    Default A world of slogans and catch-phrases.

    Stop. Think small. Everywhere you look, you're going to read or hear a slogan or catch-phrase. If you think about it, it's everywhere. You know? It's everywhere you want to be. But in this thread, you can have it your way. However, just don't leave home without it. Be all you can be, and think different, because nothing runs like a Deere. When you care enough to send the very best, let your fingers do the walking. And don't get mad, get glad, because you can't have the breakfast of champions. Celebrate the moments of your life. Double your pleasure, double your fun, because it's good to the last drop.

    Ah, how I wish I was an Oscar Meyer Wiener, so I can buy the world a Coke, because it's the real thing. M'm, m'm, good! Just be sure that you don't run for the border, because the King of Beers doesn't want you to. However, if you must, just do it. It is an American revolution when you're in good hands. Get the feeling? It's all inside the spirit of American style. Yeah, it's kinda like that. However, just be you, and obey your thirst.

    D'oh! With all these slogans, you can't forget about pop culture. But I'll just leave that all to you.

    Seacrest out!

    (p.s. can you identify the slogans in this post? Also, when you reply, make sure you slip in a slogan or catch-phrase in your post.)

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    Your thread title made me think of Saul Williams's spoken word portion in Blackalicious's song "Release" off their album "Blazing Arrow". An excerpt below.

    These tools are not words of communication
    They are shards of metal
    Dropped
    From eight story windows
    They are waterfalls and gas leaks
    Aged thoughts rolled in tobacco leaf
    The tools of a trade
    Barbers barred, barred from barters
    Catch phrases, and misunderstandings
    But they are not what I feel when I am alone
    Surrounded by everything and nothing
    And there isn't a word of phrase to be caught
    A verse to be recited
    A mantra to fill my being
    I am a blankness, the contained center of an O
    The pyramidic containment of an A...

    Arrow!

    Slogans and catch-phrases are everywhere these days. You really can't go anywhere anymore without bumping into one. Even right now, I'm sitting in my school library and there's a sign on the wall that reads "You are being watched" with Big Brother eyes looking down on me, implying there are cameras installed.

    But it hasn't gotton to the point where I hate them. In fact, I quite enjoy quoting random catch phrases or slogans whenever I deem them appropriate. It's great for lightening up a conversation or just starting one. I'm lovin' it.
