“See ya, wouldn’t want to be ya” is such a dumb little thing kids say. But it really rings true and much more harsh as an adult.

Not really a catchphrase but back in the day I used to call cigarettes "crows".

It caught on.

But I knew I had success when I was talking to someone I had just met and they asked somebody for a "crow"

I did one of these and then learned he picked up the word from my cousin :thumbsup:

At my house in 100% of cases when I am asked where something is I respond "Up my arse!".

Does that count?

I’ve been using the phrase “get real” from my partner years ago. I like to drop it on her when she deserves it. It makes me giggle.

Let’s give covid a rest and put our energy into some meaningful research. I’ll let you know what I can dig up.

The bus thread reminded me of my catchphrase to the bus drivers living on another planet, “go fuck your self”.

See you guys. Northern hemisphere, Southern Hemisphere, east coast, west coast, whatever … we have more in common that unites us than we have differences that divide us.
