There's a topic like this over on the Homestar Runner forum, and I thought, hey, Ozy and Millie is pretty quotable, why not see.<br><br>So the question is, have you ever been in a conversation or situation that made you think of an Ozy and Millie quote, and then you used it? Me, I've probably done it a couple times, but I can't remember any offhand.

I do ti a lot. There are a lot of things in O7M that can be aplied to life. I see a situation that reminds me of soemthign in one of the strips or a poitn taht can be made that was made weel in oen of the strips and I don;t hesitate to use it. There are too meny examples to list.

Yes. Yes I do. How can you not quote it?<br><br>But I have an ingenious scheme. I quote it, and link to the quote and thus new people get hooked on Ozy and Millie. <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo--> Its win-win!

Not in daily conversation, translation sucks. On the <span style='font-size:11pt;line-height:100%'><b>I</b></span>nternet, very occasionally. Most O&M quotes are too weird to use in a meaningful conversation <!--emo&:P--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I quote O&M on a very daily basis. 'Course, I happen to be famous as a double-talker, so some O&M phrases are much more common than others. I seem to find meaningless conversation much more fun than anything worth quotable value.

Sometimes people quote the strip to me, then have to explain that's what they're doing. Apparently some of you know what I've written much better than I do. <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I can't remember exact quotes, but one morning I did go downstairs to my kitchen when my housemates were hungover and tried to start the day with a song in my heart by singing "Enter Sandman" very loudly <!--emo&:wag:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ailwag.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tailwag.gif' /><!--endemo-->

The only line I'm likely to quote is the one about ADD: "If you don't like the weather, wait ten seconds."

Actually, I seem to have developed the tendency to remark "Joy and rapture" in a thick layer of sarcasm when appropriate. Generally when I'm in a doctor's office, or when I'm told to wait for a not insignificant period of time.

Whenever someone calls me cynical, I reply with "Define Cynical" <!--emo&:wag:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ailwag.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tailwag.gif' /><!--endemo-->
