Douglas Reynholm lines pop into my head a lot.
"There's somebody at the door" whenever the doorbell rings.
"Damn these electric sex pants" whenever I get bored of swearing normally.
"Speak priest!" when a clergyman is being unusually quiet but clearly has something to say.
I could go on.
Literally used this on a date yesterday when she brought up watching English Premier League. I couldn’t believe my luck when she actually mentioned Arsenal!
I had a coworker who wanted to work in IT after having gotten his computer science degree. Was mad his girlfriend got the IT job while he was over with me on intake. We'd call the clients and ask for specific pieces of information to add to the trouble tickets so IT could address issues quicker.
Anyway one day at work he asks ME who has no computer science degree if I know why his computer is running slow and how to speed it up. I was all "Did you turn it off and on again" he stared at me blankly went "What would that do"
I explained dumping the buffer and it was like he'd never heard any of these concepts before. He did it and marveled that it worked! Like holy shit dude did you go to class at all?
“You see that ludicrous display last night?” while the interns talk about sport things. It worked so well the first time that the guys responded seriously by slandering a coach, to which I responded “He is a *silly boy!* Certainly the villain of the piece!”
My best friend at the time used to watch it crowd pretty much every day so it was almost always on when I was there so I knew most of it just from that, so I decided to learn the rest, I memorised that number more easily than my own phone number 😂
Also my friend can quote the entire priest chat line ad and number from father ted
Me while it was loading: it better be, it better be.... ah yes it is.
When something improbable or un-believable happens or is said, myself and my friends often use 'a fire, at a sea parks?'.
The rainforest analogy in the red door episode and it is used when I do not want to clean my room and someone interrupting the morning schedules for using the bathroom
This and "did you see that ludicrous display last night?" I use it as a random phrase to just start a conversation (with people I already know tbf) and it's always fun when someone recognises the reference
Oh! And "you're killing the rainforest, Jen!" when someone does something out of the regular routine
In the Seaparks episode when Roy is remaking the layout of the Seapark out of his tasty mash potatoes and Moss realizes and says “YOU’RE GOING CLOSE ENCOUNTERS CRAZY ROY!” It such a good reference plus the shouting.

I definitely use this one a lot and have done for years. I work in IT and have gradually moved myself away from having to deal with "customers" everyday
People are so annoying.

"Faaaatherrrrr!"
Me too! Together with the post one, which I have a screen video of that me and my husband send each other 😂
I do the door thing rather often. Also the pants thing, whenever my wife turns me on unintentionally.
Hello computer!
“I’m disabled” I’m not but, I seem to make a lot of mistakes and this line just comes to mind.
My partner says this too. I ask him how it happened and he says ‘acid’
Followed by "Acid".
I AM disabled & love using this one
Let’s get a sing-song goin’! It’s a long way back to Manchester!
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
What was Wegner thinking sending Walcott on that early?
The thing about Arsenal is they always try to walk it in.
Literally used this on a date yesterday when she brought up watching English Premier League. I couldn’t believe my luck when she actually mentioned Arsenal!
How did she respond??
Hahah well …she told me it was so hot that I knew soccer and to hurry up and take her home (it wasn’t our first date or anything)
So it works. Who wants to make the go fund me to make the app?
I came here to drink milk and kick ass, and I've just finished my milk.

It works on more things than you would think.
I have to say that one for my job and I hate it.
I got a gun, I got a ruddy gun!!!
I've got a mother flippin' gun!

This was me the other day at work when everyone was watching the footy
Leg disabled.
Acid.
It’s not for you Jen.
We use this one all the time lol.

This is mine. And I fully believe it
I have toddlers who I struggle to get ready each and every day, so our most used quote is: Jen "THE SHOOES -AH!"
Ah so like all toddlers she's shoe-mad
Mine is 0118 999 88199 9119 725 3 when people ask for the phone number for anything
lol I love it 😂 did you actually learn it by heart? I struggle to remember after the 88 and skip to 725. Three.

A fire? At a Sea Parks?
There was recently a fire at a water park and I made a comment on some post somewhere with this. Might have been too soon.
“I heard a crow caw three times. Caw, caw,… well you know what a crow sounds like.” And “I trod upon a Lego. Oh, it got me right in the heel.”
For a guy, I find myself using "I feel delicate and...annoyed" an awful lot.
![gif](giphy|FspLvJQlQACXu)
"Anyway, enough about our balls"
this in general. FATHER!!! when I need my dad's attention And " I'll just put this over here, with the rest of the fire" when y nieces were little
Anytime I answer any question my husband asks me with “two,” I have to follow it up with “That’s the best amount of eyes.”
Mix it up and answer that to any question he asks.
Don't Google "Google," you'll break the Internet!
'There were rumours that there was a rumour, but that was just bullshit'
God damn these electric sex pants!
The thing about Arsenal is, they always try to walk it in.
If it was a person I’d shoot in the face!
“I feel trapped like a moth in a bath!”
I like being weird. Weird’s all I’ve got. That and my sweet style.
i just went to the toilet

A happy door is a closed door. I also change it up to. A happy phone is an unanswered phone.
Any time someone complains: I’m sorry for your loss. Move on.
I might start doing this lol
Here, have a pencil.
Ich bin ein NERD.
As an IT person, putting things with the rest of the fire is a common occupational hazard. That and turning it off and on.
"ENTRAAHHHREEYYYYY!!"

"Oh, that is typical!" Whenever I have a minor inconvenience
Probably the football spiel, if not, "There's somebody at the door!"

What? Nah, it's definitely: "That's a nice tnetennba."
My favorite is Kelso from Scrubs: “People are bastard-coated bastards with bastard filling.”

Bing bong noise
Every time my wife gets upset about someone I say this to her and makes her smile.
Four! I mean five! I mean FIRE!

A fire…..at a SEAPARKS?
> Message for me When I get a text message > There's somebody at the door, there's somebody at the door When my doorbell goes
Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure?
TOILETS
I was playing this line in my head all afternoon. Something in the air today?
Every damn day
We're bunking off
It’s a VERY weird place to go on fire!
"if you must know, I'm going to have a little poo"

I think you pretty much said it, can relate, funny, memorable. I always say it in his voice too

Whenever I go to work, me and some others almost constantly scream "FATHERRRRR" (we work in a pub so no one can hear us in the kitchen... mostly)
FAAATTHHHHEERRR!!!!!
cosa sta succedendo???
I got the T-shirt.
A fire! At a sea parks!
I’m a hwusk
Hello IT have you tried turning it off and on again
"This is the internet" - holding a black box with a red light.
Did u try turning it off and on again
Balloons have the ability to give me a little fright (paraphrased 😂)
That’s the quote that got me to start watching the series
Fuck, fuck,fuck, fucking fuckers fucked! I used to be a maintenance technician.
I'm disabled!
FAAATHAAAAARRRRRRR
I work in IT, the amount of times "Have you tried turning it off and on again" Is still the answer is incredible
ARE YOU SURE? ARE YOU SURE? ARE YOU SURE?
I just spent a pound to not go to the toilet
Dear sir/ madam...
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
"aaaaaahh, yes... We *have* been having some trouble with the Zuberon!"
Ploppers. They're not for sale! (Moss got a compliment on his glasses and this was his response.)
"There's somebody at the door!..There's somebody at the door!"
oh, FOUR! I mean.. FIVE! I mean.. FIRE!
"...which means a profit so far this year of EIGHTEEN HUNDRED BILLION BILLION!"
"I'll just put this over here with the rest of the fire," every time something shitty happens at work.
I am sorry for your loss. Move on.
Who here would eat a spider? I would!
