[[Stock Phrases|Stock Response]] to [[Make-Out Kids|two characters]] acting in an [[Tastes Like Diabetes|unusually lovey-dovey way]], or flirting (but generally what each character thinks of as covertly, since they often [[Cannot Spit It Out]]). Occasionally used sincerely in the event of [[Coitus Uninterruptus]], and in the other direction, also used on non-sexual friends (often but not always [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]) by the resident [[Deadpan Snarker]]. [[Mood Dissonance]], both to "get back to the comedy already!" in the first two versions and to keep viewers from [[Ecchi|becoming more titillated than they should be for the time slot]].
