Everything I say comes from The Simpsons

Recently, I realized that without The Simpsons, I might be nonverbal. (Ha!)

Here are a few of the many Simpsonsisms that have become vernacular in the Davis-Ross household.

- Baby Stink Breath.
usage: "Sorry, we can't make out, I have baby stink breath."

- Chintzy Pop.
usage: "Can you make us some Chintzy Pop?"
ed. note: usually refers to Jiffy Pop.

- "Come here a minute." "Oh, yeah?"
usage: Amy says, "Hey, Kev, come here a minute." Kevin replies, warily, "oh, yeah?"
ed. note: Sometimes used ironically; mostly used barkingly.

- "Take a sweater."
usage: Kevin, to Amy, "make sure you 'take a sweater' to the beach. It's only 95 degrees out today."
ed. note: Must be used with mocking Marge Simpson tone.

- "Nope!"
usage: Amy, to Kevin: "Are you mad at me for buying $200 in hardcover books?" Kevin, "nope!"
ed. note: Must be used in Ralph Wiggins-resurrected-from-the-dead voice.

- "Tastes like burning."
usage: whenever anything tastes nasty. Or really good.
ed. note: Again, must have Ralph Wiggins voice.

- "At this time of day? In this part of the hemisphere? At this time of year? Localized entirely within your kitchen?"
usage: Whenever anything is particularly shocking. For example, "You made dinner? At this time of day? Etc..."
ed. note: Critical to this usage is that it's not 100 percent verbatim

- "I - uh - didn't do it."
usage: Amy, to Kevin: "Who made this mess?" Kevin: "I - uh - didn't do it."
ed. note: Clearly, Mayor Quimby doing his best Kennedy impersonation.

- Powersauce Bars
usage: "Can you pick up some Powersauce Bars before we climb Mt. Rainier?"

And, the C. Montgomery Burns duo:
for Amy, the Machiavellian "excellent"
for Kevin, the retro "ahoy-hoy"
