" -pause- I have no idea." or some variation thereupon. Sometimes, I forget something. And when I get called out on it, that's what I say. Or if someone walks up to me while something weird is happening, and they ask me "what is going on?", that's what I say. Usually, I put emphasis on the "no".

You don't know how many times I say that in a day.

You're right, I don't. Because I've never met you. Brilliant deduction there. =/

"Dude, that is totes G/totes awesome." (on things I like)

"No. No. Do not go together." (on things that clash in colour, style, etc.)

To be honest, I think I've been using "to be honest" a lot.

"Oh me oh my", "To be fair", "Oi vey", "Good golly gumdrops", "Basically", "Good lord", "Sod off", "Tee-hee" (high-pitched with wry smile and fingers held to mouth; invariably spoken in jest).

There used to be a lot of others, but my brother and I have an unspoken agreement not to use these as much, as we pretty much drove those phrases into the ground from over-exposure. "Well sorry, Fernando" was a favourite, though that one was actually developed by a friend of my brother's as a once-off joke before becoming part of my verbal lexicon.

"Eh."

The appropriate reply to anything if you don't actually want to answer it.

"Sakra."

I have no idea why I mildly swear in Bavarian, but there you go.

And on the internet I use an overabundance of "I guess," "I mean" and "heh".

"Fuck my life forever."

I tend to put "forever" at the end of my sentences to describe extreme displeasure. Another example would be "I hate you forever".

I go through phases of using a phrase quite a lot, I've noticed, but I can't think of anything that really counts as a catch-phrase.
