View Full Version : Made-up expressions
Steve M. 03-29-2005, 10:39 PM Anyone have any made-up expressions?
Sometimes when I'm frustrated, or if something goes wrong, I'll say "Sweet Jane!" or "Sweet Melinda!" The former is a Velvet Underground song, the latter is a lyric from Bob Dylan's "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues."
On the morbid side, when someone dies, I tend to say, rather than "He kicked the bucket" or "He bought the farm," "He received the weaver's answer." That's because in Family's song "The Weaver's Answer," the song's protagonist is an old man who asks the "weaver of life" to show him his life as a tapestry. When he receives a positive answer from the weaver (who reperesents the Lord), he realizes why he's getting to see his tapestry - because he's about to die! :(
I also say things like, "Osama bin Laden wishes the weaver's answer on America."

phoebe7165 03-30-2005, 01:35 AM Well, with the potty mouth that I have, instead of saying "For God's sake" or "For Heaven's sake" when I get frustrated, I'v been saying "For f***'s sake". I don't know why. I never heard anybody else use that expression.
Brian 03-30-2005, 02:08 AM I've never made it up but sometimes when I get really frustrated I say, "Jesus tapdancing Christ." I've even had a dream where I kept saying that to someone. :lol:
Hollow 03-30-2005, 02:09 AM I've never made it up but sometimes when I get really frustrated I say, "Jesus tapdancing Christ." I've even had a dream where I kept saying that to someone. :lol:

ABlairican Pie 03-30-2005, 02:16 AM There's an expression I made up for myself when something sounds interesting:
There's a screenplay in there somewhere. :idea:
My favorite saying between my roomate and I is "Really?"
We use that alot when we are are out. It fits in very well in any circumstance.
Belair 03-30-2005, 06:52 AM "Hell No Way"
Its my way of saying "NO WAY". :lol:
MandieR1980 03-30-2005, 12:05 PM I used to yell "Funky buttloving cheese doodles" when I was younger, I have no idea where I got that from.
TripperFan 03-30-2005, 12:38 PM Well, with the potty mouth that I have, instead of saying "For God's sake" or "For Heaven's sake" when I get frustrated, I'v been saying "For f***'s sake". I don't know why. I never heard anybody else use that expression.
(unfortunately) I use it all the time and have for years!!
The other one my dad used to use when he was REALLY mad was
"Jesus H. Bald-headed, F&*$ing Christ" It was bad, but colorful!!
Number 9 Dream 03-30-2005, 04:07 PM I say "Goddamn it to hell on a sled"....and I have no idea what that means but I like the idea of someone going to hell on a sled...just seems like bastardly thing to do.
Belair 03-30-2005, 11:04 PM Well, with the potty mouth that I have, instead of saying "For God's sake" or "For Heaven's sake" when I get frustrated, I'v been saying "For f***'s sake". I don't know why. I never heard anybody else use that expression.

¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 04-01-2005, 12:25 AM I tend to say 'for the love of God and all things Clayton' a lot. I also say 'for the love of God and William H. Macy'. Yah I dunno where that guy comes in. I heard his name once and ugh.. just stuck.

Steve M. 04-01-2005, 12:36 AM I read that Harry Truman always said "Jesus Christ and General Jackson," then I started saying that, then that led to "Uncle Albert and Admiral Halsey," after the Paul McCartney song, but that sounded kind of fruity! :bonk:

:lol: OMG! William H. Macy? He's a really creepy and goofy (all at the same time) looking guy that was in the movie Fargo! He's been in a lot of other things too. Actually is a good actor, but odd looking IMO! That's funny!
