Catch Phrases



I said this yesterday to a friend about a piece of fiction. And it made me remember an entire summer that this was the family catch phrase. I'm sure tons of folks do it (do it) but that was the year my family member was sent to Iraq. This movie came out right before he was deployed. It became an ice breaker, laugh maker and the day he left we sent him off with tons of hugs and kisses and about sixty thousand "Do it"'s.

And what do we say to each other most mornings when we part for the day?



(4:04) Habanahdah!

I love catch phrases. I love to learn the ones that other folks use. Share if you like. Share, share, share! Cause I'm nosy.

hahaha! I love these - they may find a way into my family too. We have several of these.
We don't have instructions, we have "destructions" (more appropriate around here anyway).
We don't get hypnotized, we get hyptonized.
And the code phrase in public for "get me outta here" which is "I think not." It stems from this joke, the only one that hubby ever remembers::
It is a popular theory that Rene Descartes (the French philosopher known for his statement "I think, therefore I am") died quite mysteriously. This is not the case at all. One day, while dining in a cafe, Descartes was approached by his waiter who asked if he might like an aperitif. Descartes pondered this a moment, replied "I think not" and vanished without a trace.
Yeah - we're a laugh-riot at parties, really. lol
