Someone told me one day to write down all my ideas,
So I thought why not?

"Quoting" Sayings
Okay I so don't understand it, but Canadians/Americans love the Australian accent.
I went out with Curtis a couple of days ago to meet some of his friends and one of his mates was just so interested in my accent and Australia, and it was weird. But with my foreign-ness in this country, other things have been coming out, as different quotes or phrases that I have, some being Australian, and some just being little quirks of me.
So it’s really a simple little blog, what sayings do you have that you say a lot?
Over the last two weeks, Curtis has instilled into me the saying "Good Times", it seems to fit the moment when it actually is good, or more importantly, when ironically it isn't. And it’s come to the point that Esther was counting how many times I said it one night, when a group of us went to see Kung Fu Hustle (awesome film if u like Kung Fu Comedies).
Another one of late has been, "Lets Kick this Puppy", mainly said during the editing of the Ignite Promotional Video that I have just finished (will be available on www.ignitegapyear.com soon). It (the puppy quote) mean, lets get going, or lets get this thing finished and in all honesty I have no idea where this saying came from because I'd really like to know.
My favourite Canadian saying that I have picked up is 'Sure'. Seriously some of the Canadians I've been around use this word way too much to get out of making decisions. "Hey u want to go to the movies?" "Sure" It doesn’t mean that someone really wants to do it but gives them the option to pull out, eugh, oh well I've been using in return :)
My other one, that I know at least one of my team members have picked up, is "Love your work"
Another few notable mentions, Freak Yeah (Mooolate ;), Nice.... (Ivany Family), Awww that’s nice (Bear)
So I guess the question is? What are some favourite Sayings/Quotes? Or even if possible what are some that you hear me always say?

I think the count got to about 12 within the first hour, and then I just gave up...
:P to u and ur comment (again!)
I think I remember you saying the word 'nuts' a lot... like 'It was nuts!'... But then again, I could just be kidding myself. I went through a 'hiLARious' stage, and Matt probably remembers that, but at the moment, I'm in a real 'Fabulous!' stage. "FABULOUS!"
I couldn't pass adding on..
"Frumpy-dumpy-da!"
And I'll keep you updated on the use of it in sentences...:P
"I Know!!!!" seems to be a little contageous around here at the moment! everyone's saying it! it's the coolest
awww i said hiLARious the other day, and no one was around to return it :(
Nuts huh? yeah i could see that
Nuts is very frumpy-dumpy-da now though :)
and I know? I guess it would be easier to know where that comes from if u weren't annonymous ;)
Ok there Mr. Moo, I'll comment on your blog. Stop twisting me arm!!! :P
Matt says - "It's true" a lot, as well as "Are you okay?". He is always asking that. Even if I am smiling and laughing.
As for me - I have no quirks or sayings because I am just sooo unpredictable, right Matt?
Do you bite your thumb at me sir?
Yeah "i'ts true" or "its twue" is a big one
The Homestar Freak comes out there
and well "are you okay?" that is ....
haha to the unpredictable
I hate you! And I hate the bands you like!!
*harsh comment for the day complete*.
;)
And a comment from the Disgruntled Ex Salvos, thank you for your voice ;)
ahhh grumblecakes. I think your bucket is on too tight :)
nothing better than a tight bucket
yeah you know, i have no idea what that means, just thought i should share it
main symptoms of foot-in-mouth disease: saying things without contemplating possible outcome, or for which you have no actual knowledge.
whatever it meant, I hope it was at least therapeutic for you to share it.
best regards.

Bawls. I need say nothing more.
