Smith Will Suffice: Difference between revisions

'''Joker:''' ''(spins to look behind him)'' Where?! ...Oh, I see. You were addressing ''me''. }}

** In an even earlier issue (''Laughing Fish'', which was the basis for the below episode of the Animated Series), Joker bursts into a patent office, and the clerk remarks "Good Lord!" After asking [[Where Where|where the Lord was]] and looking around. He then says "Oh, were you addressing me? A term of endearment perhaps. Admit it, you've always secretly admired me."

{{quote| '''[[Evil Overlord|Moctecuzoma]]''': Oh God. Oh, great '''God'''...<br />

'''Quetzalacoatl 9''': {{smallcaps|Exactly.}} }}

 

== Film ==

** And in a strange twist, it turns out [[Will Smith]] was originally offered the role of Neo.

{{quote| '''President:''' Oh, God!<br />

'''Zod:''' ''Zod''. }}

{{quote| '''Bud White:''' Jesus Fucking Christ!<br />

'''Patchett:''' No, Mr White, Pierce Morehouse Patchett.. }}

{{quote| '''Roxie Hart:''' Jesus, Mary and Joseph!<br />

'''Mama:''' You're talkin' to the wrong people, honey. }}

* In ''[[The Big Lebowski]]'', minor character Jesus Quintana makes an overblown threat to the Dude's friend Walter.

{{quote| '''Dude:''' Jesus!<br />

'''Bruce''': You can call me Bruce. }}

** It should be noted that at this point in the movie, Bruce actually has been given God's powers, making this a play on the trope.

{{quote| '''Bobby Shelton''': Who are you?<br />

''*The Devil sticks up his thumb, and a flame comes out of it, like a cigarette lighter. He lights a cigar with the flame, then extinguishes the flame by blowing on his thumb. Bobby Shelton's reaction is a mixture of shock and disgust.*''<br />

'''Pinhead''': Not quite. }}

** ''Bloodline'' features Pinhead responding to an "Oh my God"-type moment with "Do I look like someone who cares what God thinks?"

* In ''[[History of the World Part One|History Of The World, Part I]]'', someone shouts, "Jesus!" and Jesus himself replies, "Yes?"

* Classic variation from [[Mae West]], in the movie ''Night After Night'':

{{quote| "Goodness, what beautiful diamonds."<br />

"Goodness had nothing to do with it, dearie." }}

{{quote| '''Victim''': Oh, God!<br />

'''Freddy''' (gesturing to his face with the claws): ''This'' is God. }}

{{quote| '''Jesse Braun''': Oh, God!<br />

'''Freddy Krueger''': No. Just me. }}

{{quote| '''Adams''': Good GOD! A whole week! The entire earth was created in a week! <br />

'''Jefferson''': Someday, you must tell me how you did it. }}

* Played straight in the first [[Wishmaster]] movie, when, after the Jerkass Genie has arranged something horrible to happen, the (unwitting at the time) wisher says "Oh my god!", with the JG replying "Not yet, mortal. Soon".

* In ''[[Death Becomes Her]]'', when Lisle displays the rejuvinating properties of the potion on Ernest's hand, he exclaims, "My god!" Lisle smiles and says, "Thank you."

{{quote| '''Katherine''': Oh God...<br />

'''Lucifer''': God? God is love. I don't love you. }}

== Fan Fiction ==

* Painfully popular in what we might call the amateur porn of the internet, especially when it involves [[Foe Yay]] being taken to its logical conclusion...

{{quote| '''Applejack''': [[Oh My Gods|Holy Celestia!]]<br />

'''Big Mac/Thor''': Not quite. }}

 

== Literature ==

* Variation: in ''[[The Master and Margarita]]'', a Soviet bureaucrat shouts "the devils take me", having been thoroughly exasperated by [[Those Two Bad Guys|Behemoth and Korovyev]]. Being more or less devils, they enthusiastically agreed and promptly "took" him, leaving behind his empty animated suit. (One English translation has him saying "Damn me", with the same result).

** Similarly, in ''[[The Once and Future King|The Sword and the Stone]]'' the curse "Castor and Pollux blow me to Bermuda!" is more effective than planned.

* In the short story ''Young Goodman Brown'', one character exclaims "The Devil!" (somewhat akin to "What the hell?") when startled by a character who later actually turns out to be the Devil.

{{quote| '''Brutha:''' Oh, my god...<br />

'''Om:''' What now? }}

'''Harry:''' [[Deadpan Snarker|There's no need to]] [[Moment of Awesome|call me 'sir,' Professor.]] }}

* Many of the swears and oaths used in the ''[[Codex Alera]]'' revolve around "furies," elemental beings that give people [[Elemental Powers|control over the elements]]. When Amara sees the full power of Garados and Thana, a massive mountain and his "wife," the cold winds from the Sea of Ice, she expresses her shock in the standard Aleran swear of "great furies." Placidus Aria simply responds with "two of them."

** He also originated the quote "How did you realize you were God?" "Well, I was praying one day and then realized I was talking to myself."

* Related: In the 2010 stage revival of [[Yes Prime Minister]], After Jim Hacker says, "Oh God!" The lights go out due to the thunderstorm & Humphrey appears in the doorway, illuminated from behind.

** Although, such obliviousness is pretty well par for the course wherever Grobnar is concerned.
