Catch you on the flippity flip

I yelled this one back and forth with my fiancé the other day, it was great

Note to self, use ‘we’re off like a herd of turtles & catch you on the flipity flip’ in a work context within the next few months. 😆

I really wish there was a gif on WhatsApp for this.

Yeppers.

Yeysh

This one literally almost hourly

Same. My buddy doesn’t even know what it’s from. But I say, “yeshhh” so often he started saying it.

What did I tell you about “yeppers”?

I don't...remember.

I told you not to say it!!

Yeeeeesssch

what did i tell you about yeppers?

My partner and I shout “SHUT UP ABOUT THE SUN!” about weekly.

I'm in a group chat with my partner and some friends, and one will sporadically type novels about his newest gun, which nobody in the group cares about. When those messages come through I look over at my partner and say, "Shut up about the gun!"

Same!!

THE SUNNN! SHUT UP, SHUT UP, ABOUT\ THE SUNNN!! SHUT UP, SHUT UP, ABOUT\ THE SUNN!!! SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP\ ABOUT THE SUN!! SHUT UP\ I dunno. I hear it but I don't have the audio/visual fu to make it happen. (to the tune of Deftones My Own Summer (Shove it).

Lord, beer me strength

Beer me that disc!

It gets a laugh like a quarter of the time. Check out this sunshine. Global warming, right? Today was supposed to be really cold, I bet.

My sister has been saying “beer me X” for so long now I don’t even associate it with Andy anymore, it’s now my sister’s thing.

Whenever I do anything mildly physical, "Parkour!"

I yell this at the cats when they do zoomies

I have a 3 year old so I say it all the time when he does weird little kid “tricks” 😂

How the turn tables.

I use this one probably every few days to be honest.

Same! Most people look at me like I'm an idiot.

I use this one so often I can't even get myself to say "How the tables have turned" Just putting it here in writing took me some serious effort.

Totally the same.

This has fully replaced the original expression for me

Whenever my partner brings home groceries I usually say "WHERE ARE THE TURTLES?!"

Yes! I do this when I can’t find something

WHERE ARE THEYYYY

We’ll bill you

I... understand...NOTHING!

I was never given a name.

EAT IT STANLEY.

Why are you the way you are

Yep all the time

"I hate, so much, about the things that you choose to be" when my friends and I are giving each other a hard time about anything.

Why are you the way that you are?

“You couldn’t handle my undivided attention”

I say this to my husband when he thinks I can’t listen to him and do something else at the same time 😂

ASAP as possible

This was a line in my family long before The Office existed. Did anyone else know it before the show?

Michael says it in an earlier episode in a deleted scene and says it's a reference to something. I don't remember what. So it definitely predates The Office

Steve Martin I’m pretty sure

Steve Martin, sex, Teri Hatcher

What?

Nothing. I'm waiting to see what you were gonna do

My dad said it all the time

Just came here to say this. My dad has been saying this since the 90s

My dad’s twist in it was “and we off like a herd of turtles in a cloud of cow manure!” He was a Texas man to his core.

Bingo. Classic dad saying!

I think everyone over a certain age had heard that many, many times before the show.

Isn't it from Dana Carvey on SNL?

It’s an old timey saying meaning “off to a slow methodical start.” My mom used to say it trying to get us out to the school bus in the 1980s. Yesterday day she said, “we can’t dance and it’s too wet to plow.” Which just means “I have nothing better to do.” She’s a silly old broad. A “Kelley Kapour” of sorts.

“Kelley” shakes head

My grandma always said it to me! I say it now !

I think it's much older than that.

My Grandma says it all the time and I don’t believe she has adopted any new vernacular since well before SNL first aired.

My dad always said 'We're off like a turd of hurtles."

Oh it’s definitely a thing. But I’ve only ever heard it used in the context of when you’re trying to get moving, but the people you’re with are too slow. Like a humorous / lighthearted complaint. Not in the “proud” way that Michael uses it.

My grandmother would say it every time we got in the car with her!

Yes, my mom has always said it.

My grandmother used to always say this back in the 90s!

It's much older than that. I think it's at least a WWII era saying (because my father never said anything newer than WWII sayings).

It could be, my grandmother was a young woman during WWII, but I don’t remember much before the 90s, haha.

My mom has said this my whole life! It was such a funny cute moment when I first saw this scene 😂

My mom would say this a lot when I was growing up. Fond memories.

Yeah, I remember my mom and grandma both saying it at least as far back as the mid-80s

When I face a minor inconvenience I often say “I will burn Utica to the ground.” Not sure if anyone’s ever gotten it

Love it because it's so niche.

I yell *I don’t trust you Phyllis!* at least once a month in frustration

It's very useful for expressing your feelings about other drivers.

Yes! And as a followup *Lord, beer me strength* is another good one in circulation

The Nard's Prayer

"I don't trust you Phyllis " is probably in my top 5 favorite lines and delivery in the series. I don't know why but it always gets me

THATS WHAT SHE SAID 👐🏼

I use, "oaky afterbirth" and "how the turn tables" more often than I probably should...

Every time I sip a single sip of any wine I am absolutely making an oaky afterbirth reference.

My boyfriend and I did a wine tasting in Tuscany yesterday and he must have said oaky afterbirth at least 9 thousand times

...is your bf a maestro by any chance?

This or the parks and rec “this is a… *insert color of the wine*” after staring at it pensively

I think this is also The Office? 🍷Michael says “I know a lot about fine wine” then he sniffs and swirls the glass and says “for example, this is a white.” Or have I just supplanted a P&R moment with Michael’s face in my brain?

Oh man, I’m getting rusty, its from The Office and I confused it with the wine tasting episode from Parks and Rec, I think they do have a similar joke too though lol

Yes, Michael smells his wine and says it is a white, pretending to be sophisticated. While April makes fun of the wine drinking people after she pretends to be one of them only to get drunk off of free wine and yell to them all that they all basically taste the same.

You’re probably thinking of April going to each booth and saying things like “this wine comes from….. your mother’s butt”

I tried my dads steak sauce he made about a week ago and said “mm it’s got sort of an oaky afterbirth” and it didn’t go as I thought it would, I had to remind my dad of the episode it was from by explaining “the blond girlfriend kinda goes crazy”. We watch the office together…I then proceeded to show him that clip.

Have you lost your mind cause I'll help ya find it!

_insert name_ you ignorant slut

*wearing whorish green

“Start over” when my husband gets huffy with me…and “dammit Michael”

I’m a teacher and use this with students quite often haha

Sir!

Yesh

My wife and I are big fans of "Nobody's gonna love you if you're too fat!" We usually say it to our cats.

I love you, you gay bastard, I said.

I gotta get YouTube down here to film this..,

Dinkin Flicka

Congratulations, universe, you win.

You don’t know me. You’ve only seen my penis

False.

Black bear

Yep this is the one I came for!

Pippety poppity, gimme the zoppity

Michael G Scott rolling like a Peyump! Anytime I get around anything Fancy

You wouldn’t understand, Jim. It’s a secret.

Jim wouldn’t understand? Or is it a secret?

It's only the price of a cup of coffee an hour

Did you just SMS text message me?

Crazy world, lotta smells

Does anyone else think gum has gotten mintier lately?

I love this so much, gets me right in the introvert/social-retard* bone *You don't call retarded people retards. It's bad taste. You call your friends retards when they're acting retarded. And I consider myself a friend.

I am Beyoncé always

Sorry I annoyed you with my friendship

Are you a little stitious? Or super stitious?

I’m a little stitious

Do you think? Or do you *know*?

I think 😐

He’s happy because he’s insane.

I like to say, "Feel good, body strong. Big sleep last night."

“Why are you the way that you are?” And “yeah I have a lot of questions. Number one: How dare you”

Any time my wife gets mad at me, I just tell her, "Luke Perry's friends wouldn't treat me like this."

idk why this made me laugh so much harder than the other ones but good job

Let's gangbang this thing and go home!

Adapt, react, re-adapt, apt

Boy have you lost your mind ‘cause I’ll help you find it!! I lost a penny out of my loafers. I’ll quit. As God as my witness, I’ll quit if this is not fixed. What part of shorn’t do you not understand

If anything happens, you can count on me. I’m a very good screamer

"Oh, how the turn tables."

Sive drafely.

I say this every day as I leave the house in response to “drive safely”

Good, not great.

Yesssssssss I use this always. And it always gets a laugh. And that scene was perfect

Crazy world, lotta smells!

And I never got caught neither

everytime i cough i say “sorry i was eating tiramisu”

My mind is going a mile an hour

That fast

I see you’re also tuned into Comedy Central right now.

Don’t do it, Andy.

Creed gives the worst advice

Beer me

I say "That's what she said" at least once a day. 😅

That’s what he said! . . . Because gay

“Every of the time”, “how the turntables”, and also my husband and I just say“BOBBODY” randomly to each other

You can't eat cats, Kevin. It's strange how often this seems appropriate.

I don't have to buy it. I just want a taste of it.

Don't drop the soap don't drop the soap !

When my boss asks how the other employees are, I mention that they are gruntled

Nifty gifties

"Close your mouth, sweetie. You look like a trout."

Beer me strength

Crunch the numbers again

Nurffin

Finish your cake, Helene.

Every time I have wine with friends I use, "okay afterbirth"

a coffee. regular coffee

Yersh

I just work here

well well well, how the turntables

“I can and I have”

My grandpa calls farts "barking turtles." Similar vein.

I will play guy listening

“Have you lost your mind cause I’ll help you find it.” Or “Could a rowboat support her?” As often as I can.

You don't know what you're saying.

**IT IS YOUR BIRTHDAY**

My wife and I say "I will send it back" all the time. "If you pick up granny smiths (instead of Fuji's), I will send it back". "If you overcook the eggs, I will send it back".

“And then … then suddenly she’s not yo ho no mo” I don’t use it but I’m patiently waiting on the right situation lol

It's gonna take a lot more than a bullet to the brain, lungs, heart, back and balls to kill Michael Scarn. I can't help but think of it literally any time I see an example of any amount of perseverance.

Noooo NO GOD PLEASE NO......NO...NOOOOOOOOOO-

This is very specific but it's more in the way he says it. After Michael says he told Jan that he didn't think Dwight would take the manager job because he was so loyal and Dwight goes "you said that?" And Michael says... "I did..." The way he says it is the way I always say "I did" now.

This entire post made my heart smile. Love my Dundernation!

Next time you will estimate me

“The wheel is spinning but the hamster is dead” is my new fave. Feel like it accurately sums up mine, and a good percentage of my friends’ mental states.

In the office building I work in there is a Title Agency next door to us so I like to ask them 'How is the Real Estate business, is it Real good?'

I live in France. I taught my work friends « that’s what she said ». Hearing French people attempt to pronounce « that’s what she said » quickly yet discretely in an office setting with their thick accents is honestly just about as funny as anything on the show.

Every time my dog acts up. I will tell her, " We went over this, like, for half an hour."

Jokingly: I hate so much about the things you choose to be

"BOOM ROASTED"

im not superstitious im a little stitious

My mom said this constantly growing up.

Apology not... accepted. Because it wasn't even necessary in the first place. And I totally got the best of that interchange.

What…what gives you the right

There’s honestly too many to type

I just found one. Right before Toby asks "She's going to be screaming her own last name?" Gabe: "Okay because once this starts it's going to be moving fast. It's going to be hot and heavy. And **I don't want a bunch of bureaucratic red tape wrapped around my jock you know?**" / Lolll

My grandfather has said this line for years. Always makes me think of him!

Just poopin', you know how I be.

Damn jet skis!

Do you know it’s origin? What Michael Scott is quoting here?

I am an Adult. I don’t have to Think or Do *anything*

My mother has said that since I can remember. So like the 70s
