IRL I lack a catchphrase, outside of a disdainful look.

Not really a Catchphrase, but I use "..." a lot.

You got some dirt on you. Here's some more!

I am not sure if I truly have catchphrases. I admit that the language I use tends to be pretty repetitive though.

Still, I suppose I say "I do not dislike W" a good deal (i.e. when someone asks me my opinion on something I often respond with that rather indecisive statement).

"...but that would make me a hypocrite." Generally preceded by something I would otherwise mock/criticize. I myself am actually surprised by the number of things I cannot comment on given that reasoning.

I have a few, but now that I'm trying to think about them, I can't remember any of them.

"Oh dear Lord (above/almighty/in heaven/on his throne/ascendant/etc)."

"Good Lord!"

"Ah."

Looking over my old posts, seems like I say "I'm not too worried about it" quite a lot.

I like to use "flipping" a lot.

Such as:

I have the tendency to say "awesome", "goddamnit" and "indeed" a lot.

I seemed to have developed the tendency to say "literally" before quoting something a lot more than I used to. It's starting to annoy my mom, and I guess I do need to cut down on it, since rarely am I quoting something ridiculous or unbelievable...

I have a tendency, in real life and here, to segue between unrelated sentences by starting them with "also".

I blame Futurama.

I seem to have picked up the Professor's "Oh my yes" when delivering bad news.

Recently, "I have a plan" keeps cropping up.

I have a weird tendency to say "mon" when I'm relaxed, even though I'm not Jamaican.

"Well, basically." I use that as a lead-in way too much. And I use "indeed" as a backchannel far more often than is healthy.

Incidentally, I apparently have a lot of catchphrases—or at least things that make my mom or sister say "I knew you were going to say that!"—but I can't think of any off the top of my head.
