This thread is for talking about catchphrases we have.

"Oh, wow" seems to be mine.

"Because of course" is one I think semi-frequently, but I've never said it.

You say I am loved, when I don’t feel a thing. You say I am strong, when I think I am weak. You say I am held, when I am falling short.

I think they're more like verbal tics instead of catchphrases. Life ain't as much of a 80s sitcom as it might seem these days

Got a habit to start a sentence with 'Well shit' and 'Hell, we/I/they/there' and referring to basically anything I can't find a name for as 'sumbitch'. Either I watched too many movies or the family swearing is getting to me.

"....Dammit....."

Thanks to this animation, I don't know why, but I ended up liking the expression.

"It's all cool" and "it's all chill". Occasionally with a "bruv" thrown in after. I just like calling people "bruv".

"Forget it" or "Forget you"

I don't really swear so I use the word forget in place of the F word. It doesn't work in any use of the word. I also use forget it in instances where something doesn't work so I say that and just toss the broken thing aside.

I also like saying "I don't know" if I don't want to talk to someone and they ask me something I just say that.

I also like saying "Dammit Dammit Dammit" like the aliens in Robot Chicken. I don't like swearing but I would still say the mild words.

Another word I like using is jagoff. It isn't a swear word it comes from the Scotch-Irish word jag which means to poke, stab, or annoy. A jagoff is an annoying person.

I sometimes say, "Look, I'm sorry, but..." right before pointing out an Accidental Innuendo. I also tend to say, "Priorities!" and "(something) aged like fine milk." When I talk about scary things, I often say, "It's not for the faint of heart." I also have a slight Verbal Tic of saying "heh" before bringing up a funny memory.

I guess it counts but I tend to refer to everyone I end up being friends with no matter the gender as "bro".

Help me. I can't get it out of my head.

I only say it a couple of times, but whenever I hear a really good song while randomly browsing Spotify/Youtube and the sound is currently emitting from the speakers, I pause the video and say "This is headphone worthy" and then proceed to listen to the song with headphones.

"Oh myyy..." in response to things that unexpectedly get rather suggestive. And yes, I tend to say it somewhat like George Takei does.

I mostly picked this up from the reaction my dad had to a sex scene in a movie we were watching one time. It was pretty brief and not much was shown (it was a PG-13 movie, after all), but still, haha.

I put "heya." on my profile on every profile I make.

I've also been using "I would rather die" in response to something unfavorable.
