Report your use of Brokieisms in so-called "real life"

I did not use the Brokie-ism, but I saw it in a comic book, which I somehow missed the first time I read the series.
I was reading a back issue of "The Walking Dead" and in this issue, the survivors were running from a large herd of zombies. They came across an abandoned house, and debated hiding in it. One of the group was against it, saying that if one of herd accidentally brushes against the doorknob, and another sees and thinks it is an attempt to break in, they would all mindlessly start trying to break in. He went on to describe them....."there is no rhyme or reason to them in a group that large, they are a force of nature."

New Walking Dead slogan: "Zombies are a force of nature."

Discussing the movie Groundhog Day (since it's February 2), this was said, "The original script had Bill Murray's character trapped in the loop for 10,000 years (though a semi-scientific look at film guesses it was actually just under 9 years)." He was "caught in my own loop"! This is thought to be a very Buddhist comment.

I must confess that I've stopped using lots of Brokieisms but it's a pity since it brought me a lot of pleasure. On my recent trip, I used several. One that I recall was when I was staying at a farm in Kentucky, and the farmer was describing how visitors, especially children, love watching the goats frolic in the field. I said, "That's some high-class entertainment, if you ask me!" He smiled.
