Favorite cliche formulas - Black Aeronaut - 11-11-2006

You know the kind. Ones like, "[Person]'s [situation] is not my [status/situation]."
One of my favorites is "You/They attached a [unlikely device] to a(n) [unlikely platform]!? Are you/they insane!?" Where, if directed at me, I would happily reply, "YES!"
How about the rest of you guys? You got any favorites?

I've always enjoyed a good take on "How can I possibly decide between [desirable in some way member of the appropriate gender] and [desirable in some other way member of the appropriate gender]? [choose one: I'll hurt them | They'll hurt me] if I ever do!"

the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
