If you had a dumb-sounding catchphrase, what would it be?

But, like, you couldn't just say it; you'd have to yell it, like it was the most exciting and dangerous and drop-dead sexy phrase in the world. Like,
SWIGGITY SWAAAG
WHAT'S IN THE BAG
if it was easy it would be done.
Sounds better in Portuguese: Se fosse fácil estaria feito.
I add "Someone pays, if not with material resources, then directly with TIME. And if not the receiver of the "free" lunch, someone else SOMEWHERE did to make up for it."
i dont have a catchphrase but a quote that i made
I also use to answer "How are you today?" with the phrase "As good as the weather." As I find both topics as unnecessary silent fillers. Might as well kill both at once.
Not because the weather is particularly bad, just that it's about the most fickle thing to base anything on.
And talking about it is not "unecessary filler".
Speculating about whether we are going to get a summer is a conversation that is always relevent to anybody British.
I kinda knew how is to recieve compliment that is not true (like, I was told my art is top notch from someone on this forum, even though I know it is definitely not. I even have weak fundamentals). But in that instance I would rather just say "thank you" and accept it. I prefer feel good than feeling miserable. I've been throught the latter phase in my life and the last thing I want is to get back to it.
That being said, everyone has different point of view and "false" compliment from my P.O.V could be seen as geniue from person giving that compliment.
Sorry for the off-topic.
PS.
Yes.
Usually spoken to uncooperative inanimate objects.
Getting cranky as I get older...
Not really a catchphrase, but the beginning of the insane ramblings of the supercomputer AM in I have no mouth and I must scream. Friends and I use it when we are angry or don't like something. Because whatever the issue, it doesn't seem so bad when you try to apply AM's vast and disproportional amounts of hate to it.
“Better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven”
Its Milton, so its obviously isnt dumb-sounding. But using it in everyday life is overrated if you ask me....
Here's mine...
I mean - the romance.
"Ain't dead yet."
Has been generally the reply to my parents when asked about any of our dozens of cats, dog, goat, horses, myself, or anyone/anything else for the last couple years.
As you might expect, I was getting tired of being asked about them on a daily basis and "They're fine" was getting monotonous.
That itself is getting monotonous, so I think I'll have to change it up.
Also, a testament to the dog not being dead yet from old age. It has to be pushing 10 years at least.
This is mine.
