Have you ever noticed how certain people use certain phrases often enough that they become eternally connected in your mind? Some phrases that make me think of specific people...
"Can I just tell you..." - my best bud at school uses this one all the time. It is cute.
"I was SOOOOO mad." - This is my sister 110%. She used to say this all the time as a teenager and we used to all tease her about it. I hope she knows it was because it was funny, not because we were making fun of her.
"...on the whole entire face of the world." - My pal from college used to say this all the time and it would drive me crazy. There is just something wrong about it. I can't pinpoint what exactly, but it's not right.
"So, here's the thing..." - I'm not sure which of us started it, but this is a very common phrase in our house. It is always followed by, "So, what's the thing?" Always.
What are the phrases that instantly bring a face to your mind? What's the story behind them?
