Funnily enough, it's often "You Schweinebacke." Alternately, "Wahhhhh".

Usually it's a long, very sacrastic "Ooookay...".
And then there's also the long time favorite "Could someone pass me the vodka?".
Once enough has been passed, though not a real catch phrase, there are sentences that include 'strawberry', followed by 'Uh, I said something dirty'-laughter.

I think the closest I have to a "catch phrase" is the occasional dire proclaimation of "*shrug* I'm just that hardcore" when I claim to do something absolutely, ridiculously impossible.

Example.

me: I'm telling you, man, I drank like four times my weight last night
someone else: Nuh uh
me: Totally. Totally did.
someone else: You wouldn't be able to handle that
me: You don't know that. *shrug* I'm just that hardcore.

It depends on where I am...if I'm at work, it usually goes somethin like: "Eh, I'm just a SrA, wtf would I know?"

Elsewhere, I tend to go with: "Life's a bitch, [insert random phrase that has to do with the current subject]". Example: "Life's a bitch...then you get older and realize just how much of a bitch it is"

"What the gay" is my catch-all catchphrase for confusion or exasperation, "stay frosty" replaces goodbye, and recently, I've taken up saying "It's on like Donkey Kong."

Say it out loud. You'll have yourself a ball, I promise.

There's "Damn you, you faulty PEZ-dispenser-making bastards. Damn you all to HELL!" whenever I'm frustrated and "I blame television" when I'm not sure what caused something.

Also, this isn't a catch phrase, so much as it's something I say A LOT - "Did Drunk Commies get DEATed AGAIN?" - to which the answer is almost always a "Hell yeah".

There is also, "Carrying a flashlight like that can not be comfortable."

Catchphrase? Hmm....

I think "oops!" would be mine.


Wait... no...

My catch phrase:

"I loathe incompetence"

I use this, for instance, when I get home after stopping at McDonald's... and find that I was given a McTasty without cheese when I clearly ordered it with cheese.

OR... when they forget to add the ranch dipping sauce for the Chicken Selects... and yes, I had reminded the order-taker that I wanted ranch sauce with them.

The ones that are constant (said more or less the same way each time) are all borrowed, though I don't know all the sources-

From my Uncle: "What's up with your bad self?"

From a jazz instructor: "Oh yeah?" He would say it at random-especially if no one said anything.

From an old boss: "Sorry Bob" as a rejection. From another boss, "Starts with (), ends with () and rhymes with (word being implied)" for example (real one used by boss in the actual situtation) after being asked what's going on, "Starts with B, ends with T and rhymes with 'Bomb threat.'"

For the most part, though, people know it's me talking because of the way I phrase things. I don't know exactly where it comes from, it's kind of a sideways Groucho Marx kinda thing-if Marx where a California slacker. I can't really replicate it because for me it's just talking, so I don't know what everyone is able to pick out in what I say.


Also I use 'quality' to express approval. I'm sure I'm not the only one who does that but I don't know where I picked it up.

"Close enough for gummit work",
"Don't sweat the small shit" and
"Fast, Cheap, and Good -- pick two".

Oh and "Parts never killed a project".

I think those of you that work for a living should appreciate those.
