Line 6:
If the phrase has become popular due to the audience repeating it, and not the characters in the show, it belongs in [[Memetic Mutation]].
{{examples
* ''[[Ace Attorney]]'': The word '''''{{color|red|Objection!}}''''' has been practically synonymous with the series, as all of the attorneys use it in their cases, including the easily-rattled "Rookie Killer" Winston Payne. It's even flung around outside the court room in Investigations by all the attorneys (including new ones)
** Poor players will also find their own catchphrase: "This evidence totally contradicts the witness' last statement!" Why is it so vague? Because [[What the Hell, Player?|you're presenting the wrong evidence, and have a penalty headed your way]].
** Godot also has one special [[Catch Phrase]] out of the usual '''''{{color|red|Objection!}}''''': "That's one of my rules."
*** Godot also had a tendency to say "Ha!".
Line 137:
*** [[Shout Out|More appropriately]] compared with [[Battlestar Galactica|"So say we all"]].
*** "Keelah" is also a convenient all-purpose interjection (as in "Keelah!" instead of "My God!"). "Bosh'tet" seems to be the quarian equivalent to "You suck." (although it apparently means "faulty equipment").
** In the first game, Shepard used to quip "Hit me, Joker", whenever his/her helmsman contacted him/her with [[Good News, Bad News|some bad news and some REALLY bad news]]. S/He seems to have dropped that habit completely in the sequel, though.
** "Shepard-Commander."
** "Embrace eternity!"
Line 173:
{{quote| '''Dan''': *Mercilessly insults the person he's talking to.*<br />
'''Old friend/Main Villain/Security Robot/Hot Bimbo''': "Haha. What a dude." }}
* ''Nexus: The Jupiter Incident'': [[Small Name, Big Ego|Rear Admiral Norbank]]
{{quote| I'll teach them not to mess with the human race... Watch and learn, Captain Cromwell - '''this''' is how the big boys do battle!}}
* ''[[Nintendo Wars]]'': Caulder from ''Days of Ruin'': (it's) FASCINATING!
Line 236:
* ''[[Star Wars]]'': ''[[Knights of the Old Republic (Video Game)|Knights of the Old Republic]]'' Atton of the sequel has, "Pure Pazzak!", a reference to the blackjack-like game he plays obsessively. From the same game, the battle droid HK-47 has his distinctive expression of "meatbags."
** And Atton sometimes uses the aforementioned "I have a bad feeling about this," and it is even mentioned as one of his special abilities (which is of course never referenced again). Kriea uses "...Listen!" so much it might count as hers.
** [[Star Wars|Mission]] [[Knights of the Old Republic|Vao]] uses the term Bantha Poodoo alot. Also, poodoo is Huttese for excrement, which is a fancy word for shit. So, [[Cluster F
*** Actually, "poodoo" is Huttese for "fodder" (animal feed) if you look at the movies' subtitles. Therefore, it's an example of Cluster [[Unusual Euphemism]].
** [[Tsundere|Bastila Shan]] wants to remind you that this is no laughing matter!
Line 244:
** Sanger Zonvolt: ''[[In the Name of The Moon|"I am Sanger Zonvolt, the Sword That Smites Evil!"]]'' or ''"There is nothing that my Colossal Blade cannot cut!"''
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiHer4MD5Oo Or?]
** Elzam V. Branstein/[[Paper
* ''[[Super Smash Bros Melee]]'': "Show your moves!" "HYESZ!" "FALCON PAWNCH/KICK!"
** You could technically say that ANY character that [[Calling Your Attack|calls their attacks]] qualifies.
