“A whaaaaaat?” - in a whiny voice, after Hooper advises the local yokels on the dock that the shark they caught is not a mako, as they suspect, but a tiger shark. (_Jaws_) Slays 'em every time. ---

All these, and more. Lately I’ve taken to saying “I dunno” with an odd accent that I can’t place, and I’m not sure where I picked it up from. But I expect I got it from somewhere. ‘Clam Chowder’ - from the Simpsons, the conflict between the waiter and the junior Quimby. “Say chowdah!” “Chow-dair.” ---

Everytime the situation arises where I have to say “It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again,” I find myself trying to sound like Ted Levine. ---

I’m a little worried- how often does this situation arise? 😉 And I forgot; Well, excuuuuuuuuuse me! And: “Wha happ’n?”- like Fred Willard’s character in _A Mighty Wind_ ---

“Me so horny. I love you longtime.” [nelson]Haw haw![/nelson] “Dy-no-mite!” “Hi-ho, Kermit the Frog here.” “Ni!” “Khaaaaaaaaaaaaan!” “Nanoo nanoo!” along with “Shazbut!” “We represent the Lollipop Guild” and the obligatory “I’ll get you my pretty, and your little dog too.” “Da-hilk!” (my best attempt to spell Goofy’s laugh) (back to work) ---

Inconceivable! Also: “bad” pronounced as “beeyad”. My ex-roommate used to scold her odious little dog by shaking her finger and saying in a high pitched voice “Beeyad! Beeyad girl!” My boyfriend and I often torture each other with this and then laugh hysterically. Maybe you had to be there. ---

My fiance and I always say “sewauce or su-awce” in a bad New Jersey accent. We need more barbecue sewauce. Sunday SUNDAY Sunday!!! After “the new phonebook is here” is “I’m _somebody!_” and then usually, “all I need is this chair”. I don’t even like that movie that much. 😃 We tend to mispronounce words, like on street signs to get each other to laugh: Chouteau Street becomes Ch-oh-ew-tee-ay-ew S-tah. ---
