Catchphrases

[Funt Solo]

That reminds me of the dramatization movie of the Mount St' Helens eruption (the cunningly titled St. Helens from 1981).

Anyway, there was a die-hard old dude who lived on the mountain (Harry R. Truman) and refused to leave despite the warnings from volcanologists (not to be confused with people who study Spock).

The movie version of him utters the immortal line "Don't give me any shit, boy! I've got a turd in every pocket!"

I can't work out whether it was a great catchphrase or a terrible one

I can't work it out either.
I suppose it's all to do with context, but if the context happens to be a later outing of Marshal Law, then I'm going to come down on the side of terrible.

(It's a sad thing, prejudice.)

[edgeworthy]

"Aint no Flies on Fergee ...
... Easy the Ferg!"

[The Legendary Shark]

"Let me tell you what I think..."

Me.

[JohnW]

"Let me tell you what I think..."

Me.

'Seize him!'

Me.

Catchphrases that needed some more work:

                "Pucker up and kiss my axe!"

"The name's Slade. That's S-L-A-D-E – just like it sounds."

                "I'm too moist to kill!"

"The ABC Warriors are back – after these messages!"

                "Let's spoon!"

"Be pure! Be vigilant! Be on time in future!"

                "Oh my poor arses!"

[Dash Decent]

Catchphrases that needed some more work:

"I AM THE LAst one to throw stones!"

And, if shouting out gun settings counts as a catchphrase - "Tex/Mex!"

"I'm Sam C. Slade.  The C is for Christmas..."

"Nup" (Oh, the hilarity!)

"Your mouth is full of molars."

[JohnW]

"Long way to Hondo, Dredd. Desert's gonna be full of creeps and bushwhackers all the way."
"Yeah? Well you tell me, Alpha...
                                                       ...Who the hell's gonna give us directions?"

[JayzusB.Christ]

'Kiss me quick!'

'Be pure, be vigilant, be excellent to each other.' (air guitar)

'The crimmme issss lifffffffe.... the sssssentencccce issss "the crimmme isss lifffffe."'

'Fukky nell!'

"I'm Sam C. Slade.  The C is for Christmas..."

'He didn't think it too merry.'

[sheridan]

And, this.

Linky no worky.

Fixy bixy.

And for balance: this is how it's done

[Dash Decent]

Catchphrases that needed some more work:

"Let's vape!" - MC1 Smokatorium.

"See you on the slippery dip!"

"Are you hangry?"/"You look hangry."

"Number four printer cartridge!"

[Woolly]

'I represent the police!' - Judge Dredd

[The Legendary Shark]

Ukko, "I knew you'd slay that."

Dark Judge Slightly Queasy - "Gaze into the face of quease!"
Judge "Tight Boots" Dredd - "Gaze at my ingrown toenail!"

No contest, there. Slightly Queasy bokes into his own helmet, and has to excuse himself. And some classic Bolland art, where he's used as reference a photograph of Boris Karloff's ingrown toenail taken during the filming of Bride of Frankenstein.

Jesus wept, I've had a horrific flashback to that Millar Robohunter with the Fat Slags in it.
