I am wondering if anyone out there uses random words over and over again and says them out the blue in no reference to anything. My fifteen year old son does this.

Sexy jackass was one of the sayings. The funny part is the rest of the family will adopt these sayings. Sometimes itseems they are ebarrassing, such as "Nipples", "balls" , "fa***t with a hat on" (he heard someone yell this at a baseball game), "LOL albinos", and "tricksy is gay" (our cat). We haven't started using any of those sayings.

Sometimes they are funny, but mostly the habit is annoying. I got so mad at IKEA when he was muttering "balls" that I screamed out "balls" at the top of my lungs, causing people to look and asked him how he liked it.

I thought all people did this?

Where's the beef?
Barf me with a spoon
what up G?
That is SO gay.

When aspies do it(because it may not be popular catch phrase of others)it's called echoli(?)I think it is "verbal stimming"..sometimes a phrase or word just "tickels you fancy" and gets stuck in your brain and verbalizing it,releases it from the mental loop for awhile.Perhaps it is a mild form of tourettes.....my current one is..."Im a Sudoko maniac" but I am often getting song phrases(some really anooying ones...like"Delta Dawn" stuck in my head and have to sing it...drives my boyfriend batty.)

Yes i do it but at home. Not rude words though. It is not a tic just a stim. Stim is sort of automatic but not involuntary repetitive behaviour. I think if it was a tic your son would most likely be embarrassed by it and it would be very like they were barking. I think he is at the age were puesdo torrettes is kind of appealing.

Same here.. at home (...mostly), and not rude words. Actually, not words at all, more of a sound (...a bit like the sound of a whip)

"Sexy Jackass" :lol: I love that!

I do this quite frequently, as does my brother and middle daughter. I try not to do it around people I don't know well, but occasionally will in public. I'll shout out random words, nonsense words, or bits from commercials, sometimes curse words. I also call people odd names for no reason.

I laughed so hard yesterday after this exchange with my five-year-old boy:

Me: Brandon, you're a Lipitor. (Lipitor is a pharmaceutical)

Brandon: [laughing] Oh, yeah? Well, you're a Requip! (another pharmaceutical)

So, of course, now I go around saying "Requip" all day long. 8)

I have to give credit for this one to the web's own Tourette's Guy for coming up with the most offending and worst mish mashed cussword of all time - BOB SAGET!! ! <--CLICK*

Yeah, I do these little mish ups in my head all the time. I got my family repeating them as well, in the past. Silly little things like instead of saying Baracuda (a car my grandmother used to own) I would say "Bacuhrudah" (back-uh-rude-uh). And when other people were caught saying back-uh-rude-uh, they'd go crazy knowing they were caught repeating my funny little saying.

I am also prone to using Spoonerisms all the time. Instead of saying "I need to take a shower." I would say "I need to shake a tower." Or one other good one I used to go around saying is: "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal labotomy." (Say it to yourself - it will make sense).

Anyone here a fan of Vogon poetry? It's the third worst in the galaxy.

gender confused werewolf....that reminds me a of a letter that was sent home from my son's principal saying that she was concerned that he was calling everyone a "cat gender checker".

Hamster Hamster (he says that for thank you, which makes him uncomfortable to say he claims...sheesh!)

I tend to follow a rotation of such things

"I'm mr horowitz" is the current one I'm one.
