i like to say weird and obscure sayings in everyday conversations but im running low on ones i havent used so i need some ideas. the last one i discovered was "hit the bricks, pal" from watching Glengarry Glen Ross. it means get out of here i guess. post some ideas with their translations if its not obvious.

When I don't understand what some1 said, or if it is just confusing/outrageous. Instead of saying "What?" - I usually go with either "Touch me who?" or "What the huhhhhhhhhhh?" The more h's the better.

I've heard the phrase "Knocked Up" came from England and used to mean knocking on the door to wake someone up.

In an obscure reference from a family guy episode, I frequently say "show me potato salad!" in very very very obscure situations.

haha my freinds and i have done this one before. we all get it though.

Fantastic reference! I love it!

Show me potato salad!

Nice.


After a fart: "Did somebody on a duck?"

When sneezing, add a "ching" on the end instead of "choo". You know...AAAHHH-CHING!



I go with, "You did who to my what now?"

When you are arguing with someone and you tell them to "go pound salt".

I don't really know what it means though

I used to go with "ahhhh-sneeze!"

the looks you get are priceless.

When you get real pissed off and feel like yelling out all kinds of obscenities try yelling, "AHHH BOB SAGET!!!"

I haven't laughed that hard since I was a little girl.

I was crying and couldn't breathe, I was laughing so hard. Totally classic stuff.

oh man, that tourettes guy stuff is crazy

Look up "australian rhyming slang" on google. You'll get some interesting phrases that we use.

Dog and bone: Phone
Dead horse: Tomato sauce
Septic Tank: American (Yank)

If you've seen the movie "At Close Range" with Christopher Walken, there's a point when he turns to the group and says in all seriousness: "Just one thing here, you don't say nothing against the Family" -- it can work in certain situations, that is all

One of my friends makes pretty good money but occasionally dosen't bring enough cash when we go out. After he left one night, one of my other friends said, "What's with that guy, he's got short arms and deep pockets ."

I'd never heard that before and thought it was pretty funny. Maybe its from a movie or something, I never asked him.

Pretty old saying.

Its also in a GZA song IIRC.

I use "Bunch of savages in this town" pretty regularly, as well as the slightly obscure Ned Flanders "Son of a Diddly" from the "3 Stories" Simpsons episode....

nice. I have been known to use "dilly of a pickle," and "fozzy of a bear of a problem."

LOL!!

The cool new saying is 'What the bitch?' instead of 'What the fuck?'

I have actually said out loud "Oh My God What the F*ck Bar B Que"

Another Walken line that I enjoy is from the movie Pool Hall Junkies.

"How much you got, Joe?!"

Only really works if you try to do a walken impression while saying it.



One that's not a line from a movie that I really enjoy is this.

Instead of saying "Are you serious?"

you say, "Are you cereal?"

It always makes the other person take a step back.


oh, also a good one from seinfeld is to say "That's ridicurous!" instead of "That's ridiculous!"

LMAO.. Nice.

I probably have some, but I can't think of what.


I know Brigette sometimes says "Fuckin BitchShit".

Sometimes I pull out the "Exsqueeze me? Baking powder?" from Wayne's World

serious question.

Do you find it hot when she swears?

LMAO... Maybe if she didn't do it so often... but seriously she finds places to put the word fuck you wouldn't even believe. I mean... just completely unneccesary places, lol.

Ill have to go easy on this one.... heres a couple




In the middle of a story, include "so there I was with one thumb in my mouth, and one up my a**, switching them every five minutes"


When burned on the hand/finger by something, say "didnt take me long to turn loose of that"... afterwards say "Im gonna have to go home and stick this incider"


If using a dull drill bit in wood, tell anyone watching "You can tell the quality of a drill bit by the color of the smoke it produces..."



When discussing money and investments, comment that "I used to have a lot of money, but I lost it all by investing in houses and lots". When the unsuspecting target says something about that being a sound investment, tell him that they were "WhoreHOUSES and LOTS of them"


After someone lets a loud fart, say "Choke that damn thing next time and it'll probably start!"



When someone is about to do someting stupid, like jumping a ramp on a motorcycle, tell them "Its like swallowing a gut... better not stop until you get to the end"

ok, I hear ya. I feel the same way. Girls who swear all the time actually disgust me.

But if a normally clean-mouthed girl lets the occasional expletive fly, it kinda turns me on...

Thank you. I have a new addiction.

From now on when I get sucked out on I won't be saying "That's poker." It will be: "Well that's what happens when Alex Trebek has a picture of a giraffe in his ass, during an earthquake."

When I get confused or don't hear someone I'll occasionally pull out the Will Smith "rrRRRR?" think he did from "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air"

When explaining something, end with "Don't ya know" like Bobby's mom used to do in "Bobby's World"

That proves that isn't made up, no one in their right mind could write that **** down, that's just spontaneous craziness.

On a hot day I have heard/said... "I'm sweating like a hen hauling wood."

Instead of referring to a sheila as "flat chested" you can say she's "flatter than piss on a plate."

Also, one I like to say because nobody else EVER catches the reference (and I'm demented) is when somebody tells me something, I will shoot back with...

"Liar, give me back my shoes." Sometimes I will carry it a step further by adding, "Aah, if I could only touch her brow."

Major props to anyone who gets this reference - minus those who have read it in the original Army Thread.

Have fun, cowboy.

When someone is annoying or getting all worked up I like to say:

Oi with the poodles already

I don't say ridiculous. It's ricockulous.

Or go Stewie-style and say "what the deuce?!?"


Instead of "thank you", I like to say "spank you", even to strangers. They'll usually say "you're welcome...." then give you a weird/questioning look when they realized you might have said "spank".


Stealing this one from "Pooty Tang", when someone says something like "man..it's hot out.." I'll say, "yea, and it's hot too!"
Or if they say "look at her ***!" I'll add "yea...she's got a nice *** too!"
People will hate you for this, but I'm ok with that.


"Go play a game of hide and go f-ck yourself!" is always a fav.


I'm done....

fryer reminded me of a frequent one we use. usually something like, if the waitress delivers a pint of beer, someone will remark "wow, that is big and frothy," followed by someone else "yeah, and that's a nice-looking pint too."

its definitely overused, but occasionally hilarious.

"how about a nice tall glass of shut the **** up juice!" is another favourite. the "juice" seals it.

Two of my favorite sayings I heard when I was in England:

1. "Carrots, Peas, and Mashed potatoes, yeah?"

2. "Fucking Lollypop"


Both of those had me cracking up. Our guide seemed to love saying the first one. The second one was heard during a soccer game.

Instead of saying "bye" or "see ya" we'll say "big gulps....." then leave.



If you don't get this referance, you should punch yourself in the face.

In a fit of joy or excitement...:

TITTIES AND BEER!

When you are playing poker and you overbet your hand and then lose the pot you should say "Son of a god damn *****" and then.... "these people always call when i don't have anything"

Fun thread - makes me giggle.

I'll post my own favorites later, I have to think about that for a while and I'm headed to bed at the moment.

A great source for entertaining obscure phrases:

western lingo

Enjoy! I found it when working on a western-themed convention.

You can stuff your sorries in a sack

My friends and I use that all the time. I'm also a big fan of "When in Rome" at various moments of conversation ala Anchorman.

Although most of this board is probably too young, I enjoy rehashing a ton of sayings from the movies "Slap Shot"

they brought their toys!

Quotes from that movie make up 1/2 the words I say in any given day....

Sorry I'm late, did someone say Slap Shot?

<-------------------- Slapshot is awesome.
