Maybe this is what was happening. Did you check for blacksmiths?

Me neither. (Where does this quote come from? It was a catchphrase for my brothers and I in childhood ...)

I think it's from something British too. Or something that aired in the UK. For kids. Maybe Scooby Doo echoing those matinees? It was a catchphrase for beest and I too when the kids were little :D

I think it comes from a TV Western and was uttered by a cavalry sergeant to his officer just before a couple of hundred very warlike indians appeared on the skyline.

I'm sure it was also said by Sergeant Wilson, a man who always gave the impression he'd rather be somewhere else, in Dad's Army.

I still think it was used regularly in something aimed at kids -most likely in homage...

It's quiet, too quiet.

And that's all there is to say about that (though I skipped some).

I think maybe in "Zulu" too.
The Lone Ranger and John Wayne.

I don't like a Toad free zone.
Not. one. bit.

Undertoad where are you?

monster 09-24-2020 06:44 PM

I don't like people riding recumbent bikes on the sidewalk. They are too wide and the recumbers are generally inconsiderate of other sidewalk users. I don't like it at all. Put a big flagpole on it and get in the bike lane where you belong, Malcolm.

And I don't like people who say "I know you're not a hugger" and then hug you anyway. No ma'am, I don't like it.

I Growl at people and they leave me alone.
Try it, it works.
