Expressions I’m going to start using at completely inappropriate times
“There’s our tax dollars hard at work.”
“Must be nice…”
“Like they say, you can catch more flies with honey.”
“TGIF!”
“Not if I see you first!”
It’s a working list, so I’m open to suggestions.

I’ve always been fond of my mom’s favorite: “Shape up or ship out!”

Ya got your head so caught up in the sugar business, you forgot the taste of real honey.

I always like to ‘Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays’ but use it on any other day than Monday.

Well, you know what they say…sometimes you drink the milk, and sometimes the milk drinks you.
It’s my personal fave.

“That’s what s/he said” is always a good one too.

I think “Congratulations on your pregnancy!!” works really well at odd times.

These are all excellent! I’m imagining the inappropriate situations in which to use them:
1. “Sick – someone just vomited in the ladies room!”
“Every cloud has a silver lining!”
2. “Will that be paper or plastic?”
“Shape up or ship out!”
3. “What the heck did I do with my keys?”
“Ya got your head so caught up in the sugar business, you forgot the taste of real honey.
4. “TGIF!”
“Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays!”
5. Tracy Lynn – yours pretty much needs no intro – it stands all by itself!
6. “My cat ran away last night.”
“That’s what she said”
7. “Sick – someone just vomited in the ladies room!”
“Congratulations on your pregnancy!”

I think it’s time for “Kiss my grits!” to come back into our vernacular. That and a nice “Where’s the Beef?!” is fun to throw around every week or so.

“It’s better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.”
Look, my grandma was a very practical girl from Nebraska. I can’t help that.

“Kneel before Zod!”

Even a blind hog roots up an acorn sometimes… or my dad really makes it his own, just saying “even a blind hog”

I have no suggestions for inappropriate phrases, but I would like to request that you post instances in which you use some of these. Please?

“Back at ya” where “at ya” is pronounced “atchya” or “Right back at ya” if the cadence sounds better. Always good with a wink and finger gun salute.

I like the “six of one…” bit.

Next time you go out on a first date with a guy, you should grab his crotch as soon as you meet him and yell, “The early bird gets the worm!!”

It may be juevenile, but I find that replying “Your Mom!” to various statements is often highly inappropriate and completely hilarious.

Girl con Queso: OMG – I love Flo! My friends were contemplating dressing up as the cast of Alice for Halloween. I, of course, wanted to be Flo simply so I could say, “Kiss my grits!”
Shari: Wow – that really is chock full of midwestern modesty, isn’t it?
Sween: Niiiiice!
Margaret: I may steal that one!
kapgar: Ha – I’ll do my best!
Michael: Well, thanks for the visit and link!
Claire: Any time I can use the gun fingers, I’m happy.
Trisha: That definitely can be used at inappropriate times.
THB: You first…
Dustin: I’m not afraid of juvenile, although I thought you might have suggested something more along the lines of, “He who controls the spice, controls the universe!”

I’ve always been fond of bellowing the occasional, random “Here I come to save the day!”
