I was down the pub earlier talking to someone about how s**t the work situation was right now & managed to drop "It's so dark all over Europe" into the conversation .
Have you ever managed to crow bar a Sisters lyric into a day to day conversation?
I dare you

In the english lesson my class mate said "Your english sounds funny!" and I replied "I'd buy another if it was for the money". Well, he didn't understand at all.

I quite often squeeze in the odd reference - to both knowing and innocent audiences... most regularly "I don't know why you have to be so undemanding (I want more)"
...if in a bit of a spot ... "my guardian angel walks away" actually I just realised I do it a lot

I always have the urge to add "& it tastes funny" when anyone says "small world", but always seem to resist.
Not anymore!
That's the equivalent of an open goal.

Yes, I use "don't be afraid now, just walk on in" when trying to sound encouraging about something!!!

If you really must (and I'm not encouraging you) then at least get the words right: it
smells funny. There's no evidence that Von ever tasted it.

This was in a set of photos from an art show opening. Nothing to do with me, so no idea, but it warmed my little heart:

Next time you must put sunglasses on, take some pole or broom and start singing "...and it smells funny, I'd buy another...." sing the whole song, dance like
and don't stop. Then turn back to the conversation as if nothing has happened.

Well, not really, but it would be spiffy.

Waiting for one of our punters with the engine running, whilst he's on the phone.
Punter (to the phone): What is it?
Me: It's a semi-automatic, get in the car!

Today my friend went to the toilet and I said to myself "I hear a roar of the big machine...". It's easy to use SOM lyrics in real life

My friend put a picture up on facebook of her with
red ribbons in her hair...
I commented "
and she looked good in ribbons..."
All I got was a
"That's rather creepy"
Damn you world

story behind it is...
