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.

We like to a la Jake and Finn from Adventure Time.

Whenever me and dp can't do something simple that we should be able to we always say 'you teach me to football' from the longest yard!

Also anything that one of us does that the other doesn't like (nothing bad but say if one has some chocolate and the other doesn't) we go Galaxy caramel it's a Bing thing.

Lots of shrek quotes too - whenever someone mentions layers

Loads of Harry Potter stuff too

For no good reason when DH and I are doing anything DIY related and we have to hand each other something we say, 'thanksssssss' in the voice of a snake from Harry Potter.

I often say, 'No time for pleasantries, Kyle' when i'm in a hurry with either DS.

We always refer to murals as muriels from Hilda Ogden in Corrie years ago.

We often deliberately pronounce words as they look rather than sound, such as pictureskew (picturesque).

And we're still doing "wanna go Helsinki/Florida" or "yeah but no but" from Little Britain.

"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

We also love "it's noice, it's unusual, it's diffrint"! Currently re-watching all of Kath and Kim... so many brilliant quotes.

Oh God millions, we only converse in quotes. Only Fools, Fawlty Towers, Young Ones, Two Doors Down, Him & Her, occasionally Mickey Flanagan (see username) but predominantly Men Behaving Badly;

"You were conjoined by the bottom to Kevin Keegan."

"I don't know, can't be expected to remember EVERYTHING."

"You must stay and file my fish."

"I think there was a Wendy..."

Micky Flanagan. Are you going out out?

there’s a quote from Mean Girls ‘You’re a mean girl. You’re a bitch!’ If we are in polite company one of us will say the “you’re a mean girl’ Half but not follow it up - but the other one knows what we mean!

Also, when Shrek 2 came out Irish tv carried an ad for squash featuring a little boy bouncing up and down in the car chanting ‘Donkey, donkey, donkey’. We started repeating it with the appropriate bouncing whenever we saw a donkey but now it’s used for anything even vaguely interesting seen from a car or train.

Start of Any car trip ‘where we’re going we don’t need roads’. DCs do not find it as funny as I do.
‘Twins, nature’s wierdos’ to either one of my DTs when the other one has done something daft.

We start any non-routine journey - holiday, day out etc - by singing a little Talking Heads

^Well we know where we're going
But we don't know where we've been
And we know what we're knowing
But we can't say what we've seen
And we're not little children
And we know what we want
And the future is certain
Give us time to work it out^

“It’s Christmas and we’re all in misery” I start saying and thinking this when the tree goes up.

We say the friend thing from the inbetweeners if anyone talks about having a friend

Good luck and don't fuck it up from drag race

I am wounded - Frasier. Said in a very loud dramatic voice anytime someone has done something to annoy the other.

Choo need the hairy dog - Benidorm. Said to someone who is hungover. Also said in Spanish accent.

Well hello there Mr UPS man - Southpark. Said in Banes voice anytime a delivery is coming.

We also do loads of Friends ones and Family Guy.

Also anytime we meet someone called Harry, Gary, Barry etc they get told they are a wizard in Hagrids accent.

Lovely bit of squirrel 😁

Tidy.
At the end of the day, when all's said and done.

Keep thinking of more 😂

Everytime something is getting binned we now say 'Trash?' in Forkys voice.

DH uses a lot of IT Crowd and Father Ted quotes through the day, particularly "down with this sort of thing" and "act normal! MORE NORMAL!".
My mum and I use:
-"that's noice, different, s'unsual",
-"Deirdre Chambers, what a coincidence!", "you're terrible Muriel",
-"guess who's dead?", "let's have a look at what they could have won.
What have they won? Speedboat. Where do they live? Tamworth", "they don't do gravy, curry sauce no go", "morning Jean, that's wrong - Jean's been locked in" (Peter Kay),
-"have you ever left a country gate slightly ajar? Have you got any bees or beekeeping equipment? What, on me?", "the laminated book of dreams! And why is it laminated? TO CATCH THE TEARS OF JOY." (Bill Bailey),
-"oh Doris, where's the salad?", "oh Nessa love you look fab-ulous. I know, I feels it"
-"Oh love you could open a shop" (from a film called The Castle)

Plus loads more I can't think of now!

From Frazier, we talk about 'debuting' a new outfit.

There once was an advert for McCain Micro Chips featuring a boy with a strong Scouse accent. He asks his mum where the Micro Chips are, she says in the freezer and he looks then calls out "I can't fiiiind them!". We always imitate that line when looking for anything around the house!

If DH is in my way when I’m cooking I say “get outter my pub! Yer barred!” in a Peggy Mitchell voice.

We say “lovely bit of squirrel” too 😂

@Hippofrog We also say that as well as "Can I get you a refil? something to eat? Drive you out to the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead"

"never mind the fucking guttering, get the kettle on chip, oh and get some hobnobs!"

"never mind fatty, and don't Bryn me, it's Mr Cartwright to you!"

"Don't you good girl me you fat bastard!"

"Well only fucking hotdog it is then boy Bach!"

Twin town

"Have you been WANKIIIING!"

@Kaathesnake

My DMum always used to call louvre doors lao-vree doors after Only Fools, even though she knew it was looovrah. It was a running gag until she went ti B&Q to buy some and called them lao-vree doors...... There was silence until the assistant said "errrr, looovrah doors, Madam?"

I always say "do you have none of the large ones?" After Billy Connolly - he did a routine about being very rich - it means that he can walk into a shop and say "do you have none of the large ones?" I say it if someone's being a bit pretentious or showing off with money.

Equally, we called a moment of fury at something totally outrage "a spot-welder moment" after BC's reaction to being told a carpet COSTthousands of pounds. "..... I could feel the spot-welder in me racing to the fore. I wanted to shout FOR A FUCKING CARPET???!!!!"
