"And I delay my debt another day."

"As the sun rises." (/probably/ in a way that confirms something as certain... "We'll catch them sure as the sun rises." If you can make it mean something else... brownie points!!!)
I love these! My novel has some time-traveling historical figures and I think they're going to need to have some of these. Napoleon gets, "Holy Cranberries!" and I think Catherine de Medici will say, "Oh, balls!" Love it!
I guess since I adopted I'll leave some too, I don't know how good these will be though! :D "Not if you own a motorcycle." "What would Chuck Norris do?" "And...I'm still awesome!"
I had created him in the form of a legend in my book. It's perfect! Thanks. I left a ton at the end of the thread if anyone needs so funny/crazy/or otherwise things to say and use.

Adopt a Catchphrase
I find these pretty fun in stories. They can kind of give a whole new tone to a character. :)

"Leave it at the door."
"Oh, balls!"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking 'Oh Balls.'

Leaving:
"It seemed like a good idea at the time."
"That wasn't a dream?"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "It seemed like a good idea at the time." thanks! :D
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
That's cliche, don't you think
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Lots of things are cliche. Doesn't mean they can't be good when they're used correctly.
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking 'At Least They Haven't Got a Bazooka.'" Will work perfectly for Colby.
Leaving: "I can't handle any more trouble today. Trouble, you're not allowed in until tomorrow!" Bonus points if Trouble is a person...
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase

"But we'll still look cool, right?"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "But we'll still look cool, right?"
Leaving:
"Aaand scene!"
"Ain't no plan like no plan at all."
"Let's cause some emotional trauma!"
"Time to do something extremely interesting."
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking, "Let's cause some emotional trauma!"
Leaving:
"I have a gut feeling!"
I don't need anyone!"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking, "I don't need anyone."
Much thanks.
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking, "I don't need anyone."
Leaving:
"Because that's normal..."
"Oh, is this not a good time to ask you something extremely important?"
"All right, then. Let's go ruin someone else's life."
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
TAKING: "Time to do something extremely interesting."
Leaving:
"OBVIOUSLY."
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "Time to do something extremely interesting."
Thanks so much!
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase

Leaving:

Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking " Time to do some thing extremely interesting"
Leaving:
"Isn't that kinda cliche?"
"And because we are so amazing we can sing about it!"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "But we'll still look cool, right?"
Leaving: "When are you going to get out of the ___ intern stage?"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "Just accept it." (Fit a character I've been struggling to flesh out perfectly.)
Leaving:
"I forgive you."
"Make me believe it."
"Truth or happiness? Your choice."
"Prove it."
"Evil? I'm not evil. I'm visionary."
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "Evil? I'm not evil. I'm visionary." Fits one of my characters perfectly!
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "Truth or happiness? Your choice." I love it. It's perfect for my villain's brother who happens to be a good guy.
"Truth or happiness? Your choice."'
"Um. Truth?"
"I'm Charlotte's older brother."
"NOOOOOOOO!" D: Oh noes face.
Haha. First situation I'll probably use it in.
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking "Evil? I'm not evil. I'm a visionary." Fits my 2nd to last scene perfectly. Thank you.
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
I think I am taking "I forgive you." I like the possibilities for honesty as well as facetiousness.
Leaving:
"Might've (or might'a) known it!"
"It's always somethin'."
"If it's not one thing, it's another."
"You're why we can't have nice things."

Or
"Oh My Gooseberry Fluff."
I actually use that XD
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
I love these! My novel has some time-traveling historical figures and I think they're going to need to have some of these. Napoleon gets, "Holy Cranberries!" and I think Catherine de Medici will say, "Oh, balls!" Love it!
I guess since I adopted I'll leave some too, I don't know how good these will be though! :D
"Not if you own a motorcycle."
"What would Chuck Norris do?"
"And...I'm still awesome!"
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
I needsome comic relief in my novel, I'm taking "And... I'm still awesome!". Because it's... awesome, I guess!
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
If I wasn't doing fantasy, I'd take the "What would Chuck Norris do?" That's awesome.
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
I would read that in a heartbeat!
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Taking 'What would Chuck Norris do?'
I had created him in the form of a legend in my book. It's perfect! Thanks. I left a ton at the end of the thread if anyone needs so funny/crazy/or otherwise things to say and use.

Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
"honey badger don't care" GENIUS. i would so create a character on that
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Awkward...though i like it. One of my charaters is owns a badger named honey because it loves honey. I am so taking 'Honey badger don't car."
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
Oh my goodness! I need a character that could use this!! XD
Re: Adopt a Catchphrase
