Catch phrases

Post by Pammy »

I just used Groucho Marx catch phrase

"and I mean that most sincerely folks"

I love those films, which won't surprise you I expect.

Any more catch phrases please.

:-? do you mean stuff like-

"Pardon me while I have a strange interlude"
"Let low-country intruder approach a cove
And eyes as gray as icicle fangs measure stranger
For size, honesty, and intent."

Captain Kirk never uttered his catch phrase "Beam me up, Scotty," in the original series. Not in so many words, anyway.

Here in the UK, I thought that "And I mean that most sincerely, Folks!" was Hughie Greene.

ITMA was a fertile source:

"Can I do you now, sir?"

"I go - I come back!"

And the Goons:

"He's fallen in the water!"

"April in Paris - now we've found a Charlie!"

Guess who I was watching the other day:

"here's another fine mess you've gotten me into!"

and

"Why don't you come up and see me, big boy?"

Remember Rowan and Martin's Laugh-in?

"Sock it to me"

"Verrrry interesting - but schtupid!"

"Say Goodnight, Dick!"

...that show did have jokes sometimes, and not JUST catch-phrases, didn't it?

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.
