Quoting Scripture

[JohnW]

Guffaw! 

"Yawn", "Sigh", "Deep sigh", and of course the ubiquitous "Aargh", were widely used as spoken words in our house when I was growing up.
They might not have come from 2000AD, but their roots in comics are undeniable.

[edgeworthy]

"Easy the Ferg!"

[Dash Decent]

"Thirty years in the cubes, creep!" (misbehaving juves)

"You don't look ready" or "You look ready". (ditto)

"HI-EX!" (just because it's fun to growl it out in a Dredd-y voice.)

"Our man in Hondo" (on various trips to Japan).

[AlexF]

I can't be the only one to think (if not say) "Because I hate you." whenever I do something mean and the person wonders why.

On being confronted by major suprises, my mind jumps to "Holy Weasel! Ben 90's an android!"

And should anyone ever happen to use the word 'gibberish' I think we all know what the response is...

And should anyone ever happen to use the word 'gibberish' I think we all know what the response is...

Grobbendonk spoke gibberish, a fringeworld dialect

:-D

[sheridan]

"You don't look ready" or "You look ready". (ditto)

Ha!  Rackle and I use that all the time when we're getting ready to leave the house!

[Jim_Campbell]

"Your mouth is full of wrong" seems to have lodged itself permanently in my personal lexicon.

[JayzusB.Christ]

Perhaps not exactly scripture, not originating from the House of Tharg, but two Bogie Man quotes have stuck with me, for some reason.

'Aw, ye puir wee sojer'; and, though I'm probably misquoting, 'Sir wouldn't like to pay at all, but I wasn't about to tell this dame.'

Never said out loud, just in my head: The former in a terrible Glasgow accent when I see someone in a desperate state, and the second in a terrible Bogart accent when someone asks me how I want to pay.  The latter does not depend on whether the person calls me Sir - they never do - and I always pay anyway. 
 

[Link Prime]

Few phrases feel as good to use in real life as "Request denied!"

[The Legendary Shark]

In moments of frustration with recalcitrant objects or livestock, like when you're trying to hold three things at once in order to screw them together and manage to drop every single piece one by one or trying to catch a panicked chicken (don't ask), "Flies too smart for Sharkee."

[JohnW]

One summer I worked as a security guard in an art gallery that had notions. They had just installed a swanky lift and thought to add to the swank by reviving the archaic job of lift attendant. One of us had to stand in a confined space, press a button while wearing white cotton gloves, and confidently announce each floor.
It proved an unpopular post.
One of my colleagues claimed to have said, 'Express elevator to hell! Going down!' one time. I'd almost believe him, seeing as he was a bit of a psycho.

Thinking about it now, I wonder what I might have done if I'd lost my cool and there happened to be more than three floors.
'I'm a-goin alla way upta FOUR!'

[Hawkmumbler]

I have tendency to mutter "No! Please let me drown before [insert whatever minor inconvenience is blighting my day] get to me!".

On odd choice of scripture I'm sure but the ludicrous imagery has been a source of many a good chuckle.

[Proudhuff]

Scumsucker!

Mind the oranges Marlon!

Glory barge?

Mostly out loud and to the confusion of nearest and dearest.

Mostly out loud and to the confusion of nearest and dearest.

... Which is as it should be.


This one jumped back out at me only yesterday.

I never cared for this story, but that one panel has been stuck in my head for more than thirty years and any mention of parties and/or Gene Pitney recalls it.

"Your mouth is full of wrong" seems to have lodged itself permanently in my personal lexicon.

Yup, all the time. And it's a good line. People like it and I have to explain it's not mine.

I may also have once introduced myself to a newspaper production staff by saying: "I'm a stickler."
