Ingrained responses

Along the quirky catch phrases lines....what things from movies do you tend to automatically throw into conversation without thinking? Things that are programmed into you when folks say a certain thing to prompt it. A couple I do that I can think of:

When people say "no way" I very often can't help but say "Yes way, Ted!"

When people ask questions like "why do I do....?" I often can't help answering "because you're an idiot" a la Heathers.

When people say "no way" I very often can�t help but say "Yes way, Ted!"

I usuall just think "Way."

The other day I had to stop myself from following up "Smooth move" with "...Ex-lax."

Heh just encountered one I have. It's always there, but I only thought of it once it happened. When someone says "i hate when that happens" my automatic response is "look, it's all over my bullets and everything!" Old taco shell commercial with bandito guys. Must be said in silly accent and all!

Similar stereotyping but it wasn't the same guy/character.

But I do quote El Guapo a lot as well whenever anyone uses the word "plethora"..."Would you say I have a...plethora...of pinatas?"

my python ingraned responses are..

if someone says "aaaaaaaaaaaaagh" i say, "the castle aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh??"

if i say the word "weirdo" i have to say it like they do in the�life of brian.

and of course, no one can resist a good swallow reference.

I was secretly hoping that I was the only one that remembered the Spin Doctors.� I should have known better.

Please... the Spin Doctors are so much better than I expected live... at least in the last couple of years... I really enjoyed their set at Last Fling in Naperville a couple years ago, they were easily the best of the weird 90s bands there... and they played a street festival last year and did a great job there too...� We often use "Biscuit Head" around my office too... we have variations on that, I get called "muffin head."� Heh!

Silly Spins.

When ever someone says "You know whats weird?"�I say "Nkyspa!"

I got�it from my friend, she'd say�"You know whats weird?" and I'd say�"Yes, but go on"� then she'd say "Nkyspa!"

(Nkyspa is spanky slit in the middle.� Apparently spanky is one of her many nicknames.)

And whenever someone says "Do what?" I have to say "Do wop!"

A lot of what I say is from being raised to be a super people pleaser.� If someone says they're sorry that I'm sick or whatever the immediate response is, "It's not your fault, I'm fine."� Or if someone wants to go do something late at night when I'm totally burned out, and said person is all like "are you to tired to go?"� I will always respond with "Oh no! I'm great, I'm not tired."� Anytime anyone asks if I want something to eat it's, "No, thank you, I'm not hungry."�
No matter what I'm always fine, I'm always wide awake, and I'm never hungry.� That's what I gained from living with my parents.

Whenever anyone asks me what I want, in any situation, I always say - A PONY!

Not that I really want one that bad, but it's a good answer...though, if you want to get me one, I'd prefer a purple one.� :)

When people ask me what I want my standard answer is "diamond earrings and a trip to Europe".� Drove my ex crazy 'cause he thought I was serious...

No that I don't want those but, ya know.

My dad does the same thing, but about the time you'll start to ask, he'll chime in his answer.� It's usually a number, like 42.� I found myself using it, but giving a date (October 10, 1955).� We're an odd bunch.

> Oh my God don't even get me started on the Rent lines. :)

so I'm *not* the only one. Last time a friend of mine decided to quote "Bond, James Bond" ... I ended up blurting "And pussy galore, In Person!"..

and the last time somebody was like "You came prepared!".. I,of course replied with "I was a girl scout once.. And a brownie.. until some brat got scared"

god bless you Jonathan Larson

along the same lines...

...no thanks, it's against my religion.

I ALWAYS say I'm trying to quit.

And if I'm giving someone something, I always say, "take two, they're small."

I don't usually wear a watch anymore so I tend to look at my bare wrist and then say "half past the freckle".

"did you just say parakeet?"

I love Marshie too...� "*cough cough* musta gotten a TOENAIL caught in my THROAT!"� don't know why, but I LOVE that!

"A peanut is neither a pea nor a nut"

"TRUE!"

I do the "bang!" as well.

oh, it so is :P

my jordanian co-worker was blasting arabic and hebrew rap yesterday. other co-workers commented that, to the untrained ear, arabic and hebrew sounds like complete and utter gibberish :P

did i tell you my co-worker story?

i always tell people, if they have a lint fuzzy or something, they had a schmutz.

so the other day my co-worker goes up to another co-worker�who had a fuzzy and goes "hey. you have a schmooz."

o.O

i recite movie and tv lines so much in ordinary convo that i barely notice it anymore. and sometimes i'll say an obscure one and when someone gets it it shocks the crap outtta me. let's see how many i can think of:

-from heathers: -when someone's complaining or something, i say "whats yer damage heather?" i noticed will said this on will and grace once; it ruled.

-when i'm having problems: "well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw!" (similarly, a la adam sandler: fuck me in the goat ass!")

-when im talking about the perceived grossness of something: "whats the upchuck factor on that?"

-lastly from heathers: (ya i love that movie), if i gotta be somewhere: "i gotta motor if im gonna be ready for..."

-from cheers: when someone asks what are you up to: "my ideal weight if i was 11 feet tall" (norm)

-from Ace Ventura: when someone contradicts me: "oh yeah? and yer ugly!"

-from the Outsiders: when someone mentions texas: �texas man, god� (the way matt dillon says it :)

-from Billy Madison: when it is hot out: �its too damn hot for a penguin to be just WALKIN around��

-from European Vacation: whenever someone says when in Rome�: �I said Rome, Rome not Paris. This is Paris and you're drunk.�

-once in class I started doing the billy madison thing: �No I will not make out with you. Did ya hear that? this girl wants to make out with me in the middle of class. You got Chlorophyll Man up there talking about God knows what and all she can talk about is making out with me. I'm here to learn, everybody, not to make out with you. Go on with the chlorophyll!� hahaha it was fun times. i know theres lots more but i can't think right now.

>It's hard to hear or read "9 times" without going into Ferris Beuller mode. I read it with the principal's voice in my head. If someone says it out loud I have to repeat it with his inflection.

Hahaha, YES!! See, its not so much the quote but voice intonation... when i hear "9 times" all i can picture is squirelly jeffery jones :)
