Line 4:
''And the knifing, and the hurting, and the senseless violence, already!''|'''''[[Berserk Abridged]]'''''}}
A phrase made popular by [[Jerry Lewis]] that was then exaggerated by characters based on him. The phrase is based on the syntax of [[Yiddish as a Second Language|Yiddish]], and is heavily associated with Jewish and [[Borscht Belt]] humor. Jews do [[Jewish Complaining|love to complain]], after all. Variations include: "Oh God, with the X!", "Stop, with the X!", "Please, not with the X!", etc. It's often topped off with "already!"
The phrase is generally used to complain about an action, like "shouting," "stabbing" and so forth, but can also use to complain about a subject, such as "Enough, with the radio! Turn it off!"
Just about every [[Alter Kacker]] will indulge in the trope, but cultural saturation has also made it a part of general [[Buffy-Speak]].
Not to be confused with [[Oh, the Humanity!]]
Line 21:
** And then in a later episode: "With the boot, and the face, and the pain..."
* ''[[The Abridging of Haruhi Suzumiya]]'': Kyon yells the 'running' version of this as Haruhi drags him out of the classroom, complete with a [[Super Mario Bros.]] soundtrack.
* ''[[Code Geass the Abridged Series]]'' has this happen a few times, with Shirley declaring "Oh God With The Falling" when Milly declares the cat-catching contest and the "prize", while Suzaku has several, one in the flashback involving being shot, and another being hit the ''scene-changing screen'' after Lelouch gets fed up with Suzaku not getting his hint.
* The Third Hokage from ''[[Naruto the Abridged Comedy Spoof Series Show]]'' uses this when Iruka shows up to bother him one time too many. "God, always with the talking from you."
* Used overtly by Uncle Iroh in ''Avatar: The Abridged Series''. "Alright, alright! Enough, with the vining [whining], already!"
Line 37:
* Every episode of the short-lived WB sitcom ''Alright Already'' had a [[Idiosyncratic Episode Naming|title]] which was some variant of "Again with the ______ ".
* ''[[Firefly]]'' used this now and again, usually from Wash.
* When Lorelai Gilmore, from ''[[Gilmore Girls]]'', speculates about the most inherently funny phrase in the world to help her through a boring family dinner, she finally settles on "Oy, with the poodles, already!"
* ''[[The West Wing]]'', when Josh is babbling apologetically to Amy about how he never learned to be good at relationships. "You know what? Maybe not so much for you with the talking." *kiss*
* Kevin Pollak had a one-hour HBO comedy special titled "Stop With the Kicking!" The title came from Pollak's discussion of nascent action "star" Jeff Speakman:

* ''[[Homestar Runner]]'' had Strong Bad begin answering one of his emails, "Again with the 'Dear Strong Bad'..."
* Strip 100 of ''[[Questionable Content]]'' had Marten saying "Please don't make with the killing!" in response to seeing Faye topless.
Line 86:
* Prof. Frink in ''[[The Simpsons]]'', mostly because the voice actor based him on Jerry Lewis' character in the "Nutty Professor". Jerry Lewis was cast as Prof. Frink's father in a Halloween Special.
* Shelton Klutzberry, another character vocally based on Jerry Lewis, says this sort of thing in ''[[The Replacements]]''.
* Zoidberg and the other Decapoidians talk this way on ''[[Futurama]]'', being [[Space Jews]].
* Mort Goldman in ''[[Family Guy]]'' occasionally does this.
* In one episode, Mojo Jojo of ''[[Powerpuff Girls]]'' repeatedly describes the foiling of his plan as "The dogs, the biting, the dropping."
