“Ankle.” You know, ew-scray. Take a run-off powder. On the lam. Put an egg in yer show an’ beat it.
Oops, the egg goes in your shoe, not your show. It’s the Big Butter & Egg Men who put the simoleons in your show.
Don’t you mean am-scray?
[Archie Goodwin] Simoleons? Why if I had that kind of dough, dollface, I’d sit up all night and watch it! [/Archie Goodwin]
::koee ducks and skedaddles::
Psst, Eve. You know that “ew-scray” translates as “screw”?

I’ve also been looking for an excuse to use this old one (slightly modified).

“After awhile, pedophile!”
I knew a guy in highschool (1997-2000) who genuinely used the phrase “gee-whiz”. Genuinely. As in not ironic at all. It was an actual, unconcious part of his vocabulary.
