What's your kids' current catchphrase?

[dolo amber]

Inexplicably, my 5 year old's is "Tarnation!!". :rofl:

I'm curious to know what the *normal* kids are saying these days... :D

[LeftyMom]

1. Oh shazbot!

We watched the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror DVD the other night.

I think you'll have to find another family to represent the normal kids. ;)

[dolo amber]

4. Shazbot...

:rofl:

I ain't thought about that one in fo'evah. :D

[miss_american_pie]

2. Oh barnacles

Thank you, Spongebob.

[LynzM]

3. Well, mine's only 3....

Today's phrase is "it's the... I don't remember the word for them"

[XemaSab]

8. The other day I was talking to my mom

and I said "je ne sais quoi" and she said "Xema, I'm worried that you're using that phrase in lieu of thinking of actual descriptive words" and I cracked up so now I say it all the time ironically.

Don't tell your kid this. ;-)

[greatauntoftriplets]

18. Once my mother asked me for a definition of that phrase....

because she had encountered it in a book. I replied (helpfully or so I thought) "I don't know what". She said that she was surprised that I didn't know, considering I had studied French in school.

:rofl:

[supernova]

5. "I've got too much stuff"

No, seriously.

I was teasing the 3.5 year old about her xmas present that I got and that was her response. :D

[dolo amber]

11. Very nice

And very uncommon. :D

[Xipe Totec]

6. There's Three Kinds of People...

Stolen from Team America.

[Pale Blue Dot]

7. "I like pie!!!"

My son. Sarah's boys. Over and over. It never ends. :crazy:

[dolo amber]

16. I, too, like pie

So touche on them. :P

;)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

9. My catchphrase involves heavy swearing.

Typical teenage thing, or so I'm told. :D :D

[dolo amber]

10. I also have a teenager, and she never swears

Nope. Not her. Never ever shall a rude word cross her lips. Ain't gonna happen...

Ok, I'm gonna stop this now...I feel a lightning bolt comin' my way. :D

[WritingIsMyReligion]

12. Pffft....

I don't know if you caught my drift, but I don't HAVE a teen.... I AM one. :D :D

Lightning bolt coming straight at ya... :D :P

[JVS]

15. So, what's the catch-phrase?

[WritingIsMyReligion]

21. My mouth is so vile for a high-schooler's...

Really. :D :D It's not a specific catchphrase, really, just "swearing." I consider a good cuss at the wall a stress-relieving action.

[LeftyMom]

13. LeftyKid just walked up to me and said

"We're gonna need a bigger boat."

The odd thing is, we haven't watched Jaws since summertime so I have no idea why he suddenly thought of that. It did remind me that I should get the DVD, though.

[sendero]

14. "your mom"...

... and boy am I tired of it :)

[greatauntoftriplets]

17. One of the triplet boys (and they also are 5) likes to say.....

"The first thing is.... And the OTHER first thing is.... And the final first thing is...." while making multiple points in a conversation.

:shrug:

[Squatch]

19. It sounds like "Zha...zha...zha...zha"

He's 9 months old.

[purr]

20. SILENCE!

If I tell him to do something, I'll get 'SILENCE!'. I have NO idea where he got that from.. I dont use that word. I wonder if he learned it at pre-school.

:rofl:

Or.. thats ridculous!! He uses things in the correct context too. Scares me.

[dolo amber]

24. Very nice!

:D

I'm glad to know there's lots of craaaaazy kids out there. :toast:

[MiniMandaRuth]

22. Phef and flip, used instead of the f word, and:

"What the SCHPORK?!"

Back story: My friend on the jazz band bus to school tried to say spork, and ended up saying scpork. I turned that into schpork. In the time of about one hour (Social studies class) my friend and I turned that into a religion.

Yeah.

[RetroLounge]

23. "No!"

that's there answer to everything...

[Maddy McCall]

25. "I'm calling Child Protective Services!"

Pfft. Just kidding.

He loves to say Schiesskopf--he thinks no one else in the world knows that he's cursing in German.

[dolo amber]

26. ...

:rofl:

[seemunkee]

27. Butt - You're a butt, he's a butt, teachers are butts

She's 16 and said the f word in front of us for the first time this weekend.

[HEyHEY]

28. "Diana's a bitch" - I have no idea where he got that from

[Shine]

29. "Well, THAT'S random!"

this, from my 12 yr old 6th grader son....usually in response to whatever I've said.

my 9 yr old 3rd grader daughter likes to say her brother's name, with MUCH exasperation, because he frequently bugs her: i.e., "Jasperrrrrrrrr!!!!!"

[Maine Mary]

30. OMG I'm so busy....So what's up?

:cry: She's in college and working 2 jobs. But I miss her so...

Enjoy "tarnation" along with all the other words (he/she- all the "normal" ;-) kids) will come up with through those sweet innocent years.

[lady raven]

31. My 5 year old...

Oh Tartar Sauce!
