It totally occurred to me yesterday that I totally overuse a certain expression.

I still believe in the excellent joy of the Catholics

Haha, I say that lots too.

And after episodes of Trailer Park Boys I tend to say
"For the love of fuck!"

Names of diseases are very popular in my country, especially the Dutch equivalents of cancer and tuberculosis.
I never use the word cancer, I hate it when someone does, but tuberculosis all the time

The dutch slang word for tuberculosis is "tering" pronounded as tea-ring ("tea" like pronounced in "teardrop")


I'm tall, I'm Dutch, and Kathryn is still married to her wine connaisseur

Lately I've been using "Gee" a lot. Is it OK to use it? Isn't it outdated?

I like it - it's kinda (another one!) retro

"What part of 'no' don't you understand?" I like this expression so much that I translated it into French to use it in my everyday life. Unfortunately I'm too polite, or too shy, to use it as often as I'd like.

I quote Simpsons episodes a lot.

I use qualifiers way too much. "Really," "basically," "kind of," "sort of," "apparently," and stuff like that.

'Anyway' and 'by the way' are my favorite English expressions, as you probably noticed.

In French I clearly tend to overuse 'en fait' (in fact) and 'par contre' (on the other hand).

i've said "i mean" too much the last year or so, it replaced "like" from my youth.
kathryn Posted - 06/22/2005 : 13:24:26
I totally overuse the expression "omigod." Totally.
