Posted - 03/22/2018 : 05:07:05 Do you drop something FB related into your every day conversations?
Any time someone says "Do what you want," I'm sure you all know what word I respond with. Or if I'm set up to respond with "Do what you want" I'll add it at the end.
And the person usually looks at me funny and says "Huh?"
I know I have a bunch more but that's the first one that comes to mind.
Curious if anyone else has the same phenomenon. |

Posted - 11/03/2018 : 09:33:33 There’s a Tim and Eric sketch where their characters interview Frank, apparently without knowing who he is. He halfheartedly sings a few bars of Gouge Away before giving up in apparent despair. My friend and I quote that video constantly.

Posted - 11/03/2018 : 04:34:56 Can't believe I haven't mentioned this before, but just today when talking to somebody I said "Don't get me wrong.." and you can pretty much guess where it went from there. |

I use that one a lot. Especially with all these annoying tourists and transplants.

Posted - 07/21/2018 : 00:14:13 When grocery shopping in the dessert section I'll sometimes sing (in my mind) 'custard all the way'
Similarly, I do the same to 'I need peas'
I got peas turned up so loud.

Posted - 07/16/2018 : 04:59:48 When the person on the subway next to me has fleas or smells, I might start singing to myself "I Gotta Move."
Or if the kids start acting up, I'll say "talking back is a bad offense."

I do this one
and from now I won't be able to resist singing "I'm washing my back!"
I bet there are 15 others I do but none are coming to mind |

Posted - 05/13/2018 : 10:56:02 Not a song but I once read an interview with the band Cud years ago. The singer recalled a baffling exchange with Black Francis who told him, apropos of nothing, to "respect the potato". For some reason this stuck in my head and to this day I sometimes find myself mouthing "respect the potato" when about to mash said vegetable.
Is that a Frankism? Probably not but hey. |

Posted - 04/22/2018 : 01:12:55 "There was a guy" was a pretty popular one to use back in High School circa 1990. |

Posted - 04/15/2018 : 03:24:32 Just listening to Guy Garvey on radio 6, and during one of his rambles he suddenly went "ooooh" (I think he was talking about choirs or something because he used to be a choir singer, well I suppose he still is if you can count Elbow as a form of alternative post-choir music.
Anyway, he went "oooh" and it sounded just like Kim at the start of Where is my mind? and this inspired me to say "Stop!" abruptly just like Frank. I'm not sure this is necessarily a Frankism though owning to it's spuriousness, however there may have been times I've done this past and I'm not aware.
I also, and this is more of a Toyahism; if something (for example) is a mystery of some sort I sometimes march my arms in the air and clench my fists and sing "it's a mystery" like a new romatic from the 80's |

Posted - 04/13/2018 : 11:06:49 Sometimes when I say "How hard can it be?" I'll repeat it like 5 more times and then say "to be a western star." It's been a while since I did that. |
