Stuff I Say.

Hellooooooo. Today I'm going to be talking about random stuff I say. Fun, right?
  A while ago, I realized I have a certain group of words that I use over and over again. Like "Dude". Not sure when it started, but I call EVERYONE "Dude". Little kids like my cousins are "Little Dude", and sometimes I'll say the first name, then "Dude". Like "Owen Dude". One thing it works really well for is when I can't for the life of me remember the name of someone who, for all I know, saved my life the last time we met. If they actually know me, they probably won't think it's weird at all that I keep calling them "Dude". And if they question it, they probably don't know me anyway. Good system, huh?
   Another; "Oi". Pretty sure I got this one from my dad. I say "Oi" whenever someone is doing something I'd like them to stop, or if I need to get someone's attention, or if something is harder than I expected it to be, just as a general exclamation. I don't say it as often as "Dude", but I do use it a lot.
   Also, "Frak". I am the world's worst geek, because I originally didn't actually know that it came from Battlestar Galactica. I first heard it used by Douglas Fargo in "Eureka", and I thought it sounded fun. Now it's my go-to exclamation. I don't say "Heck" or "Hell" or "Crap" or "Holy Cow". Nothing really rolls off the tongue quite like "WHAT THE FRAK????" Yeah, I spell it without a "C". What're you gonna do about it?
   "Awesome". I use that one a lot. Example: "My mission in life is to be awesome.". It is, by the way. Also in the vocabulary: "Awesomeness", "Awesomesauce", "Crazy Awesome", and "AWWWWESOOOOME". It's a good word.
   Then there's the collection of longer phrases I use to confuse people. Or make them laugh, depending on the situation:
"The hippo in the backyard needs dog food."
"MARSHMALLOW SOCKS"
"HOLY FRAK IT'S AN OSTRICH IN A TUTU"
"To the bat cave!" (Never shout this when actually going somewhere: it's more confusing that way.)
"And then I went like, "WHOAAAA!" everyone went, "whaaa?"" (love that one.)
"DUM dum DUUUUM!"
"Onward, to new adventures!"
"Forward, into the abyss!"
And other various stuffs I say. (That sentence did not make sense grammatically. BUT I DON'T CARE.)
I don't know why I say this stuff exactly. I think the simplest answer would be that I like making people laugh, but the thing is, I don't know how it started. Just kidding. I do. Anyone who knows my parents will realize where I got it from. The point is, the next time you see me and I say something about pugs in bikinis popping out of cakes, now you know why. Sort of.

The End?
