... it's ingrained into your family vocabulary?

This morning: "Porridge today Gromit.
It's Tuesday".

Other favourites: "Where's the salad? Where's the salad?"

"That'll do Pig, that'll do..."

We have so many in our family!

"love love love", think it was from the Heartbreak kid with Ben Stiller.

Don't call me Shirley!

When anything doesn't happen- there may come a day when (we run out of crisps / the laundry is finished / we're punctual for something). BUT IT IS NOT THIS DAY!!

This is Bridget Jones searching for tuna! Whenever someone goes in the fridge 😂

Dinnerladies!!! DD and I use many quotes from it!!!

Thank you!

FuckedOverByBuilder · 27/02/2025 19:06

Whenever we go shopping or aim to meet somewhere and are saying goodbye we quote Last of the Mohicans
Just stay alive! No matter what occurs! I will find you!

And if we've got a little short with the kids or something we love the Mitchell and Webb quote
Hans...are we the baddies?

Thought of this thread last night when I was in a pub and for about the millionth time in my life ended up saying “slippery little sucker” about something I was struggling to eat. Grin

Said to my DCs this morning -
"Lynn, you've got ten minutes".

Our family favourite AP quote is
"Could you cool me down with a hand fan please Lynn".

Love AP!

“You stay alive, no matter what occurs. I will find you!”
Adds an edge of drama as DC head off to school.

Day After Tomorrow?

Donotgogentle · 01/03/2025 15:42

Last of the Mohicans - Hawkeye to Cora as she’s taken prisoner.

MrsSkylerWhite · 01/03/2025 15:46

Ah, ok. Something similar in DAT, Dennis Quaid talking to Jake Gyllenhall as he tries not to drown on a public phone in NYC Library.

MrsSkylerWhite · 01/03/2025 15:48

Just googled. DQ says “ I will come for you, do you understand me? I will come for you.”

Donotgogentle · 01/03/2025 16:45

That is very similar!

MrsSkylerWhite · 01/03/2025 17:11

Love that naff old movie, Donotgogentle.

(Though it’s becoming less unlikely by the year 😱.)

ChippySauce · 01/03/2025 17:33

Does anyone else’s family go round suddenly declaring “I am a… faithful/traitor” for no real reason, other than just for dramatic effect?
Our dog is always pronounced as a “faithful” though by the DCs because she just is 😍

Tonight's film quote was from Chicken Run:

"What kind of pie?"
"Apple pie"
"Ooh, I like apple pie"
