This isn't a super exciting one, but it's good to know that, eight years in, the Brokieisms are still happening.

Friend, texting about our lunch date tomorrow: Is 1:45 OK?

Me: You bet!

Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I'm a member of another forum, and someone was having an issue of some sort that they wanted opinions on.  He titled his thread "Goddamned Bitch of An Unsatisfactory Situation".


I prefer GDBOAUS!

Went fishing yesterday, but both places we went we were bombarded with biting insects, so packed up and came home....

I made the comment.......I didn't even get my line wet......
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

It's been so wet in the Rocky Mountains this year that I've burnt through three string trimmers trying to keep the lawn half-groomed. So, I lined up all my string trimmers, looking for one "that had some cut left in it."  :laugh:

I often find myself sneaking up behind my partner (he is much slower than me due to a mobility disability) and hold him in my arms in a 'dozy embrace', and whisper in his ear how much I love him.  ;D

My colleague unknowingly used a Brokieism the other day. We talked about the upcoming vacations and she said: "Alle Reisen die ich jemals mach' sind mit dem Finger auf der Landkarte." - That's the best translation of "All the traveling I ever do is going around the coffeepot, looking for the handle."
Made me smile big time. :)

Nice one, Chrissi!

Maybe your colleague is a closeted Brokie?   ;D



ETA: btw, is that the expression they use in the German dubbed movie?

I think yes. But I don't own the German DVD and can't find the (German) scene on youtube.
