Mine is: "Don't be a don't be, be a do be, scooby doobie do!"

Mine is....spam.

"Do it for/Think of the Children".... :rolleyes:

hmmmm......apparently i say 'how rude!' or 'that's just rude!' quite a lot

It's always in the last place you look...

Think about that one.

"If your parents never had sex, chances are you won't either."

An oldie but a goodie!

"It is what it is"

Usually I say it when I can't really explain something even when I try to talk it through, particularly in drunken discussions with my friends. Really pointless statement, but I've fallen into the habit of using it.

"Same difference"

"Moo Cow".

No idea, really.

"shit happens" is really annoying.

"have a nice day"-no one has meant that in years.

"meh"....induces almost instant rage for me.

"guesstimate" is really annoying. You can guess and you can make an estimate. People must be bored so they have to sit around and make up new words.

Not as annoying as 'edutainment'. Neither the word nor the action are witty, educating or entertaining.

1. Especially on a car bumper. I just want to ram right into it...

2. I rarely say that, but when I do I mean it. Or I don't mean it and it's obvious I don't.

3. Luckily to avoid your wrath, I use it's bastardized form, "neh".

my fav saying is "freedom's just another word for nothing left to do" from the Grateful Dead's version of me and bobby mcgee


the single phrase that makes me go into a seeing-red rage is "touch base" or lets touch base etc..... IT DRIVES ME NUTS! at first it was just mildly annoying until i had a teacher who said it EVERY DAY! EVERY DAMN DAY!!!!!

I WANTED TO HIT HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!STRANGGLE tHE MUTHERF*@%IN LIFE OUT OF HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

*ahem*

1. Especially on a car bumper. I just want to ram right into it...

There are some good bumper stickers. I especially liked a political one I saw.
"I'll hug your elephant is you kiss my ass." I really cracked up on that one.

my fav saying is "freedom's just another word for nothing left to do" from the Grateful Dead's version of me and bobby mcgee

Isn't it "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose"?

"Oh, you're home then!" errr yes!!

or

"Where do you think you are going?" Nowhere. I Know I'm going to the toilet!!

Or my favourite one

"What time do you call this then?" errrr Marjorie?

"There's no 'I' in team!"

Yeah, well, there's a "me" in there! *gaah!*

Mine is "More haste and less speed make Jack a dull boy".

I say it and it confuses people rather a lot, but it makes sense for me because I always whizz through things speedily.

"Prioritize."

Since when did priority become a verb?

Another one:

"I always give 110%"

Nonsense. It's impossible to give more than 100%, and it's rarely possible to give anything even remotely close to that.

"Children will be children"

I'm a complete and total pacifist, but anytime a person (normally a mother with the firm conviction that her duty to society was fullfilled by popping her malicious offspring into the world and that everybody should continuously be congratulating her for enriching our lives with her destructive, dirty, loud, offensive, arrogant brats, and who can in no way be bothered to look after them when they are having fun emptying other people's shopping bags in an overcrowded bus) that sentence makes me consider the positive aspects of any kind of explosives...

As W.C. Fields reported said, "Anyone who hates children can't be all bad." ;)

"That which doesn't kill you only makes you stronger." I guess I'll have some more ice cream then. It hasn't killed me yet, so it must be making me stronger.

I used to think that the posters that said "There's no I in TEAM" were up in the gym because the gym teachers were so stupid that they spelled it Tiim or something like that.

There are some good bumper stickers.
I want a bumper sticker that says this:
Free Tibet!

Well-thank you for your consideration. :D

Not to be a dick but the quote is "anyone who hates dogs and children can't be all bad" now what contemptable scoundral stole the cork from my lunch?

I agree. Shit Happens is way overused. Everybody knows now that shit is happening. We no longer need to mention it.

My favorite is probably- "Not in the face! NOT IN THE FACE!" Seems to come in handy a lot.

If your children kill you, then you can't be very good parents.

I was editing. ;) Besides, I LIKE dogs! :)

When in danger or in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout.

I LIKE dogs! :)

So do I! Lets exchange recipies!

Though I understand completely, you may want to pour a tall one now and take some time out.

Well, I do own a Chinese cook book entitled, "101 Ways to Wok Your Dog." :eek:

I told that one to my mom just now and she thought it was hilarious. She doesn't much like teachers.

I'm married to a former teacher. Believe me, the feeling is mutual.

"There's no 'I' in team!"

There is an "I" in WIN however.

I don't hate all teachers. Just English teachers, Social Studies teachers, and Gym teachers.
