Do you have any off-beat sayings you like to spout at any given time? I like saying:
-Oh my stars and garters (got this from the Beast in an X-Men comic from years ago)
-Whut in the Sam Hill (oldie but goodie)
-Criminently, Trigger! (from Disney's Robin Hood. Sometimes followed with "Put that pea-shooter day-own!")
-Ee cha mama you (random Jawa/Ewok gibberish)
My 5 year old brother likes saying "Please and cheese?". I think he heard "Pretty please with sugar on top?" and modified it. What can I say? The boy likes cheese.
My best friend says "Holy Crow!" Yeah, she's a freak.

When the going gets tough I like to remind people that:

Rabbi,
The poked in the eye with sharp stick phrase was one of my dad's favorite sayings.
Evoked some good memories. Thanks. Goldammit to hell anyway, was another.
Dryer than a popcorn fart.

Hmmm... there's the old Army/Marine rule:
If you can't eat it, f*** it, or kill it, salute it. If it don't salute back, paint it green
Or my favorite replies to a "thank you":
for the generic; no problem, I'd do the same for a white man
while holding the door for old ladies; well, mom raised one gentleman. I got tired of his attitude and kilt him

My boss' new favorite:
"Hey, Jack, would you go downstairs and kick-f&(k some of those boxes?"

Haha, that tea in china one had me cracking up. Whenever anyone pulls a non-sequitur i say 'Like all the horses in china!" and have a straight face.
When the new security on campus tried to take my longboard:
"Hmm.. yeah... okay, let's try that, and see what happens."
Straight face and smile. This guy is 3x my size. It worked.
Edit: and by worked I mean I got to keep my longboard and he understood that every rule doesn't have to be 100% enforced.

When you don't feel like going to work: "I have anal glaucoma... I can't see my ass coming to work today."
ROTFLMAO that's fantastic!

To someone who is clueless- "thanks for playing"
To someone who is a smartass or who tries talking way over my head "shut up, you're making me hate you"
"beer is food"
An expression of agreement- "yeah hey" -if this one slips out when I'm talking to someone in another state, they pretty much immediately guess which state I'm from.

My father a'h, a psychiatrist (of course), designed the "Magritte test" (named after the painter known for incongruous things) to see if someone was really clueless.
He would go up to two people at a party talking and exclaim "that'll be the day!" If they nodded agreement, they were clueless.
When asked about two things he would say "it's six to one, two dozen the other" and see if anyone noticed.

"Easier than eating a stack of pancakes" (piece of pie)
"Go pound sand"
If someone tried to chew me out I refered to it as "getting a case of the a$$"

An expression of agreement- "yeah hey" -if this one slips out when I'm talking to someone in another state, they pretty much immediately guess which state I'm from.
And if someone says "ya, der hey", people in WI know that person is from Milwaukee

Heilige Scheisse, Blackburn! That's quite a list.

Just because you can lead a mixed metaphor to water doesn't mean you can make it take off like a rocket.
Trickier than eating popcorn in the shower.
Turn that wayno, I mean the other wayabout a mile or so before you get to the big white farm house that burned down about five years ago.
Twice as much fun as two puppies and an old sock.
Heck, if they weren't paying me, I'd have to pay them.
Vacuous promises will be available in the second quarter.
Colorful expressions make modern audiences feel theyre riding an uphill glacier: if you dont fall into a crevasse of self-importance, youll surely trigger an avalanche of cuteness.
Avoid euphemisms like the you know what.
A good cliché is worth its weight in gold.
Neglecting to exercise a dictionary can make ones usage seem incontinent.
A metaphor is like a simile, except it stands for something kind of like a symbol. Your word processors got five or six icons to take care of all that stuff automatically.
Use a thesaurus to enliven your communications with appetizing, buoyant, crepitatious, definitive, elegant, fanciful, graphic, hilarious, ingenious, judicious, kaleidoscopic, languid, melodic, neoclassical, opportune, powerful, quotidian, regal, sonorous, tenacious, ubiquitous, venerable, whimsical, xenobiotic, yearning, zany adjectives.
Analogies in business communications are like bunny rabbits on bicycles: they just dont fly.

I always liked:
"He couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions written on the heel."
And, in the immortal words of my mother:
"Having kids is like making waffles - by the time you get good at it, you've got too many anyway..."
