• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Catchphrases?

I often say: "Dat's some offensive powah!" when I unexpectedly beat someone in a Pokémon game in one hit without a critical. Also, I used to say: "Defeat them", emphasizing the "f". As for strange sounds, there is a weird meow/growl sound that I sometimes use when interacting with my cat, but when around humans, its meaning is somewhere around "You understand me, right?" and "Does this remind you of the same thing it reminds me of?" I also tend to say: "Oh great [some random nonsense]" when I am surprised. For example: "Oh great shell of Hoenn!"
 
"STOP NAGGING." To my parents only, but my goodness does it happen a lot.

Also me using words whose meaning I've managed to piece together from their roots and prefixes and completely missing the connotation so that I confuse the hell out of whoever I'm talking about. Example" Apathy.

My definition: Lack of feelings.
Connotation: Lack of caring.

Honestly, I fail to see how that makes sense.
 
That would be. "Indeed. Wait, what was it that you said?" I, also, am a bit of a cloudcuckoolander.
 
The killer "no worries" and "no problem" are my most annoying.

"Abosolutely" comes a close second.

Other than that I tend to hiss, with a slightly different articulation to differ between annoyance and amusment.
 
Most of my mannerisms are often used when simply joking around with my friends, but I have a habit of hissing at people who annoy me. I also say "What the balls?" a lot, apparently.

I've also been known to make weird noises when I screw something up during public speaking, so it'll be like "For never was a story of more woe, than that of Ruli--Joli--BLURGHURGHURGH--Juliet and her Romeo."
 
Saying things are "wondrous" and pronouncing it phonetically; i.e. "one-driss" instead of "one-durr-iss".

I'm... pretty sure wondrous has two syllables normally? o.o

Yeah, everybody I know says "WON-driss" or "WON-druss".

I tend to say "Oh" and "Ah" in conversation a lot because a lot of friends get mad if I don't make some noise/type something to indicate that I heard them/read their text.

Also, "...What?" or "Wat" has become common when I'm kind of mystified or perplexed by something.

That's about all I can think of, but I used to have this habit of making up random consonant-heavy words when I got mad or just sort of miffed. It led to such gems as "Pnifblarg".

I describe things as "glorious" more than most. And "grand" (as in "That okay?" "That's grand"), which I believe is an Irish thing I've picked up off my mother.

'Tis indeed.

For me, my main one follows this basic formula;

Someone else: "STATEMENT"

Me: "Fair enough"/"Apparently"/"Evidently"/"If you say so"/"I'll take your word for it"

Even I get annoyed by it now but I can't stop.
 
When I'm pissed I tend to say some pretty random shit. Half the time I don't even remember it. I just know I yelled at that guy in Modern Warfare, what I actually said, and what it meant, I have no clue. I also yell random things that come out as random sounds that in no way shape or form can be put into words.

Also when I am losing at a video game, I start to make monkey sounds... and I actually play better. So much to the point my friend refers to it as "releasing the monkey"

I also do the triple "what?" from Doctor Who. Where the Tenth Doctor would go "WHAT?!... What?.... What." in a very specific tone each time. I also say "frak" "fuck me freddy" "NO just NO!" and when I am mad I tend to say something starting with "Son of a-" an it extends into something I don't know what. Like "SON OF A DOG LORD LOVING THIRD BRED HORSE RADISH!". I think I said that once. When I mess up at something I say "fuck me". I also yell at people to go defenestrate themselves. Let's see, "shinizzle" "derp/you are made of derp/derp face" "fail/you are made of fail sauce with a side of SHIT!"

Upon reading this I have learned I am an angry violent person.
 
I have a few

I tend to use the world "Zeal" more then normal.

"Indeed" is my general response to something that I agree with.

"fair eno..." Wait not gonna finish that I say it to much and it annoys Phantom.

and let's not forget the almighty "ZEAL WAFFLE PANCAKES" don't ask I was just really REALLY bored. >.>

'I'm Well Aware', when people tell me something I already know.

'He, I'm Sorry?', In a REALLY THREATENING WAY if I've been insulted.

'Speaking of X, how's A?'. Like, someone is talking about something, like porn, and I say "Speaking of porn, how's the economy'. Of course, I'm an idiot, so instead I say things llike "Speaking of porn, how's your sister?....NO! I didn't mean it like that!"

Just remembered one, I say "uber" a lot, "lolwut" in chats, "Tumbleweed" won't get to far into that one. "funfun" and "Fantastic" and "allons-y" and "are you my mummy?" are some of my favorites to use from Doctor Who, also "You're a tin dog". Whoever gets the reference gets the free invisable cookie.

When I DM and I want to kill the party for being stupid "Rocks fall everyone DIES".
 
I say "hm" a lot wen I speak. I tend to also use words like apparently and therfore, as if I'm constantly solving an equation.

That's about as close as I get to a catchphase.
