Remember that? Well, for those who aren't huge sitcom buffs like me, that is the jingle Marshall Ericksen coined to remember his password for the bar exam results website in "How I Met Your Mother" (Season III, Episode 8: Spoiler Alert). It is nonsensical of course, but I had it stuck in my head for a good two days because it's so catchy. And infectious too, for my roommate started humming it after a point. But that's the thing about catchy phrases and lines - whether it is a product slogan or a sports tag line - strike chords and make points (funny, profound, or otherwise) that make them retention-friendly. These phrases, and sometimes their overuse, are the reasons why we remember certain products, items, and above all, certain people. Check out some of the snazziest catchlines that have ever been coined below.

The Big Bang Theory: Season 5, Episode 2 - The Infestation Hypothesis Remember the one where Sheldon kept obsessing about Penny's red sofa that she had picked up from the road and paid some random guy to get it up to her apartment? I loved the way Penny greeted him each time Sheldon knocked on her door in order to convince her to get rid of it. It went like this.
Sheldon: *Knock knock knock* Penny. *Knock knock knock* Penny. *Knock knock knock* Penny. Penny: What's up, buttercup? After the first slamming of the door. Sheldon: *Knock knock knock* Penny. *Knock knock knock* Penny. *Knock knock knock* Penny. Penny: What's the word, hummingbird? After the second slamming of the door. Sheldon: *Knock knock knock* Penny. *Knock knock knock* Penny. *Knock knock knock* Penny. Penny: What's the gist, physicist?
These greetings were so catchy that I had to dig up and coin some more of these absolute gems. Check the following out for your own pleasure. What's the story, morning glory? What's the deal, satin feel? What's new, morning brew? How's the date, metalhead? Why so wary, sugared-dairy? What's the scene, jelly bean? Fiddle-de-dum! Morning, chum! What's cookin', good lookin'? I'm the boss, applesauce! Yes, indeed, pumpkin seed. Fair warning though, your chums will get annoyed after a bit, but isn't that the point anyway? You can always revert with: Take a hike, Mike! (Say it in the quintessential Rajesh Ramayan "Raj" Koothrappali way and you are golden!)
Catchy Phrases from Sitcoms
Over the years, the moving reels have given us catchphrases that have become legen-wait for it-dary in their own right. They are oft-repeated and never fail to serve their purpose of adding that punch to any conversation when slipped in ad libitum. Let's check some of these little verbal pieces of awesomeness out below that have rocked our world time and again. And fair warning again, mortals: I know that a Ted Mosby would call some of the specimens below "catchwords" and not "catchphrases" (reference: Well, technically, "awesome" wouldn't be a catchphrase. If anything, it's more of a catchword. - Season III, Episode 8: Spoiler Alert), but let's go with calling them catchphrases just for the fun of it, ok?

Sheldon Lee Cooper: I am not crazy/insane. My mother had me tested. Bazinga! There, there. You're in my spot.
Why is it his spot you ask? Well, In the winter that seat is close enough to the radiator to remain warm, and yet not so close as to cause perspiration. In the summer, it's directly in the path of a cross-breeze created by opening windows there and there. It faces the television at an angle that is neither direct, thus discouraging conversation, nor so far wide as to create a parallax distortion. I could go on, but I think I've made my point. And also, Cathedra mea, regulae meae. (That's Latin for "My chair, my rules.")

If you have time to lean you have time to clean. Sarcasm? I can't be impossible. I exist. Scissors cut paper. Paper covers rock. Rock crushes lizard. Lizard poisons Spock. Spock smashes scissors. Scissors decapitates lizard. Lizard eats paper. Paper disproves Spock. Spock vaporizes rock.

If there were any way for me to get soup at home, don't you think I would have thought of it? Penny: Holy crap on a cracker! No Shirt. No Shoes. No Sheldon. Oh, you're going to jibber-jabber about jibber-jabber?! Mrs. Wolowitz: Howard, the phone is ringing!

Tonight is gonna be legen - wait are we sure it's a good idea to go to a strip club.. Shut up Lily I'm in charge now - dary!
