TV and Film Quotes that are “in jokes” within your family

[GivenchyDahhling]

I’m sure I’ve seen this done before (whether here or on Twitter) but it does always make me laugh to see the quotes people use in their day-to-day lives.

There’s a couple that spring to mind for me - firstly a later Friends episode where the father of the babies Monica and Chandler are going to adopt could be a murderer and Chandler refers to him as, “Shovvely Joe” - DH and I use that about anyone a bit shady!

And more recently there’s a few Brooklyn 99 episodes around a MLM scheme where they all greet each other saying “Boom Boom”; again DH and I say this to each other!

I also always pronounce Socrates as “So-crates” like in Bill and Ted, I’m sure anyone overhearing me would think I was a little bit dim.

There are definitely others, will add them if any come to mind.

"TEA!!!!!!!!!"
As barked by the Duke of Wellington in Blackadder the Third.

Also "Don't bother to show me the way out, I don't want to die of old age before I get to the front door." when someone is being a bit slow.

Whenever either of us says something is raw, or anything that rhymes with raw, we have to say it like "Rawwwwww!" a la Gordon Ramsay.
Also when toddler DD needs changing we say she smells like "that, plus crap" from Goldmember

Mainly Monty Python and Not the Nine O'clock News quotes.

E.g. said in a terrible northern accent to any of our kids about any trivial object or anticipated event 'one day lad, all this will be yours.'

Or 'wild? I was absolutely livid!'

My personal favourite when witnessing bad driving 'drive like that on a public highway, you deserve to be called a raving maniac.'

Or, when facing disappointment 'what did you expect to see out of a Torquay window? The hanging gardens of Babylon?

I’ve just remembered another couple of favourites from Armstrong and Miller.
“I won’t be bullied!” Said in an exaggerated woman’s voice and usually to the dog when she wants her dinner.
“It’s gonna piss down.” When it’s raining

Whenever anyone is ill, there is some reference to...

"She turned me into a newt. I got better" (Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail)

e.g. if my dad has been unwell but is on the mend he might say that he is "only half newt now"

When it starts to rain - 'IT'S SPITTING! EVERYONE INSIDE!' from Peter Kaye talking about school dinner ladies. It's funny because it's true - teachers on playground duty stay out in the rain because it's harder supervising indoor playtime and the other teachers need the break for a cup of tea and a wee (if they're lucky).

Couple of Austin Power ones. When the cats naughty is can't stay mad at you' and tends to be when we're cooking 'it has a certain.....I don't know what'

When we see nuns we can't help but quote Father Ted. 'Nuns! Nuns! Reverse! Reverse!' Rome was a positive minefield.

But of a glitch in the matrix!

You’re terrible Muriel! Here too. Don’t call me Shirley. OH loves saying this 🙄 I just remembered a couple more we use a lot. “She gave me water!” From an old hunchback movie whenever we get a drink handed to us. “Cup of tea!”From a fly on the wall series on Channel 4 called the Family when wanting someone to make it

Also 'G'wan g'wan.. you know you want a nice cup of tea ' from Mrs Doyle in Father Ted

"It's noice, it's diffrent, it's un-you-sual " from Kath and Kim when discovering something new. Also, "Har, haor you?" "It's called Cardonnay, it's French, the H is silent" also: "It's Cardonnay you pack a chunts" "I'm not going to argue with you, you're too stew-pid" I just love that show

"If you ain't first, you're last" whenever DH & I play a game and the other wins (Talledega Nights)

"Yarp" "Still ain't caught them swaaans then" "Great big bushy beard!" all Hot Fuzz, thrown in at odd times of the day for no real reason!

"Just in cases" from Love Actually, whenever we're packing to go somewhere and need to take an extra something. "Mange tou mange tou" when doing something cheffy in the kitchen. There's so many I'm sure I've forgotten

I haven’t rtft so apologise if mine are already done but whenever somebody does something embarrassing or daft, the remaining family members ring a pretend Bell and say “shame, shame, shame”

Also if anyone asks ‘what time is it’ the answer is ALWAYS “it’s time for lunch, it’s lunchtime so what’s for lunch!?” A la bubble guppies

"Talk to the finger cos the hand ain't listening" from Gimme Gimme Gimme.

"Talk to the finger cos the hand ain't listening" from Gimme Gimme Gimme.

I say to my girls when I am showing them how to do something ‘watch, learn...’ and they’ll say ‘don’t eat my cookie’ (phoebe) and more weirdly if i say ‘stop!’ They say ‘hammer time’

DH and I use ‘you don’t eat no meat!’ And ‘it’s okay, I make lamb’ for a lot of things (My big fat Greek wedding)

Cheese gromit if offering cheese to ds.

"There's something not quite right with this yoghurt."

We like to use Sneak Attack when anything catches anyone unawares.

And "it's Halapeno/Ok hanet " - whenever DH ask for jalapeños with his Mexican foods or general garnish.

Both Kim's Convenience.

I love love love Kath n Kim.

"Put the bunny back in the box", in a southern US drawl, from Con Air.

"These aren't the droids you're looking for"

"Bear with...". Someone else mentioned that one too, I say it a lot!

Loads of Simpson's ones. I particularly like "The fingers you have used to dial are too fat. To obtain a special dialling wand, please mash the keypad with your palm now". Can be applied to any dialling or typing mishap!

"Talk to the finger cos the hand ain't listening" from Gimme Gimme Gimme.

I'm sure I use lot of phrases that I can't think of right now! That's reminded me of one from GGG I do use though - when Linda says "viiiile".
