Whether it's sports or work or current events, my most common phrase has been....

Are you ####### kidding me?
I use this all the time with fantasy football and the end of Lions games.

My daughter and I often use the phrase “your mom”…..Even if it doesn’t make sense.

Wife: I fell alseep

Me: Your mom fell asleep

Daughter: Ohhhhhh followed by a British accent: You got absolutely wrecked

Wife: ☹️
 

Sometimes I let it go.

Wife: This has a lot of fat

Me: Your……
My daughter and I do this too except it's "your face" instead of "your mom".  I'm not crazy.

When I'm leaving work, going home from any sort of gathering, I say:

'I'm going to make like a baby and head out.'

I also say 'no worries; a lot

and 'Look at you!'

Also say 'I'm still breathing' when asked how's things going?  How you doing? etc
I mix them up:  I'm going to make like a tree and head out."  "I'm going to make like a baby and leave."

 
I subscribe to the Norm Crosby method of intentionally using the wrong words that are pretty close to the right ones.

'That's a big incision'....'

Law and Order SUV

I LOVE it when I'm corrected on them.

I hold steadfast.

Because them attempting to correct me is the punchline.

Can't go wrong with Seinfeld references. Anytime someone you know has a new girlfriend/boyfriend "Is that your new Schmoopie?


Sabertooth said:
“Oh good!”  When receiving bad news.  Said sarcastically.  

Text from a tenant - Oh Good!

Rodgers got COVID - Oh Good!

Wheel bearing goes - Oh Good!
I combine both of these.  Anytime something negative happens, my instinct reaction is "That's a shame..."

 
Me and a buddy have shtick we use on the regular.  For example, everyone is "My good friend" or "Our good friends".   That could include "Our good friends at Walmart" or "My good friend Kim Kardashian" dependent on the story we're telling.  

We also like to say, "you're not going to not..."  ripped from Stepbrothers when Brennan shows Dale the autograph on his samurai sword.  "You're not going to not get Randy Jackson's autograph."

 
What can I do for you?

No worries

I find my self saying this one on the Friday staff meeting and am sincere about it “thanks for fighting the good fight this week, we will do it again next week”

I like when they zoom by real fast only to get stopped by an obvious red light that I coast up to.

"Got to that red light reallll fast now didgent you?"
I love doing this. I just smile and give them a big over-exaggerated thumbs up and tell them how awesome they are.

don't think....just let it flow


Prostate probs?  If you turn the faucet on just a trickle and focus on the sound of the flowing water you might find the steam springs forth easier.  

 
At home whenever I'm the butt of a joke, "Jerk store called." To which my wife or daughters reply, "and they're all out of you."

 
Anytime someone is around with different color hair or very odd hair i break out the "Bllluuuee" from the progressive commercial.  Also happens whenever someone references anything that is blue.  

 
2 more I use a lot because of work:

-If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

-Smoke 'em if you got 'em.
Guy I work with is obsessed with this phrase and uses it at least 5 times a day I swear. 

"Hey Rich we're going to head over to X for lunch, be back in an hour". 

Rich: "Smoke em if you got em!" 

Us:  :confused:

I get that at times as well, which only encourages me to use it again as soon as possible.

Kids: Where's mommy?

Me: in the mommy aisle

Kids: Where's the scissors?

Me: in the scissors aisle

Anytime someone asks me where something or someone is: 

"No idea, not my day to keep up with it/him/her"
