I just said "Sausages"

So, yeah...

I just said "Sausages" in the stupid, growly "That's Life" 'talking dog' voice (you'd have to be old to know what I'm talking about) to the Ocado delivery man, and now I can never order from Ocado again.

I don't know why I said it. I don't think I've ever said it out loud in my life before. I was about three when it was on TV and didn't even know I'd stored it in my brain.

I glanced in a bag and saw some sausages and it just came out.

Delivery man was quite young and fit and looked at me very briefly like I was mad. And then didn't react at all - which was worse. We both sort of pretended nothing happened.

"Sausages". In THAT voice.

When I'm feeding the cats chicken I CANNOT do it without singing:

Chick chick a chick chick a chicken
Lay a little egg for me
Chick chick a chick chick a chicken
Homestead is for me

I knew before I opened this that this is why you did! I would definitely do it too!!

Ask him if he knows that 🎵"Trill makes budgies bounce with health, Trill Trill Trill!"🎵

This has cheered me up so much! Thank you!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣😝😝😝

FannyGotobed · 19/03/2024 14:37

😂This really has made me laugh! We had some absolute classic ads and tv in the 80's, I still do the shake n vac song and dance when I'm cleaning the carpets, the dog just looks at me like I'm mad!

@PandaChopChop I'm surprised no-one else has picked up on the comment about exposing yourself - I want to know more!!! 😂

I do pretty much all of these, i think im stuck in the 80s. I also frequently shout "I likes armadillos" whenever I see a dime bar. Gets very embarrassing in ikea.

Britinme · 19/03/2024 14:48

I just looked up the Rantzen sausages dog clip on YouTube, and it's still hysterical.

We quite often do the sausages voice in our house

Just heard Dh in the kitchen singing
“Opal fruits made to make your mouth water”

Love this thread and reminded me of a poster some time ago who lived next door to a homeless hostel. The residents were outside, singing 'if you like a lot of chocolate on your biscuit join our club'. Brilliant.

My embarrassing moment was going for my medication review at my Dr surgery. They asked me to pop on the weighing scale so I walked over and kicked it. Our scales are digital and have to be tapped to switch on.
We all pretended that nothing happened. Just managed to leave before I was howling.

Honestly, I could write a book. This shit happens to me all the time.
Had walked around in said outfit all day yesterday, no problems. Sat down and realised a button was missing..no big deal.
Got up to talk and the top (remaining) button just came undone. No bloody idea how. Frantically doing it up whilst hoping noone bloody noticed whilst I walked to the stage. MP front and centre.
Thankfully I am short and the lecturn was tall. And people probably too polite to say anything . Mortified!

This thread got me watching some old adverts and it reminded me of when my BIL taught my daughter to shout lines from an Irn Bru advert at me. It was carpet time back when my DD(23) was in reception and she was chattering away not paying any attention. So her teacher shushes her to which she replies 'I'll shush you, you tweedy old crow' in a mock scottish accent. It gets worse though as the teacher asks her what she just said and she follows up with the 'come at me bro' gesture and shouts 'cuckoo'. An you know what is even worse still, her teacher was...yup Scottish. Luckily she was dying laughing when she told me but i could have died.
For those who don't get the reference, it was this

Crying!!! 🤣🤣🤣

DontLeanOnTheKeyboard · 19/03/2024 21:19

All of the above. All the time. Whilst cooking meatballs tonight I did a death metal/bolshoi ballet dance routine to Glenn Miller ‘In the Mood’ to cheer DH up. I’m also a prolific song writer off the cuff, which all songs containing ‘all day long’ at several points. Much of this isn’t kept indoors. Embrace it, and I’m laughing thinking of ‘sausages’ just popping out, in fact the more I think of it, the more I’m laughing. Thanks,op.

@Fannyfiggs I sing this too! Though I sing it any time I come into contact with chicken or eggs 😂

I cannot believe there are two of us who do this 😂 there must be more. We should start a club!!

Mind you, reading through this thread, it strikes me that people in general are completely mental and I'm loving it 😁

VioletCharlotte · 20/03/2024 14:56

Lol, this is the sort of thing I would do!

I baffled a young colleagues the other day when I said something was a 'Brucey Bonus', and DS face was a picture when I skipped down the stairs singing the 'Fillet of Fish' song Grin

Oh and my partner recently said 'We wanna be together' in a Brummy accent to some confused 30 somethings (Prudential advert from the early 90's)

I once said 'garlic bread' in Peter Kay voice in the middle of Aldi, so loud, for no apparent reason. Mortifying 🤣🤣🤣

It could be worse: my mum was standing in front of a shelf in Aldi, totally forgot her surroundings and farted loudly. There was a woman nearby who looked at her like 😧 but my mum brazened it out, said "excuse me" and finished her shopping.

I mean, fair play to her. I'd have abandoned my trolley and driven straight to the airport.
