If someone says 'I have a question'

I will interrupt before they finish the sentence with my finest rendition of Beyoncé's 'question: tell me how you feel about me'. Complete with butt attitude and finger waggle.

brie I thought I was out of the habit, now DS2 is obsessively watching bubble guppies and it is back!

HoneyDragon · 26/04/2016 19:48

If anyone says "guys" I do the goonies "hey you guys"

HoneyDragon · 26/04/2016 19:49

Actual tears at that comment Grin

When I hear someone say "be alert" I always say, the world needs more lerts. Thanks for that DH!

RaptorInaPorkPieHat · 26/04/2016 19:52

Whenever anyone says "Stop"

I always say "Hammer Time"

DD got some funny looks and gasps of horror when her teacher asked the class "What do you think of it so far?" and she shouted out "RUBBISH" (Luckily the teacher got the reference) Grin

I'm a vet, and whenever I castrate an animal, from tomcat to horse, I absentmindedly sing under my breath YMCA "Young man, there's no need to feel down..."

When my dh hears the name Isabel he says necessary on a bike.

KanyesVest · 26/04/2016 20:01

I once cried because dh didn't sing "we built the pyramids". It was a thing we used to do, then I kept on doing it and he didn't. Made me question our future if he could give it up so easily. I wasn't even pregnant.

In my more rational moments, I always say "home again, home again, jiggidy jig" as we pull into the driveway. DD says it now too --she better not turn on my like her father did

Yyy to Flash
Big Bang Theory.

Stop - too collaborate and listen surely?
And don't call me Shirley.

I add
"What can you make of this?"

Every, single time

'HEY YOU GUUUUYYYS' I did that the other day to the dc and they just stared blankly at me.

salsamad · 26/04/2016 20:05

Every time we're on holiday in a hotel and we leave the room - I will ask DH "You got the key" and he sings back "I've got the secret......" Every single time!! Grin

OpenMindedSceptic · 26/04/2016 20:08

When ever I say to DH that we are having quiche for lunch he starts singing:
'All that I'm saying is give quiche a chance.'

SoupDragon · 26/04/2016 20:09

the end bit of International Playboys.

I have no idea what that is.

justdontevenfuckingstart · 26/04/2016 20:10

Every time The Goonies is on I will text my sister to say 'Boodie trap' and she texts back 'That's what I said!' and if DD2 mentions nachos, usually in Sainsbury I go 'Nachooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo' and then she walks off.

Baconyum · 26/04/2016 20:10

Aww salsa that was my little gang at uni's song

bettyberry · 26/04/2016 20:15

my DS has a knack for singing the right Queen lyric at the right time. Mostly its funny but sometimes I wish he would stop.

He walked into a lamp post and I couldn't help it 'another one bites the dust' Grin

mostly I just use Ghostbusters lines at the wrong times :p

DH and I do 'don't call me Shirley' too. Also random quotes from Airplane if anyone says 'What's that?' 'It's a big building with patients - but don't worry about that now.'

Also: We have clearance, Clarence.
Roger, Roger.
What's our vector, Victor?

Not a song but I'm a HCP and when calling people through to my room I have to restrain myself from saying "Mary Smith... Come On Dowwwwn!" In the style of The Price is Right and similar gameshows

coughingbean · 26/04/2016 20:25

When someone says up i automatically say down and visa versa.
It annoyes the crap out of me but i still do it. Every.single. time. Angry

HoneyDragon · 26/04/2016 20:26
