Default Fred's commonly used phrases.

Here are some: "You big dummy." "How would you like one across yo lips?" "I don't mind giving a lady one across the lips...." "You're crazy, you know that, Grady? They ought to call you 'Crazy Grady'."(1) "ARE YOU CRAZY ?!!"(2) "Him too." Also, he sang the Ink spot's "If I Didn't Care" a lot, and he'd say that Aunt Esther was a "bat."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frank: "Corporal Klinger." Klinger (salutes): "Sir." Frank: "How dare you wear that hat while in uniform." Klinger: "It's spring, sir."

I like the ripple nicknames he came up with and also when a woman told him that she never, Fred always had a comeback.

Notes from the starting thread: 1: Fred used this only once, and then Lamont used it. 2: Fred said it when he was standing close to the recipient's ear. More phrases: "Because of/on account of my arthuritis." "The 'G' is for...." "That's s-a-n, f-o-r-d, period."

Lamont: "You're a dirty old man, you know that?"

Fred: "And I'm gonna be one til I'm a dead old man."

He always had the funniest lines.

I forgot these three: 1)Fred's multi-part sentences such as this: "Godzilla eats New York. With a fork. And gets a thank-you note from President Ford." 2)His answering a question with a political question such as "Does Nixon need a tape recorder?" And 3)This: Fred:" I'm not gonna say another word." Lamont: "Fine." Fred: "I'm gonna keep my mouth shut." Lamont: "Good." Then Fred opens his mouth, of course.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fred (to party guest): "You bet your sweet -- " Lamont: "Pop!!" Fred: " -- it is."
