Do you have sayings or habits that you just keep on repeating? I'll confess
to the following on a daily basis:

-in my wintry, ice-covered driveway, I always say to my daughter:" HOLD ON
ROBIN! 180 DEGREE BAT-TURN!", then gun the throttle and do a 180
spin...(Adam "Batman" West)

-when we leave in the car to go anywhere I always say "Let's ROLL, KATO!"
(Green Hornet") on the return trip it's "HOME, JAMES!"

-when I get frustrated I wipe my face with my hands like Curly does and do
the WOO WOO WOO bit

-when working on something in deep concentration often do Curly's "La da
dee" sounds

-yell "SHUT UP & GO TO SLEEP"..several times last night to my old dog and
my wife..who were taking turns "sawing down the forest" by the sounds of it!
(Moe)

-Well Aren't You The Treat Of The Week!"(sarcastically...Mike Bullard,
Canadian talk show host)

-"Come In! Everything Else Has Gone Wrong Today!" (sign posted on my Aunt's
front door since the '50's!)

Maybe TV finally has taken over my life? (Actually it's OCD at work..."I was
born this way! What's your excuse?")

My own personal favorite is "remind me to moidah you!" When saying goodbye
to a friend, I generally use this instead of "ta-ta," "seeya later," "so
long" or any other silly expressions.

I to this day still say "Who came in?" whenever someone starts of a sentence
with "Gentlemen...".

This has got me into trouble many times during Important Meetings with our
clients at work. I must stop and explain and I'm usually answered with
sanctimonious grunts and/or blank looks.

Never trust anyone who doesn't like the Stooges.

R. stated:

No, I don't. But I don't want to hear it since I've heard enough gump
from your lips to last me a few months, at least! :-)
When are you going to get a toupee with a nicer mouth attached?

When I no longer have to deal with pretentious censors who try to impress women
by knocking me when I state how dirty humor would denigrate the memory of the
Stooges.

Stephen, I can't believe it!!! I do the same thing with this one! Little Sean
will say, "Ma, where goin'??" and I'll say, "Home, James!" and he'll say, "NO!
Me go swings!" (interpretation of going to the park).

hehehe.....kids, gotta love em......

P.S. Sean cracks up when I go "JOHNSON!"

leave....I'm the first to leave since I am part time......."Good afternoon
Ladies! Oh, and you too, Joyce!"

LOL,

I'd say your parents are A-O-K...I'd watch Plan 9 over Star Wars any day..

Another popular sci-fi for quotes is "The Day The Earth Stood Still"..

-Gort! Klaatu barada nikto!
: (Helen tells Gort the Robot that Klaatu has problems from drinking the
local water)just kidding..a scary scene where she is almost killed by the
robot...It was a temporary password in a secured munitions depot in Toronto
(military). I ran into the area in error and faced being shot if I didn't
reply with those 4 words!

-"I find it works well enough to get me from one planet to the next.": I've
said this line a few times at police safety road checks..it always raises an
eyebrow...

Yes I've used that line at important meetings..one group looked at me
strangely but the head honcho (a high exec from "Honda"'s head office in
Japan no less) broke out laughing yelling "Awww Three Stewwwwgis!
Ichibahn!*)

I don't have anything that I like to repeat all the time. I'm just not into
being self-repeitive. But I have way too many favorite Stooge catchphrases to
name! ;)

Sometimes my Mom likes to say, "Drop the gun to the floor Tanna"! That's a
quote from the infamous B-Movie Plan 9 From Outer Space!
