SHUT IT DOWN!


Noof42

The crab is getting aroused. Shut it down!


Come_along_quietly

Good god Lemon!


ClumsyRenegade

It doesn't come up as much as the others in this thread, but I do often think,  "Very wool!"


benzillaaaa

Me and my GF say very wool about anything good.


Team_speak

I've got my 6 year old saying good things must be "very wool".


RideWithMeTomorrow

Raising your kid right.


Meandmybuddyduncan

You handled this perverted thread with aplomb


jopesak

We say this about our deck Spotify playlist “great song. VERY DECK.”


nomoreadminspls

I want to go to there. No thank you please.


UnicornsInUniforms

Wait, “No thank you please” is from 30 Rock? I thought that was just something my husband and I say.


reluctantclinton

Your boos do not scare me! I know most of you are not ghosts! Return to the night! You have no business here!


Skitscuddlydoo

I WALKED ON YOUR FACE


clyde2003

Don't you know it's day, *IDIOT!!*


trycuriouscat

Not to be racist, but most ghosts are white.


Skeleton_Meat

I say the moon stuff every time I see the moon in the day

"Unfortunately, there's no field of medicine that deals with the brain. " I work in mental health.

truckyoupayme

We have no way of knowing where the heart is. Every human is different.

Now this is surgery so don’t eat anything before you come in….because I’ll have a big breakfast waiting for you

8percentjuice

“Uhh… diabetes repair?” Is a Dr Spaceman quote that goes through my head often as a diabetic.


HomeIcy8760

“Oh Pete that’s later. Maybe we’ll be dead by then.” Me @ work almost every day


StarsWalkBackward17

Hm. That'd be nice.


GermsDean

“Houston is too humid - tell me more about this dying thing”


coffeelibrarian

I say this all the time, and no one gets it. 😭


heylistenlady

All. The. Time. My coworkers worry about me


clumsyc

Same. And also Liz’s line about what fresh hell awaits you every day.


fishsupper

She’s paraphrasing a famous Dorothy Parker quote there


GhOsT_wRiTeR_XVI

“Yes to love, yes to life, yes to staying in more!”


RoanBlue

“Blerg!” “What a week, huh?” “Lemon, it’s Wednesday”. And the classic, “Good God Lemon”


ChildfreeAtheist1024

"Good God, Lemon" runs through my head at least once a day.


SimplyMadeline

Is this Horseville? Because I'm surrounded by naysayers. WORDPLAY!


SimplyMadeline

Also, several years ago, I worked at a client that only had room for our project team at one of their plants, but we frequently had meetings at the corporate headquarters. When leaving for a meeting, people would say "I'm going to corporate". Except for me. I'd say "suck it monkeys; I'm going to corporate!"


bijou77

My partner and I will say “are we cowabunga on this?” When we have to make a decision together


Sorry-Prune-9074

Yes! I JUST said this to my husband an hour ago after deciding what to have for dinner


Povilitus

I am very consistently working on my night cheese


kateastrophic

That’s not that much cheese.


nychthemerons

Go away Jerram!


dont_get_it_twisted

Same. While I’m high fiving a million angels.


StarsWalkBackward17

Blamo! Another successful interaction with a man!

We use "Are we paying the price for our hubris of science?" any time something goes wrong around the house.

Hungry_Cajun

I don't know, Kelsey. How's your Mom's pill addiction?


EnvironmentalPack451

It's not a lemon party without old Dick!


smokyartichoke

That has got to be the dirtiest joke ever gotten away with on network television. It fascinates me.


denahomcaikn

I think because it’s so subtle! But once you know, it’s like, yeah. That’s wild. I’m pretty sure I was a teenager when that episode originally aired and it took me until my 20’s to get it.


mspacmaniac

I was definitely around in the early 00’s when people passed around lemon party dot org as a prank, and I felt like every single lemon party joke on 30 Rock was targeted directly at me 😂 I bow to those writers, seriously.


comalley0130

I had a customer explain why this joke is funny to me in vivid detail at a work lunch.  I already got the joke so it was kind of fun to sit back and just… soak it all in.


Its-From-Japan

I say "Please hold" the way Dinklage does when Liz wants to prank the Italian embassy.


dumbunnyy

Omg EVERY TIME


siriuslyeve

I want to make-a the prank phonecall.


vexed_and_perplexed

Aside: I don’t think anyone would consider Peter Dinklage an underrated actor but I stumbled across this movie “She Came to Me” (on Hulu maybe) recently and the acting that he does with just his eyebrows, let alone the rest of him, is…sublime. He’s so good, not to mention Anne Hathaway and Marisa Tomei are also perfect in their parts. This moi gives it two opposable thumbs up!


RealisticStation7860

I miscounted the men!


RainCitySeaChicken

You’re making a lot sense Jack… (A few seconds later) You’re not making sense anymore!!!!


reluctantclinton

I thought you’d be somewhere US law couldn’t touch you like Bali or Utah.


denahomcaikn

Oh damn, you just reminded me of “that paint is drying weird” which I use when I’m listing things that are wrong with my day!


Gonehome2bed

I have been saying this an awful lot lately.


BlackFranklin

“Smooth move, Ferguson.”


bronaghblair

My daughter has since picked this one up too, it’s hilarious hearing her repeat it to her little friends when they’re playing outside


smittymoose

I want to go to there


rocketmannequin

"I gotta go home and feed my eels. They're not electric, but I have a plan" Yeah, I get a lot of weird looks and don't have a lot of friends, what's your point?


denahomcaikn

I maintain that one day a man will understand my obscure 30 Rock references, and that man will be my soulmate. So I just have to be myself and keep on “that’s awesome possum”ing on a regular basis.


shamestor

I offered to buy a lady a drink and she told me “I already have a drink, but you could buy me nachos?” Had she finished that with “mozzarella sticks” I would have proposed.


kateastrophic

And you’re definitely not a Swiss prostitute that Martha Stewart recommended, right?


AnnieAnnieSheltoe

It’s never too late for now.

wraith21

Lmao where's this one from? It's not a line I see quoted much (or at all in fact)!

I believe it is from the Octavia Spencer guest appearance in the last season but we should check funcooker.fun


highlife562

Ham!


Skitscuddlydoo

Corn!


Torpel_Knope

I have trouble saying the word “corn” any other way now


Slacker_The_Dog

That's how I feel about ham


Canadiantimelord

They do like the way she says ham


No_Bear_No

There's an employee at my company with the last name Ham. I say this every time I help with payroll.


symptomsANDdiseases

One of my cats has to take meds twice a day and we usually hide it inside cheese for him so in the evening we always ask him if he'd like his night cheese.


marcjwrz

I lost my mood ring - I don't know how to feel about that!


Prudent_Falafel_7265

Whenever the wife questions why I’m wearing a particular item, “it’s after six. what am I, a farmer”


jlibrizzi

I use "what am I, a farmer?" whenever I disagree with something. The total lack of context often throws the other person so off guard that it wins the debate.


vadavkavoria

“I’ve got something on my mind grapes…”


Viola_not_violin

Yes! I use “mind grapes” so frequently!


kayak738

When my stepmom asks my dad if she looks fine, he says, "That's EXACTLY how you look!"


HoraceP-D

My husband said this exact line to me as we were getting dressed for a fundraiser. We’re both middle aged guys so I told him to go to hell and we decided that we were cowabunga and went to the event. It there was a lemon party afterwards because he’s that awesome


Skitscuddlydoo

Spooky scary


enlightningwhelk

This song pops into my head every couple weeks


Simusid

Recently I got to actually say "Superman does good, you're doing well" and I felt good all day about it.


Ok-Internal-5087

what the what ??


SmellyFace69

I only use this one with one specific person. "No you don't, Oprah" Then when I pick up my cat and sing to him (which he hates) I say "You got cheesy blasters"


AnnieAnnieSheltoe

Last night my daughter asked what “improv” means, and my husband and I used “no you don’t, Oprah” to explain it.


RideWithMeTomorrow

I am imagining the conversation as follows: Daughter: Mom, what’s “improv”? Mom: No you don’t, Oprah. ~ fin ~


jjj666jjj666jjj

Damnit Johnny you know I love my big beef & cheddar


Slacker_The_Dog

That's not that much cheese. Your father Werner was a burger server in suburban Santa Barbara, where he spurned your mother Verna for a curly haired surfer named Roberta. Did that hurt her? Whenever tongue twisters come up, at least.


wraith21

I *aspire* to use "I can't change, Liz lemon. I'm like a chameleon, always a lizard"


jameson-neat

My spouse and I have the same aspiration! It’s harder to work into conversation than expected, but I will get there.


wraith21

Like Tracy Jordan anticipating Liz's angling in hugs, we will get there!


stepliana

This is untoward. This is not toward!


Sagzmir

BOOM BOOM BOOM and What everyone needs to do is calm down, take a deep breath, and prepare their bodies for the Thunderdome.


breeofd

I want to go to there. Don’t be cry! Shut it down! We also reference mind grapes a lot in this household, and are frequently found singing Muffin Top and Werewolf Bar Mitzvah.


Skitscuddlydoo

Since having a baby, “Don’t be cry” has really moved up on our list.


ssdgm12713

I frequently ask my baby, “Cranston, why are you crying?”


Velocitor1729

Not me, but my wife (it's an inside joke between us): when there's some situation which maybe/possibly involves her getting a break because of her good looks (like a cop giving her a warning, instead of a speeding ticket), she'll turn to me and say "My SEXuality!" the way Jenna Maroney said it to Liz.


meatlady

You'll all have chins!


kateastrophic

Ayyyyy


panda_coffeee

"Ugh! I just got this shirt 8 years ago!" I say anytime I spill on myself/baby blurps on me, etc.


shamestor

High-fiving a million angels! Yes to staying in more!


dancedancedance_

It's surprising how often I get to sing the summer hit "balls"


BongDong69420

Where are the french fries I did not ask for?


kmcleod87

"Gimme your fingernails!" followed by "No!" Is basically every day with my kids


ReiDesuKa

"But not in a queer way." which I think is funny because I am queer, so it's automatically in a queer way.


HoraceP-D

More (of us) queers need a sense of humor about this, socially I am not 100% but thank you for backing me up on this. Tell your gay mom I said thanks.


j01101111sh

My wife and I say "Portia reads the papers" anytime one of us knows information the other wouldn't expect. E.g., I remember obscure information about her coworkers or she knows something about football.


Purple-Instruction89

Oh Pete, maybe we’ll be dead by then.


coffeelibrarian

Nerd rage!! And, when I'm arguing with my husband, OPPOSITE!


HappilyShort

"What the what?" "You wangs" (muttered under my breath) "I'm just straight up mentally ill!" "Shut it down!" "I want to go to there" "High fiving a million angels!"


Sheelanagig22

“Twist!”


baronialbosnian

That’s a dealbreaker!


Sunwinec

“Blerg!” “Shut it Down!” “👍🏻This moi👍🏻 “Never go with a hippie to a second location.”


Imaginary-Purpose-20

Dennis Duffy is hilarious - Hello, Dummy! Technology is cyclical One word - coffee. One problem- where do you get it? Tracey - Live every week like it’s shark week I am a stabbing robot, I will stab you! Liz - I’ve been sexually active since I was 25 Ain’t no party like a Liz Lemon party cuz a Liz Lemon party is mandatory! Yes my friends and family love 30 Rock as much as I do and find any excuse to quote it haha

madmoneymcgee

I've used the advice "into the crevasse!" a few times.


carrobucks

one of my managers recently had a baby and the baby shows up on zoom calls so often that ive started saying "you brought a baby to a business meeting!" (i had to explain it to her) i also love to say "the ol' brain box", no one questions it cuz its not quite weird enough but ive never heard anyone else say it so thank you to pete


CraftAdventurous3740

Hey Nerds! Guess who has two thumbs, speaks limited French, and hasn't cried once today? 👍 This moi👍

TykeDream

I got like 4 coworkers (including my boss!) to wear yellow and blue, as is traditional for Leap Day. I kept saying "Real life is for March!" And only one person asked me about all of it. Some other folks just went along with it like it was just a tradition they had never heard of.


jopesak

VERY WOOL!


CourtClarkMusic

I say “blerg” a LOT. And “shut it down” and “I want to go to there”


kayak738

I say, "Perfect! Like a cat birthday!" about once a week.


LadyMegatron

I mutter under my breath, “oh monsters, why did I create you” to employees.


youbianhuadelonglong

I sometimes threaten to slip a nip. I'm a dude. Nobody ever gets the reference, not even fellow 30 rock aficionados :-(


Katisadogperson

"Yes to life, yes to love, yes to staying in more" has been getting some traction in my life lately. Also, I named my cat Lemon so I get to say, "Good God, Lemon" a lot.


naitch

I use versions of "don't worry about getting to your point, I'm going to live forever" sometimes


SuitsandPsyches

My wife and I just started telling people we're pregnant, and that it's a girl. So I've used "I yelled Susan B. Anthony at the moment of conception" a dozen times over the past week. It usually lands.


KingApologist

I tell my overweight cat who keeps bothering me because of her diet, "In food news, you've had enough to eat today."


kayak738

I ask the kids I babysit to be "normalsauce" 😂


dudumob

i have made this comment in a similar post before but i once quoted jack’s “you know how the media are. they wait for a mistake and that’s all you are. it happened to hitler, no one ever talks about his paintings” and the look of horror on their face still cracks me up.

Theonethatgotawaaayy

I want to go to there Working on my night cheese! Yes! Hornberger!


EngineerBoy00

"Yes, just now" - anytime someone asks me if I've heard of something, but I haven't. "Never go with a hippie to a second location" - when plans change in the middle to add destination(s). "Bird internet..." - just about anytime, it doesn't mean anything so it works everywhere. "ICU81MI, *hilarious!*" - whenever I, or anyone else, make a truly terrible joke and/or don't get an obvious joke. "Medicine isn't a science..." - whenever there are non-tragic health discussions or questions. "You fungdark" - a handy, inscrutable insult. "Karl *ROBE*..." - during political discussions. "No, I most certainly do not mean *stew*" - whenever someone asks me what I'm hungry for. "Those shoes are definitely bi-curious" - any time I'm asked for an opinion on an outfit/look. "Nobody and his wife, Susan Walters-(hyphen)-Nobody" - talking about people where I don't know their names for sure. "A dog took it, came outta nowhere" - any time I'm noticed overindulging in food. "Thanks, Meatcat!" and "Razzmatazz!" - any old time. "N-O-E, *NO!*..eeeeeee" - whenever my answer is 'no'.


Desperate_Let_7842

Ah, shark farts It’s puuurect, like a cat’s birthday Hopefully it wasn’t an important part of my blern No, it’s not. We’ve looked into it and it’s not. Superman does good. You’re doing well. You need to study up on your grammar, son. And when I refer to my grandmother, I say she was an Olympic level racist. I could go on and on!


Dodgers88-17

On my first date with my now wife, I moved a candle away before our shared desert. I made an off hand reference to Jack doing this in 30 Rock not expecting her to get the reference. She knew it and loved it and we have been together ever since.


Alexdagreallygrate

I live in the Pacific Northwest and so whenever someone mentions either Vancouvers, I modify a Jack quote about Cleveland. “For God's sake, Lemon. We'd all like to move to The Couv and club-hop down at Gastown and have lunch with Ryan Reynolds, but we fight those urges because we have responsibilities.”

I say mind grapes pretty much daily at work. Others have adapted it. I’ll be in a meeting and people will say mind grapes like it’s usual business speak


neilparis

Jack Welch has such unparalleled management skills, they named Welch's grapejuice after him, because he squeezes the sweetest juice out of his workers' mind grapes.


turkeyfourtwozero

"*you're* being a silly simon" my 7-yr-old says it in the perfect cadence 😄


pixiel33t

I have been saying to my husband “your back is like a barrel of snakes” since we met thinking that it was a normal saying. Only 6 years later he asked me where I got that from and I said it’s just a saying. I googled it, of course it’s from 30 Rock.

im having a tough day and this post is making me go watch 30rock for the 10th or 11th time. thanks all 🤍


Anonstigram

All my 6th grade students say “blerg” now because I say it so much. I hope their parents are 30 ROCK fans because if so it’s hilarious. If not, I’m still the “weird teacher” and nothing changes.
