Let me explain something to you..... That makes me want to run and hide.

I'll call you.-- Don't even bother lying to me, you might as well say, the next time you see me I'll be dating someone shorter than you.

How tall are you??
 
The line I've heard too many times and hope I NEVER hear again...

"I'm afraid he/she has taken a turn for the worse".... :sad:
 
"I'm not a racist but..........." I just know I'm not gonna like what follows.

Or similar to that is "I'm not trying to be racist or anything but..."


:rolleyes:

That's right up there with, " No offense but....." Well if you don't mean to offend then shut up!!

Swedish Meatball--I'm 6'0
 
The all new version of _________. Insert a classic movie title there. :sad2:

We will be under new management but nothing is going to change. Yeah, right. And I have this great bridge I can sell you for cheap. :rolleyes:

There's a small tornado in _________. Pick a central Florida town. In my mind there is no such thing as a small tornado.

Wait until next year. The Red Sox Nation lament (except for 2004) :p
 
When my dh says, "Oh, we don't need to call anyone for the (plumbing, roofing, concrete work, etc...). I'll figure out a way to do it myself."

Roughly translates to: It'll still be like this in 6 months, so don't hold your breath.

OR when he says, "Don't throw that (nail/mayonnaise jar/3 year old Christmas card) out! I can use that someday!"

Roughly translates to: I'll leave it on the counter/coffee table/dresser for 3 weeks until you secretly pitch it out while I'm napping, then I'll never notice it's gone! :lmao:

Gotta love him. ;)
 
I volunteer with an ambulance squad and before I walk into the house: "He's about three hundred pounds and he's having A LOT of trouble breathing" (Has happened more than you think)
or
"oops" (especially in the back of an ambulance) :rolleyes:
or
"I thought this would be a good project for you" :rotfl:
or
"I love you but..." :guilty:

There must be certain phrases which for some reason just strike fear into you?

Normally for me it is,


model-turned-actress

which was before I'd seen the Scorpion King, where it now is,


wrestler-turned-actor


Which phrase hits you with dread?


i think they're both bad. both times, it really never turns out to be a good idea anyway.
 
Message left on cell phone without any further information - "Call me as soon as you can."

or "I need to tell you something."

or, like when I took DS (6 mo old at the time) to the hospital for wheezing, they marked "urgent" on his chart, rushed him back and said, "Are you here alone?"
 
How about....

New and Improved!!!!

If it's new, then what exactly did they improve?

Really........must be related to my DH. Boy, could I tell you stories.. :rotfl:


Gotta second the "can I see you in my office for a second" from the boss (or the guy who thinks he's the boss :rotfl2: )

"Aspiring Rap Star" ..... 'nuf said

"When you get a minute, can you look something up for me?" Duh, look it up yourself.....its on the dept. drive on the computer. Just look for it, why does my job seem more trivial than yours, that I can stop what I'm doing to look it up FOR YOU!.......Jerk

Or "send it to me"..........see above :confused3
 
When my kids start a sentence with....."I know your gonna be mad......."
 
"the radiologist would like a couple of more views of the _____ breast.."
 
When my boss says, 'Come in and shut the door, we need to talk'. For those fleeting seconds I try to remember what the heck I could of done now?! :confused:
 
Anything beginning with, or pertaining to, the words "Paris Hilton" ...
 
Oh, there's two that just fill me with dread:

"Good morning, Stephaannniieee..." or "Guess who's gonna be here today?"

Ugghhh...only one person says good morning like that, and it's the same one that I wouldn't have to guess about being there...our satellite office manager, who is stupid as hell and I can NOT stand him!!
 
This message endorsed by...............
 
From DH:

"I'm really pissed...." This ALWAYS precedes something bad. ALWAYS. DH can take care of almost anything, but sometimes even he can't and then he always starts the sentence that way...

"I'll get it done." Yeah. Right. :rotfl:

I had always dreaded the "Can you come see me?" before my job and boss change. My current boss isn't the "strike fear into your heart" type unless you do something REALLY wrong. But with my new job I inherited 13 new direct reports and it took me a couple of times before I realized I now can strike terror with that phrase. I now add the why. It seems to help.
 
When the dentist says. "Now you may feel a little pressure."

or when the doctor says "All you will feel is a little pinch."

To me thats kind of like saying "look the bullet just left a little hole" :rotfl2:
