Catch Phrase of the Century

Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share (MPSIMS)
#1

What is your vote for the most over-used catch phrase of the century?

Before you all say “Is That Your Final Answer?”, remember the classics like “Where’s the Beef?” and “You Bet Your Bippy!”. Or step into the (way!) Wayback Machine to dredge up “Twenty-three Skidoo!!” or “'Tain’t Funny McGee!”

Somewhere out there in the ether is a moldy sound byte that will go down in history as the one-liner that defined the 20th century; Vote Early, and Vote Often!!

If I hear “…of the millennium,” “the new millennium,” or any phrases containing the word “millennium” again I will run barking into the streets.

So do you think that next year, we’ll have to endure the whole millennium hype again for those of us who can count? Or will advertisers just lay it to rest?
