Whenever somebody says "What if the something-something was/were the friends we/they made along the way?", I say "In the sequel, I'm hunting for gold."

I've been saying "You're pulling me!" a lot in place of "You're pulling my leg!" or "No way!", after a one-time gag from Futurama where a mutated leg said the line. IDK how it got so ingrained in my head lol (I'll still say things like "No fucking way!" though).

I realize that I tend to find myself quoting a lot of the lines from "Albuquerque" by "Weird Al" Yankovic, but "Well, that's just great! How was I supposed to know that? I'm not a mind-reader, for crying out loud!" is one of my most frequent ones.

Also, variants of "You can't have that! That snorkel has been just like a snorkel to me!"

Cold turkey's getting stale. Tonight I'm eating crow.

"Well, SOMEBODY will like this." - When browsing a certain... uh, genre, of content, and coming across a category that I just can't see the sex appeal of.

  • Calling people "bub" or "pal" when I'm annoyed with them. "Punk" and "chucklenuts" are a step further. I tend to keep anything beyond that to myself.
  • *Cough* Snark *Cough*, particularly "*cough*bourgeois*cough*" when I see Conspicuous Consumption or anything else...well, bourgeois.
  • Really, "bourgeois" and other socialist terms creep in every now and then.
  • Not a vocal thing, but I often try to greentext on forums and Discord due to spending too much time on 4chan back in the day.

[up] I actually call people "pal" (or sometimes "buddy", "dude" or "man") when I'm annoyed with them, too.

Idk if this counts, but sometimes when I make a shitpost on any site, I'll top it with the caption "im sorry".

Oh, I believe in yesterday

I have too many quotes from the entire Homestar Runner canon to count by this point; there's a funny, catchy line for just about anything.

Like when I volunteer for a task, "I can do it! I will do it nine times!", or of course the immortal "no probablo!", oh and when something awesome happens in a show or game I use "what function key do I gotta press to make that happen again?" And countless others.

"I'm gonna go get my shoes."

It's more of a signal to my dogs that I'm ready for walkies. But they understand exactly what it means.

I've started saying "REAL" a lot in response to some very excellent takes from an online friend.

Whenever I say something like "you need to let it go, it's current year now" in response to someone acting like it's still 2008 or 2010 or 2018 or something I have the urge to also say "you need to let it go, the accident wasn't your fault."
