presenters are set on ''TopGear'', give Jeremy Clarkson a {{catchphrase}} that foreshadows them going [[EpicFail hilariously wrong]]. Sometimes he's called on it:

* ''Film/ThePrincessBride'': Count Rugen eventually yells this at [[TheDeterminator Inigo Montoya]] after he's cut and stabbed Inigo multiple times but [[TheDeterminator he keeps getting back up]] and repeatedly declaring "{{Hello}}! MyNameIsInigoMontoya! YouKilledMyFather. PrepareToDie."

* In the ''WebOriginal/AchievementHunter'' Let's Play of the game Mari0, Gavin said "Think with portals" a few times, prompting Micheal to say "SHUT UP! Stop saying that. Geoff is lying cold, dead in a ditch somewhere, and all you can think about is portals?"

* One character in the old ''{{Wendy}}'' comic keeps saying that [[RockBottom It Can't Get Any Worse]] ([it starts raining] "Okay, ''now'' it can't." [a lightning strikes them] "Okay, now...") while the other screams at her to stop saying it.

* ''TheSimpsons'' loves this:

* In Season 3, Episode 5 of ''GavinAndStacey'', Pam and Mick have this conversation about their son Gavin's low sperm count:

-->'''Agent Simmons''': One man, alone...\\
'''Leo''': Stop saying that!

-->'''Marinette''': You can�t reveal your identity just because ''I'' messed up so badly! It�s too important!
-->'''Chat''': But I ''want'' to! You don�t have to do this alone-
-->'''Marinette''': Why aren�t you ''listening'' to me?! It�s my mistake, and I have to face the consequences! You can�t help me, Chat!
-->'''Chat''': Yes, I can! You just aren�t letting me! This isn�t your fault! ''Let people help you'', Marinette!
-->'''Marinette''': No! No, I ''can�t''!

-->'''Marinette''': Because� because� Because it�s my fault! I need to take care of this! I have to be the one to take care of this!
-->'''Chat''': ''No'', you don�t!
-->'''Marinette''': ''Stop telling me that!'' Stop encouraging me! I�m just� I just� I�m ''stupid'' and I�m ''weak'' and I have to learn to accept the consequences when I mess up. So just ''let me deal with this, Chat''!

'''Man''': (''with German accent'') That is the rarest gummi of them all, the gummi Venus de Milo, carved by gummi artisans who were exclusively in the medium of gummi.\\

* From ''{{Friends}}'', the episode where Phoebe is a surrogate mother and gives birth to triplets, and the one they'd named after Chandler turned out to be a girl:

'''Thorny''': Yeah, his shenanigans are cruel and tragic.\\
'''Foster''': Which wouldn't make them shenanigans, at all, really.\\

'''Mac, Foster and Thorny''': Oh, no! (Laughing) (Mac hands O'Hagen his gun.)\\
'''Farva''': About Shenanigans, right?\\

'''Mac, Foster and Thorny''': Oh, no! (Laughing) (Mac hands O'Hagen his gun.)

* In the ''WebOriginal/AchievmentHunter'' Let's Play of the game Mari0, Gavin said "Think with portals" a few times, prompting Micheal to say "SHUT UP! Stop saying that. Geoff is lying cold, dead in a ditch somewhere, and all you can think about is portals?"

* ''GreysAnatomy''

* ''WhoseLineIsItAnyway'': The game "Two Line Vocabulary" ''loves'' this. Three people have to act out a scenario (improv) and one person (usually Colin) can say whatever he wants, while the other two can only use two lines. In the one with Whoopi Goldberg, her lines were "Have you thought it through?" and "that's impossible!"

* In ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', during the duel between Oberyn Martell and Gregor Clegane, Gregor responds this way after Oberyn loudly and repeatedly accuses him of atrocities against his sister Elia and her child. The scene is a ShoutOut to the above-mentioned climax of ''Film/ThePrincessBride''.

* [[TheBigBangTheory Penny]] asks Sheldon to stop saying "coitus" as it makes her (and everyone else, really) uncomfortable. Predictably, it doesn't stick.

* An episode of ''{{Frasier}}'' has Frasier prompt this line from Niles after repeatedly yelling "If I were, ''doctor'', you'd never know it!" in response to every accusation Niles makes towards him.
** ''{{Frasier}}'', "Give Him the Chair." [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T11Ndww4GGo#t=5m24s]]

* ''Film/ThePrincessBride'': Count Rugen eventually yells this at [[TheDeterminator Inigo Montoya]] after he's cut and stabbed Inigo multiple times but [[TheDeterminator he keeps getting back up]] and repeatedly declaring "Hello! MyNameIsInigoMontoya! YouKilledMyFather. PrepareToDie."

* ''RegularShow'': After Mordecai and Rigby rap about the food they're going to serve at their party in "Party Pete", Benson asks "Why are you guys yelling 'hummus'?"

* There was a ''KidsInTheHall'' sketch where a blue-collar worker got in trouble for saying the word "ascertain" at least once per sentence to the annoyance of his colleages. At the end of the discussion his boss says he's happy to have been able to "delineate this little problem," to which the worker wonderingly responds, "...''Delineate''... Don't worry, sir, you'll never hear that ''other'' word again," indicating this is an ongoing cycle.
