It's so dumb and unoriginal, but I can't stop!

I'm pretty sure this was a thing before Jar Jar Binks, but now it's forever associated with him in my mind.
Dr-McLuvin@reddit
First thing I thought of too. I was 14 when that movie came out.
poit57@reddit
It came out a month before my 18th birthday, but it's what I thought of too because I'm a big Star Wars fan.
I knew kids said it when I was younger, but I would have never guessed it was from Wayne's World even though I've seen that movie several times.
WalkLikeAGiant@reddit
Jar Jar had Wayne’s World on VHS.
taleofbenji@reddit (OP)
Also, whenever I go some place that is uninteresting, I routinely imitate them in Delaware. "I'm in..... Delaware."
dust4ngel@reddit
so…. come to milwaukee often?
Honest_Award_8708@reddit
I live in Madison and every time I hear the word Milwaukee I say this… pretty sure my friends are tired of it but I can’t quit
vajrasana@reddit
Actually, Wayne, it’s pronounced “Milli-wah-kay”, which is Algonquin for “the good land”.
vajrasana@reddit
Me too! Sadly, no one gets it most of the time. Le sigh, at least I entertain myself 🙃
wlrldchampionsexy@reddit
Baking powder?
Claim312ButAct847@reddit
It sounded like you said you were gonna pay us to do Wayne's World.
juicefarm@reddit
It's like people only do things because they get paid. And that's just really sad

I dropped it the other day for the first time in a while. I forget what it was, but something audacious happened in a show my wife was watching. Super random.

“A baking powder?”

I still use the exact same cadence of “I don’t even own a gun, let alone many guns, which would necessitate an entire rack” anytime I’m emphasizing there’s only one of something

ASS sphincter says what.
I wish my income was solely based on knowing all this worthless movie trivia. I would be SOOOOO RICH.
TrinityKilla82@reddit
You’re right. Been a long time since I have seen Wayne’s world. Maybe time to watch it again on the long weekend 🙂
ThatGhoulAva@reddit
Always a great time for Wayne's World!
GAME ON!
Soma2710@reddit
CAAAAAAR!!!!
maggie320@reddit
I never knew what that meant at the time and was afraid to ask since it seemed like a dirty word. Then when I learned what sphincter was and it hit me instantly.

I just looked it up, and am very sad to learn that they no longer have the Stan Mikita's Restaurant at King's Dominion, and they renamed The Hurler to Twisted Timbers. (Holy downgrade, Batman..)

You need to respond with: “I’m trying to understand the problem, but I can’t finger it out…”

There’s so many quotable lines that “That’s what she said” got buried enough to be later attributed to other parties. By far the most quoted movie during my high school years.

i only recently realized that "smooth move, ex-lax" is referring to smooth bowel movements and is a poop reference. is there some hidden meaning/joke in exsqueeze me that i'm too dense to have noticed?
