When I get in the bath and it's a bit hot I always

[HoneyDragon]

Sing the end bit of International Playboys. Can't help myself, it just comes out.

Go on then people. Out irrational odd habit that one....

I love this thread! Makes me feel less weird now

Bare left - omg is there???
Stop - hammer time
Surely you cant - yes I can, and don't call me Shirley
Can I... - kick it, yes you can!
And loads more that escape me at the mo, ill quote films a lot and reply in song lyric most of the time. I do DD1's head in and she's only 8

Dh and I both sing a lot. Saturdays on the way to parkrun always requires us to sing Parklife, the Flash song is wheeled out at any opportunity, and taking clothes off requires 'Get your socks off, get your socks off baby'. Fortunatly ds likes this and now will start singing off himself

My husband always burps 'ralph' and sneezes 'mouse attack'. Wierdo!
I have to say 'home again home again jiggedy jig' as i pull into the driveway. bit more normal!

Raptor, I love that! Grr!

Justmuddlingalong - I cheer the train off too, except I don't do a subtle choo choo, I say 'Wheeee!' Like sheldon.

I'm planning a big train based holiday next year. I don't know how I'm going to cope!

I sing the 'how deep is your bath' one when filling the bath too.

Oh and in my family... if there bad weather, one of us will say 'I'm off to brave the elements'
Then the other will say 'elephants? Where?' We so funny!

Also, if there is a royal wedding or some kind of Royal based event, my mother and I will share the following exchange in very fake Received Pronunciation...
'Nobody puts on a show of pageantry like the British!'
'Do you know, I think foreigners are a little bit jealous of our Royal family'

Which is a running joke from a book we both read years ago. It's so old, the original reference was to Prince Andrew marrying Sarah Ferguson...

When I see roadside signs advertising sheep trials, I always have to say "Guilty".....every single time!

Also, Stop...... Hammer time

And most bizarrely if someone mentions doing something with their "bare hands" I always say/think/mutter "......and your tiger feet"

If someone mentions DNA I sing the suzanne vega/DNA thing -duh duh duhduh....

Maybe tomorrow has to be finished with "I'll wanna settle down" in the style of the littlest hobo.

yy to the Red Dwarf "it's cold outside"..

Aah. This thread makes me feel a bit better. I have a constant soundtrack in my head (and sometimes out loud if I think no-one outside the family can hear or if I forget where I am)- this is made up of song lyrics/film quotes/misquotes. It's entirely involuntary and mainly cheesy rubbish (so no risk of being mistaken for an eccentric arty type). Frequent occurrences are 'where's me jumper' for misplaced knitwear (so glad I am not the only one as this is a daily event with my children), I've got the key (and the secret) as we leave the house, ' Get out of my dreams (and in to my car) as we set off on the school run/to the shops etc, 'In Cars' if DH and I leave at the same time in our vehicles, 'Convoy' (complete with imaginary air horn pulling) if we are in a traffic jam with more than one truck, 'Give peas a chance' whenever I serve peas, 'Hands up, baby hands up (give me your heart etc)' when putting a jumper on a small child, 'Build me up buttercup' whenever I hear anyone say 'why do you', 'Don't, don't you want [insert name of thing]' if anyone says no to something I offer (eg a biscuit etc). If anyone asks where I'm from (as my accent is clearly not from where I live) I fight the urge to quote Casablance 'I'm a drunkard, that makes me a citizen of the world'- because anyone who gets it will think I'ma pretentious twat and anyone else will assume I'm confessing to a drink problem.

I fear that my DC are starting to do the same, and probably have no idea that this is a bit odd.

Love this thread.
When someone says "hello" I HAVE to sing "it's me" in the style of Adele

On the way to work with DH we always drive past a house called "Asbrook", the first time I saw the sign I thought it said Assbrook. It actually really bugs me that it only has one 'S'.

So now every time we drive past it I have to loudly correct the sign by saying "ARSE brook" to DH.

If anyone ever says it's cold outside I always sing 'there's no kind of atmosphere' the depressing thing is when people don't get the reference

YY to so many of these; hammer time, handbag, flash...

Plus, if anyone says 'I'm cold', I say 'I'm old' (a la Joey from friends).

Hello fellow twats by a PP has set me off 😂

Whenever anyone starts a sentence with "do you know..." within earshot of me or my sister, one or both of us will fill in "...where...the toilets are?" in the manner of Bridget Jones. I actually bumped into Mr Titspervert in the supermarket the other week and was dying to ask him.

Also do "Flash, ah-ah!", assumed everyone did

There are lots of other songs that get thrown about regularly in our house, but they're eluding me at present.

I knew a guy who had a girlfriend called Jolene. I really found it hard to control the urge to sing the song in her company or when her name was mentioned! I always sang it in to myself.

I do too many of these.

I work with a bloke called Amadou and every time I say/read/hear his name my brains wanders off and sings his name in the style of Xanadu! I once confessed this to a colleague who said that she does the same thing but sings Agadoo! Poor guy.

I can't believe how many of these I do to.

It's occurred to me that I've never got the cream out the fridge without going "the Creme de la Creme de la Creme" in my finest Jean Brodie accent.

Also if anyone ever points at something and says 'there' they will be subjected to 'There wolf, There Castle"

When I say 'flash' I always, always have Freddie Mercury on my shoulder singing 'Ah-ah! He saved every one of us!'

DH and I sing 'ah-ah!' after pretty much any one syllable reply

'Do you want anything from the shop?'
'Crisps!'
'Ah-ahh!'

I don't even know how it started

I'm another for Jammin' when fixing the printer. In fact any time a student reports a printer jam I alert them to the fact we call the printer Bob Marley. Cos it's always Jammin'.

I have this weird habit of if I have to do a presentation of some description I offer to do it in interpretative dance. Luckily nobody has taken me up on...

I can't say McDonald's without singing 'McDonald's, McDonald's, Kentucky fried chicken and a pizza hut'

I have to be Lady Bracknell when I say handbaaag 'handbag.'

If anyone says 'it's cold outside' I have to sing 'there's no kind of atmosphere'

Glad I'm not alone!

Whenever I see the 'Heavy Plant Crossing' road sign, I say that the triffids are coming - I blame my dad for that one.

I am sure I have lots of others - but I can't think of them right now - but I have found My People on this thread!

God I do loads of these too!
When DS and I go into he multi-storey carpark we always have to shout "Weeeeeeeeeeee" as we go down the slope.
If we go over a bump in the road or a humpback bridge i say "hold on to your hollyhocks" thanks mum
Or is we have to stop the car slightly quicker than usual i say "all hands on deck, stand by to ram" thanks dad
Definitely "stop, hammer time"
There's loads more but i can't remember them until i do them iyswim?

Whenever one of my children says "I can't ..." they get "Course you can Malcolm"

And when one of them does well in an exam "You got an Ology!"

Also "Put the kettle on Baldrick"

There's a car near us with KLF as part of the registration number, and whenever I see it I'm compelled to sing "Kaaay Ellll Effffffffff! UH HUH, UH HUH, UH HUH, UH HUH!" (young 'uns won't have a clue what I'm on about).
