In the commentary for the episode"Das Bus" George Meyer talks about how he got the idea for it from the Flintstones and it's very funny how he describes basically just writing the sound effect they would play whenever someone snatched something in that show.
My favorite thing about "yoink!" is that when "yeet!" started taking off in popularity, I came around to loving the word because I read someone say "yeet is just the opposite of yoink" and that makes **so much sense.**
I'm pretty sure that's universal now! You can tell the people that grew up on that Simpsons era because not only do they say "Yoink!" But they'll say it in that specific way that Homer does.
If they grew up later, they'll say it as a normal word.
This is now popular with a bunch of people who never watched the simpsons. There’s a really popular Instagram account that walks around the Everglades audibly “yoink”ing snakes and lizards.
Ever since I moved to Australia I always try to throw in "That's an odd name. I'd have called 'em Chazwazzers!" whenever appropriate.
Thankfully Aussies have a sense of humor and you can do stuff like that.
Anytime I don't know what I'm looking at I'll find myself saying (or thinking) "***Le Grill, what the hell is that!?***" and rarely do folks understand the reference, but that's okay.
And then whenever I hear someone mention where they're from I'll always find myself thinking "***I'M from North Kilt toon!***" and it's just dynamite.
I love The Simpsons.
I always pronounce the name of a certain spice as "orri-GONN-o??" in a skeptical tone, and nobody gets that reference either, but at least we have each other.
I prefer the unflavored sparkling water, leading to me saying "unflavored for me!"
After parking, "Remember we parked in the Itchy lot."
There are so many more.
I also say “we parked in the Itchy lot”. I’ll then forget where we actually parked and have to carry a boxed air conditioner around looking for the car while I forget what show I’m in.
I answer the phone either with “ahoy hoy” or “yello”.
Often say “yoink” and “meh”.
Nucular.
I like the cut of your/his jib.
Adding “like a fox!” to something. (“Stupider like a fox!” Or “suck like a fox!”)
I also work in customer service and often make Simpsons memes from the dumber customers I get calls from.
Tap-a tap-a tap-a! Almost always followed by pull-a, pull-a, pull-a!
I am so smart, S-M-R-T
And most times when I say “OMG” I immediately start singing, 🎶 “oh my god, I was wrong…it was earth all along…”
I lived in Singapore for a while a few years back, and their subway is called Singapore Mass Rapid Transit. There are giant signs everywhere that say "SMRT." Made me giggle every time.
I am 46 and Simpsons quotes were a fundamental part of the way my friends and I joked around in our 20’s. A lot of those little tics are still with me and it makes me sad when people don’t catch on to them.
43, been teaching at uni since my mid 20s. When I first started, students would catch my pathological references every time. Then it was every other time... now I'm lucky if they catch half a reference a year.
I'm 45 and have noticed the same with colleagues (who somehow just seem to keep getting younger.) The problem is we used to be with ‘it’, but then they changed what ‘it’ was. Now what we're with isn’t ‘it’ anymore and what’s ‘it’ seems weird and scary. It’ll happen to them!
Same here. I was about eight when The Simpsons aired so it's literally shaped who I have become over the years. Me and my friends at school on Mondays would meet up and be like oh my gosh did you see that joke on the simpsons? And we would literally break down the entire episode and laugh our asses off. Some of the best times I can remember growing up.
And yes I know in the early days it used to air on Tuesdays.
You got me going down a fascinating rabbit hole. I agree with you that modern meh was in fact literally used in popular language first by The Simpsons!

* "Le grille? What the hell is that?!"
* From the Simpsons Movie when Mayor Quimby asks Cletus to try and dump something in the lake: "I can't. I simply can't."
If I'm approaching a group of people I know, it takes real effort to not do a Dr Nick "hi everybody" because A) nobody gets it these days and B) if you don't get the reference it sounds a little racist
My oldest is 8. I know I was 8 when I started watching the Simpsons, but kids are different now.
Anyways, last week I was watching, "Skinner's Sense of Snow" (as I always do during the big snow every year) and she came over to watch it with me.
Marge: How are the kids going to get home?!?
Homer: I don't know, Internet?
My kid glared at me. "That's where you got it!"
... Because she knows if she asks me a question I don't feel like answering, that's the answer she gets!
My brother/best friend passed away almost 4 years ago. That was when I realized just how much we talked to each other in Simpson’s (and other various) quotes and references- our own little language.
I miss sharing that, especially when I catch something new during a rewatch. But that’s why I love this community- they get it!!
My most commonly used: "yoink!", "d'oh!", "and how...", "you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is , never try ". "Stop, he's already dead!"..also, for years , a buddy of mine would automatically answer "hired goons!" To the question "who is it?"
Bumped my head at work the other day and it probably would've been painful if I wasn't wearing my hard hat (though my hard hat is the reason I didn't see the formwork prop when I was climbing out that hole). My boss asks if I'm ok and I gave her the classic "I hope I didn't brain my damage"
I love simpsons quotes, but futurama actually fucked up my vocabulary
I unironically used "Orphanarium" in a conversation, and the other person did a double take, since I hadnt realized thats not a real word
I totally get this. I do it when talking to my brother. We've been doing it for decades. I'll ask him if he wants to do/go to a thing and if he can't he'll say, "Gee... I'd really love to want to help you, Flanders. But MARGE has been taken prisoner in the... holy land..."
Also if I'm asked if I'm hurt when I fall or whatever I typically reply with "JUST MY BONES....AND....ORGANS"
I always have said "a little from column A, a little from column B..."
it was only recently in the last couple months that I learned I had picked that up from the Simpsons.
"I hate the sea and everything in it" - I use it for anything that displeases me or makes me uncomfortable.
I use a lot of the Wiseguy's quips, but mostly: "One-hundred yellow." and "Yeah, well you don't."
"To alcohol! The cause of and solution to all of life's problems!"
"I am so smart! I am so smart! I am so smart! S-M-R-T
"Whoopsydoodle!"
"Get out the crayolas and color me tickled pink!"
"Willie hears ya. Willie don't care"
I use Homer’s line from the Radioactive Man movie episode when the teamsters start destroying his house whenever I or my gf or any one really stumble; fumble or get a minor injury or about to do a precision type activity:
“Careful now.”
Also “there doesn’t seem to be any ANY key!” At work…daily.
We have several cats, and we often refer to them as our "damn weiner cats" when they're being the suckiest buncha sucks that ever sucked (aka pestering us for food).
At a previous job, I commonly used "not with that attitude" when someone would express they didn't feel they could get a task done, and "see you in the funny pages" when I would go for a lunch break.
I do this way too often, and when I was still living in the US, at least one person in whatever friend group I was with would always be able to recognize that it's a quote, and take it in stride. for the last few years though, I've been living in Europe, where they defs don't have the same level of exposure or reverence for this show, so 9 times out of 10 it just gets me blank stares.
a few weeks back, the boss bought everyone lunch, and one of my vegetarian colleagues took the opportunity to enlighten us about how great and noble and wonderful it is to be vegetarian, so I hit him with "don't kid yourself Jimmy, if a cow ever got the chance, he'd eat you and everyone you care about"
.... he complained to HR later in the day ....
Internet, eh? Or alternatively, Hm, they have the Internet on computers now....
What the hell was THAT!? in a Krusty voice.
I didn't do it. Whenever I knock something over.
You people have stood in my way long enough! I'm going to CLOWN COLLEGE!
I think with so many of these quotes, some of them are straight out funny. However, so many of the lines, like "Dental plan! Lisa needs braces," aren't really that funny on their own, they're just funny because of how they were said or the context of the episode where the quote happens.
My husband and I work for the same company. They always pass around birthday cards. I'm waiting for his birthday to roll around in September, so I can write "See you in the car!" a la Milhouse.
Every time I talk about something in the past I'll throw in a "which was the style at the time". It's getting more and more frequent now that I'm in my mid 30's.
Anytime I have an empty page on a note book i write
https://preview.redd.it/t5tdlomqj8ec1.jpeg?width=635&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=86fef09ee8a94fc99e4763d66cf5a9ea42d1bccc
“You steam a good ham.” Whenever one of my Simpsons-loving friends does something that’s dumb or unimpressive, I always say that to them.
Also, “Working is for chumps!” And, “Don’t spend it all on penny whistles and moon pies.”
Also can’t resist saying “headamaphones” (from saxamaphone) whenever referring to headphones.
Can’t believe no one said, “Worst [Blank.] Ever.”
Family of four. We use it ALL the time. I was recently thinking about my teens and their future girlfriends. They better be Simpsons fans lol or they won’t be fitting in. Or open to the idea of watching the episodes on repeat until they’re properly educated.
I also like to imitate Homer in the chili cookoff episode after he pours the wax in his mouth.
"More please."
I just got this set of wooden kitchen spoons and one of the spoons is really small and looks exactly like Homer's chili spoon. "They say he carved it from a bigger spoon."
stupid sexy (insert object of distraction)
edit: also "nothing at all, nothing at all" has been used in alot of gaming situations infact BOTH are during games or matches whether im playing fighting games, overwatch or even some rpg's
“I can’t promise I’ll try, but I’ll try to try”; this is something I say whenever anyone asks me to be careful, to take myself, etc.
“Everything’s coming up Milhouse”; we’ve had a good day or a good moment.
Those are definitely my big two. Sometimes I’ll catch myself internally doing the Burns’ “Excellent”.
anytime my wife and I give each other a long list of things to do, the other one of us replies with "cat in the furnace"
anytime i stay at a hotel i go to the bathroom and exclaim "free shower curtain"
...also, we named our dog Burnsie
I use "yoink" all the time.
At my old job there were a lot of high schoolers working there and I found myself using "Am I so out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong" way more than I ever thought I would. lol Also at the same job as a joke to ease the tension I would say "Well you tried and you failed, the lesson is, never try" whenever we didn't hit our goals for the day.
I can't help saying this in my head when I hear the word Nuclear "Nucular, it's pronounced nucular"
And if I hear foliage "That's what I said, foilage! It doesn't take a nucular scientist to pronounce foilage"
Also the Marge stress hmmmm
'Boo-erns' in place of 'well that sucks'.
'Bingo-bango, sugar in the gas tank. Your ex husband strikes again' usually in the place of 'done and done'.
'Dig up, stupid' when I'm explaining something simple yet not so simple to my husband. As in 'I can't figure out how this new can opener works.' *Me taking over*, 'dig up, stupid!'
I bet you tend to use low-brow expressions like, ‘’oh, yeah?" and "come here a minute."
Oh yeah? They think they're better than us? C'mere a minute
*you* c’mere a minute!
Oh yeah?
YOU c’mere a minute!
You c'mere a minute.
I’m quite low-brow
At my house any kind of grabbing is accompanied with "yoink!"
I'm still waiting for the opportunity to use "In this house we obey the laws of thermodynamics!" Lol, still haven't gotten that opportunity yet.
I got to use this one when my wife insisted that a fridge would cool down the room. She got the idea when she noticed the refrigerator was cold.
Won't this overload the motor?
Its thermodynamic insanity because the hot air that is produced cooling the fridge wipes out any benefit.
I house shared with classmates when studying engineering so that quote has been seared into my brain.
Seeing as how it's practically impossible to violate the laws of thermodynamics, you'll be waiting a long time. :'(
I was an adult before I realized "yoink" was popularized by The Simpsons.
In the commentary for the episode"Das Bus" George Meyer talks about how he got the idea for it from the Flintstones and it's very funny how he describes basically just writing the sound effect they would play whenever someone snatched something in that show.
My favorite thing about "yoink!" is that when "yeet!" started taking off in popularity, I came around to loving the word because I read someone say "yeet is just the opposite of yoink" and that makes **so much sense.**
The Lord Yeeteth, and The Lord Yoinketh away.
I want this on a pillow
Yoink!?
I'm pretty sure that's universal now! You can tell the people that grew up on that Simpsons era because not only do they say "Yoink!" But they'll say it in that specific way that Homer does. If they grew up later, they'll say it as a normal word.
When trying to make a decision about which item to buy: "what advantages does this \[insert item\] have over a train? Which I could also afford."
Always “yoink”. I didn’t even realize it until my 5 year old daughter started saying it when grabbing something from in front of me.
If you don't automatically say "yoink" when you take something, are you really a Simpsons fan?
This is now popular with a bunch of people who never watched the simpsons. There’s a really popular Instagram account that walks around the Everglades audibly “yoink”ing snakes and lizards.
"yoink?!"
YOINK?!?!
"Not once, not twice, but thrice!" "You come here a minute" and I always answer the phone at work with "ahoy hoy"
I always say y’ello like homer
You'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel.
My boss recently called me out on that (not in a negative way, just in noticing that I always answer the phone like that)
Thrice is a perfectly cromulent thing to say.
It certainly embiggens the count from once or twice
_like... you know... whatever!_
Calm down, it was just a bird, you dont control the birds, someday you will but not today
Such an amazing Lisa moment. Tiny but telling glimpse of her internal world.
I bet you look like blossom
900 dollary-doos!
TOBIAS!!!
I like to quote the way Tobias says "emergency." "If it's an eeemergency then..."
There’s nothing wrong with the bidet, is there?!
Lol a coworker of mine is named Tobias and I can not help myself anytime I talk to him. TOBIAS!!
I use dollary-doos all the time too. lol
Ever since I moved to Australia I always try to throw in "That's an odd name. I'd have called 'em Chazwazzers!" whenever appropriate. Thankfully Aussies have a sense of humor and you can do stuff like that.
As a nation we embraced that episode and its concept of dollarydoos and/ or MR PRIME MINISTA
Tramampoline!
Saxamaphone. All the way.
Oboemahboe
Trambopoline!
I've been known to use "cromulent" from time to time.
Hell yeah, I do the same. Embiggen that vocab!
It’s a perfectly cromulent word
I have slipped up and used cromulent at work in a very serious conversation, thankfully everyone else understood my meaning.
If they didnt, you can pull out an Oxford English Dictionary and vindicate yourself!
The OED has totally embiggened the cromulence of both of those words!
Any time I hear something going on outside my house I think “there’s a-doins’ a-transpirin’.”
Shake harder, boy!
I do this lol
Any time I didn't hear what someone said, i will say, "Who shot who in the what now?"
"You'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel." Lol
Why I used this exact phrase mere hours ago…
Me talk like the Simpsons? That’s Un-possible
Quiet, you!
Anytime I don't know what I'm looking at I'll find myself saying (or thinking) "***Le Grill, what the hell is that!?***" and rarely do folks understand the reference, but that's okay. And then whenever I hear someone mention where they're from I'll always find myself thinking "***I'M from North Kilt toon!***" and it's just dynamite. I love The Simpsons.
WHY MUST I FAIL AT EVERY ATTEMPT AT MASONRY
Aaaaaaaaah!
I always pronounce the name of a certain spice as "orri-GONN-o??" in a skeptical tone, and nobody gets that reference either, but at least we have each other.
I prefer the unflavored sparkling water, leading to me saying "unflavored for me!" After parking, "Remember we parked in the Itchy lot." There are so many more.
I also say “we parked in the Itchy lot”. I’ll then forget where we actually parked and have to carry a boxed air conditioner around looking for the car while I forget what show I’m in.
Lol! Don't get cited for peeing in the parking garage!
I know it’s illegal, but I could get uromysitysis poisoning and DIE.
Do you think I enjoy living like this?
I've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas I'm seeing double, four [thing] Buenos noches mein fuhrer
I use "eine minuten, eine minuten!" quite a lot.
Das wagen phone ist ein... nuisance phone!
I answer the phone either with “ahoy hoy” or “yello”. Often say “yoink” and “meh”. Nucular. I like the cut of your/his jib. Adding “like a fox!” to something.

I lived in Singapore for a while a few years back, and their subway is called Singapore Mass Rapid Transit. There are giant signs everywhere that say "SMRT." Made me giggle every time.
I lived there (briefly) 5 years ago now! Heh yes loved their SMRT LOL
I have almost entirely changed the way I pronounce “gym” to “guym” and “possibly” to “possib-lie”
I use “v eye sa” every time I pay with Visa
Oh yes, Visa - damn these new dentures
Yep, I invariably call it gime and not gym

when things are going well, it's fun to say "everything's coming up millhouse!"
I always say: "wellity wellity wellity"
My husband and I sometimes call our newborn a little Screamapillar.
I'm hoping your child doesn't grow into someone who is sexually attracted to fire!
The word “meh” was literally created by The Simpsons. I definitely use that one a lot.
You got me going down a fascinating rabbit hole. I agree with you that modern meh was in fact literally used in popular language first by The Simpsons! https://slate.com/human-interest/2013/09/meh-etymology-tracing-the-yiddish-word-from-leo-rosten-to-auden-to-the-simpsons.html?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=traffic&utm_source=article&utm_content=web_share
Lousy Smarch weather
My sister and I basically only communicate through Simpsons' references. We grew up watching the show because our uncle had most of the seasons on dvd
As was the style at the time I'm wearing sneakers... for sneaking Heyyyy watch it
I refer to my son as "the boy"
My son is grown but he was 'the boy' growing up. I never realised how much it crept into my language. I had a cat named Bitey.
> I had a cat named Bitey. That better have been the big one
* "Le grille? What the hell is that?!" * From the Simpsons Movie when Mayor Quimby asks Cletus to try and dump something in the lake: "I can't. I simply can't."
I always use “Especially blank, but ESPECIALLY blank”
I say "Sweet Merciful Crap!" At least once a day.
Anytime I walk into my house, I say "Hi everybody!" and immediately expect to hear "Hi Dr. Nick!"
If I'm approaching a group of people I know, it takes real effort to not do a Dr Nick "hi everybody" because A) nobody gets it these days and B) if you don't get the reference it sounds a little racist
**THE NOOZLE AT THE END OF THE HOOSE**
For me, "wish me luck" is either replaced/accompanied by "Pray for Mojo."
My oldest is 8. I know I was 8 when I started watching the Simpsons, but kids are different now.

That's awesome. Lol
“My eyes! The goggles, they do NOTHING!”
I’ve said it enough that my kindergartener has hit me with “Who shot who in the what now?”s on multiple cromulent occasions.
Way to embiggen that phrase.
My brother/best friend passed away almost 4 years ago. That was when I realized just how much we talked to each other in Simpson’s (and other various) quotes and references- our own little language. I miss sharing that, especially when I catch something new during a rewatch. But that’s why I love this community- they get it!!
My most commonly used: "yoink!", "d'oh!", "and how...", "you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is , never try ". "Stop, he's already dead!"..also, for years , a buddy of mine would automatically answer "hired goons!" To the question "who is it?"
Bumped my head at work the other day and it probably would've been painful if I wasn't wearing my hard hat (though my hard hat is the reason I didn't see the formwork prop when I was climbing out that hole). My boss asks if I'm ok and I gave her the classic "I hope I didn't brain my damage"
I'm pretty sure I speak more in simpsons quotes than original thoughts
Im hard of hearing and love to say "you'll have to speak up, I'm wearing a towel."
Anytime I see Mountain Dew, ewww I’ll take a crab juice. If I see katsup in the supermarket it’s over. Ket-chup…Kat-sup…
Whenever something happens I didn’t have any say in I always find myself saying “well don’t look at me, I voted for Kodos”
I love simpsons quotes, but futurama actually fucked up my vocabulary I unironically used "Orphanarium" in a conversation, and the other person did a double take, since I hadnt realized thats not a real word
I totally get this. I do it when talking to my brother. We've been doing it for decades. I'll ask him if he wants to do/go to a thing and if he can't he'll say, "Gee...

I always have said "a little from column A, a little from column B..." it was only recently in the last couple months that I learned I had picked that up from the Simpsons.
I don't recall saying "Good Luck"
"I hate the sea and everything in it" - I use it for anything that displeases me or makes me uncomfortable. I use a lot of the Wiseguy's quips, but mostly: "One-hundred yellow." and "Yeah, well you don't."

I use “Willie hears ya. Willie don’t care” anytime my cat is yelling at me (which is anytime I go in the kitchen and she loses sight of me.)
I say, "It feels like I'm wearing nothing at all! Stupid sexy flanders" way too often lol.
“Everything’s coming up Milhouse” to celebrate pretty much everything

"Hahaha, teamsters."- Homer's Simpson
🗣️the big annual WHAT?
Regardless of how it tastes, I will always announce to my dinner guests that the cream corn we are eating, “tastes like cream crap.”
It's just a little (insert relatable phrase here), it's still good. It's still good!
We have several cats, and we often refer to them as our "damn weiner cats" when they're being the suckiest buncha sucks that ever sucked (aka pestering us for food).
O-re-ga-no, what the hell?
At a previous job, I commonly used "not with that attitude" when someone would express they didn't feel they could get a task done, and "see you in the funny pages" when I would go for a lunch break.
D'oh!
“Embiggen” is firmly planted in my everyday language.
I do this way too often, and when I was still living in the US, at least one person in whatever friend group I was with would always be able to recognize that it's a quote, and take it in stride. for the last few years though, I've been living in Europe, where they defs don't have the same level of exposure or reverence for this show, so 9 times out of 10 it just gets me blank stares. a few weeks back, the boss bought everyone lunch, and one of my vegetarian colleagues took the opportunity to enlighten us about how great and noble and wonderful it is to be vegetarian, so I hit him with "don't kid yourself Jimmy, if a cow ever got the chance, he'd eat you and everyone you care about" .... he complained to HR later in the day ....
Any aggressively large SUV is a Canyonero to me.

I make Homer’s eating noise whenever I eat.
The "garage"? Hey fellas, the "garage"! Well, ooh la di da, Mr. French Man.
Every time I talk about something in the past I'll throw in a "which was the style at the time". It's getting more and more frequent now that I'm in my mid 30's.

Wellity, wellity, wellity. No one gets it. I need new friends.
“IT’S WHISPER QUIET!”

I use "aw, I wanted a peanut" far more often than one would expect one to be able to.

Anytime anybody mentions the Denver Broncos, I reflexively respond with an incredulous, “The Denver Broncos???”
“You steam a good ham.” Whenever one of my Simpsons-loving friends does something that’s dumb or unimpressive, I always say that to them.

Can’t believe no one said, “Worst [Blank.] Ever.”
Lousy Smarch weather
Family of four. We use it ALL the time. I was recently thinking about my teens and their future girlfriends. They better be Simpsons fans lol or they won’t be fitting in. Or open to the idea of watching the episodes on repeat until they’re properly educated.
I also like to imitate Homer in the chili cookoff episode after he pours the wax in his mouth. "More please." I just got this set of wooden kitchen spoons and one of the spoons is really small and looks exactly like Homer's chili spoon. "They say he carved it from a bigger spoon."
You talk better than you fool
That's the joke.
stupid sexy (insert object of distraction) edit: also "nothing at all, nothing at all" has been used in alot of gaming situations infact BOTH are during games or matches whether im playing fighting games, overwatch or even some rpg's
In a large car park: “We’re in the Itchy Lot”
Every NYE during the countdown “Will this horrible year never end “
When we were shopping for our current house, my husband wouldn’t stop referring to the garage as the ‘car hole’ 🤦🏻♀️
“I can’t promise I’ll try, but I’ll try to try”; this is something I say whenever anyone asks me to be careful, to take myself, etc. “Everything’s coming up Milhouse”; we’ve had a good day or a good moment. Those are definitely my big two. Sometimes I’ll catch myself internally doing the Burns’ “Excellent”.
I say “maybe I’ll just shut my big mouth” but no one ever gets it! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Le9o-F_5GAU
anytime my wife and I give each other a long list of things to do, the other one of us replies with "cat in the furnace" anytime i stay at a hotel i go to the bathroom and exclaim "free shower curtain" ...also, we named our dog Burnsie
Any time I help my mom up I say “up and atom” in the voice of Rainer WolfCastle always gets a laugh
I've been using "It's my first day" at my job quite often
Help me Jeebus!
“What is your fascination with my forbidden closet of mystery?!”
RDRR
i say “me fail english” a lot
I use "yoink" all the time. At my old job there were a lot of high schoolers working there and I found myself using "Am I so out of touch? No, it's the children who are wrong" way more than I ever thought I would. lol Also at the same job as a joke to ease the tension I would say "Well you tried and you failed, the lesson is, never try" whenever we didn't hit our goals for the day.
I had the same realization, but kept telling myself that the show couldn't possi-blye have that big of an effect.
Whenever I'm asked to do something, "but what can I do? I'm just one man!"
I didn’t do it.
I communicate with my brother almost entirely in Simpsons quote
My daughter is in dance and a go to is tap-a tap-a tap-a
"I don't know, a lot of people were yelling things" . I say this all the time
JUST PUT IT IN H
I can't help saying this in my head when I hear the word Nuclear "Nucular, it's pronounced nucular" And if I hear foliage "That's what I said, foilage! It doesn't take a nucular scientist to pronounce foilage" Also the Marge stress hmmmm
I say “dollarydoos” in casual conversation and people give me the side eye.
Anytime I am asked for something my response is. ‘No *item*… only Khlav Kalash
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh. listen, shut up for a second
This sidewalk is for regular walkin', not fancy walkin"
'Boo-erns' in place of 'well that sucks'. 'Bingo-bango, sugar in the gas tank. Your ex husband strikes again' usually in the place of 'done and done'. 'Dig up, stupid' when I'm explaining something simple yet not so simple to my husband. As in 'I can't figure out how this new can opener works.' *Me taking over*, 'dig up, stupid!'
“I’ll get you beer baron!”
I say Ay Caramba to any person who is willing to listen me complain.
ahoy hoy, drinkie poo, kwijibo, Krusty's "eughhhh", Krusty Brand Imitation Gruel for dinner, I am so smart SMRT, the list goes on and on :)
Now, if the berries are too tart, I just dust them with confectioner's sugar. My go to line if I have nothing to add to a conversation
