"Show him some RESPECT!!" is something I catch myself saying a lot.

I used to make fun of my friend who said "How dare you!" saying that was a phrase only women and gay men use.

Dude, you are pretty bad at making fun of people.

Friend mentioned Rob Zombie.
Me: "You know that's not his real name? It's actually Robert Zombie."
After a long day at work...this made me laugh, out loud. Thank you.

I thought it was Montague Zombie?  Was that a different call?

Not a joke, but I sometimes say, "let's move forward." It's a useful strategy.

It wasn't a direct quote I don't think. I just use the idea alot. Jon used it for a blues musician once. I can't for the life of me remember who it was.

If I'm around people I don't know, like at party, I start talking about ICP and the Gathering of the Juggalos.

I taught my four year old nephew to say "jeepers-creepers." I also try to get him to say "hand-burger."

I tell people it's rude to compare other people to celebrities, appearance-wise.

I have several roleplay activities I do for a writing class I teach that involve the corporation "Radio Hut."

And I'm sure I've appropriated some other things--most probably the way I deliver my own little "jokes."

Great topic.



I can hear you judging me.

Even worse if any of your friends are gay men and/or ladies!

I was in Milwaukee today having lunch with some friends, and they knew the waitress.  She knew one of Gary Gygax's kids apparently, and that she had been to the Gygax house, and had seen him.  I said 'you can't unsee Gary Gygax'

It wasn't very funny, but i definitely thought of 8mm and Tom talking about it.  At least I had something to say.
Sounds like someone was working as a conduit for nature's natural vengeance.  Just like Jesus.  And some of the others.

I've gotten some comedic mileage out of a phrase I nicked from Tom. That phrase being:

If "ifs and buts" were candies and nuts, then we'd all have a HECK OF A CHRISTMAS!!

I find myself using Philly Boy Roy's "I doun't loike it" a bit too often.

I probably use "You don't ____ me, I ____ you" several times per day.

I've definitely adopted Tom's "Well, that's sick."

I'm sure there are many more.  I listen to a LOT of Best Show archives, so it all works its way into my personal lexicon eventually... you munch.

When discussing the Obama swearing incident with a co-worker, I referred to him as "our toilet-mouthed president."
I'll probably go into the wee hours.
