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.

The3rdWatermon whenever DD says You’re not my friend we follow up with You’re not my mate and you are not my fellow DJ!

Peep show "I'm doing fantastic shopping" when buying pizza, pringles etc.

"Shit on it" ALL the time!

It was lines from The Simpsons me and my DB used to randomly recite to each other:

-They're trying to make a monkey out of you!

-To the question "where were you?"
I was buying pornography (this is embarrassing in front of strangers!)

-Seems like the classy thing to do is not draw attention to it.

• It moved me......to a bigger house

• Said the quiet bit loud, loud but quiet

• I for one welcome our (insert current affairs reference) overlords

• Without knowing what is going on, do you think it's time for people to smash each other's heads open and feast on the goo inside?

Yes I do.

-Dental plan!

Sorry may seem strange out of context but still make me chuckle!

Not a quote, but dh was (not) watching Friday Night Dinner and piped up (about Mark Heap) “He was in Green Wing” so now when we see anyone who was in Green Wing we have to say “S/he was in Green Wing you know”

Ooh Bob, I’ve fallen. It may be quite bad.vic and Bob
And a very obscure one from Lovejoy- pre Raph Bros Inc.(Said that way) We thought we were fucking hysterical going round art galleries.

If DD says anything about her upbringing, good or bad, she expects me to , reply with " I suffered from post natal disinterest for fifty years". Dinner Ladies

Shit on it.

Haha yes @Fishypants love the Simpsons one.

When my husband wears his running leggings one of us always says, “feels like I’m wearing... nothing at all!”

When stroking the cat, I sometimes comment that she has a lovely bottom - DH adds sternly that we all have lovely bottoms (Father Ted)

"Oh and that's a bad miss" in the style of Mitchell and Webb's drunk snooker commentators when one of us fires a used nappy at the bin but misses.

When the children are making a racket and DH comes into the room "What's all this shouting? We'll have no trouble he-ah" from of League of Gentlemen

"Have you seen (any person or animal you're looking for)?"is generally answered with, "We didn't burn him!"

When serving dinner- "Beef or cow?" In an Afrikaans accent.

And when one of us is composing a letter or email and can't decide how to finish it the other will always suggest "Boomshanka!" (I handed in my notice last week and was soooooo tempted).

When my husband wears his running leggings one of us always says, “feels like I’m wearing... nothing at all!”

Stupid sexy Flanders!

"I'm going to play cod."
"I can't help but think that this seems awfully familiar."

We say the above lines, sometimes. To explain these, there was the Radio 4 play "The Interrogation", with an episode in which a thug "Mick" who is well-known to the police wastes their time.

Mick: "She came because she wanted to play C. O. D."
Police: "Cod? She came because she wanted to play cod?"
Mick: "Call Of Duty."
Police: "But you said she hates violence?"

And later:
Police: "I can't help, Mick, but think that this seems awfully familiar. Man looks at you in way you don't like."

There's a puffy coat my dh has which usually results in my singing "switch to Michelin" to him..

There’s always “Daddy or chips” in our house.

flowery we do the "excellent " thing too! Especially good to mark the victory of yellow sticker shopping.

Watched the first episode of the new Young Offenders last night. I have to now find an opportune time to use "Three words. Fuc&. Ing. Heist."!!!

i forgot so many from The Thin Blue Line

two syllables....TERROR- ISM
Your cock-up ...my arse
Hoity Toity Up yer bum

Have you been to Scotters? ...if dh asks me to guess where he has been

arty-farty, namby-pamby, hoity-toity, wishy-washy, lardy-dardy, sun-dried tomato eating, decaffeinated fannying about

From the Simpsons (if one of us tries something on and it’s a bit big) “Look at me! I’m a millionaire!”

Lots of Alan Partridge... especially when teaching;"God, that's good","And on that bombshell ","Dan! Dan! Dan!Dan!" (Replaced with child's name), "back of the net!" there are others...

Lots of Fast Show too;

"Nice","Great"
"This week we shall mostly be learning...."
"No Toby not like that"
To DH "Ooo you smell nice", "it's gin"

DH has taken to calling my name out in an aggressive, drunken, Northern Irish accent like Jim MacDonald on Corrie, (we've been watching Classic Coronation Street during lockdown)
I'm sure you can guess what I'm called

Cook a cat

We also very regularly quote Derry Girls.

Winking at your age.
I'll spin you across that floor.
He has risen.
Maureen Malarkey!

Anything that Grandpa Joe says or Sister Michael.

I think DD and I communicate mainly in quotes from The Royle Family, Black Books and Friday Night Dinner!

If ever we're offered a biscuit (or anything to eat really) we have to say "can I have twelve?" Like Jim in FND. Any word that sounds anything like Rowena has to be said "Roweeeeeeeeena" with a stupid face like Bernard in BB. And just about anything from RF.

Oh and The Simpsons. Neither of us can say the proper words for trambopaline, saxamaphone or macamadadia nut. If one of us is being annoying the other will say "I cannot believe you don't shut up" as per Apu.

And with me and DP it's generally Alan Partridge or Vic and Bob.
