yea About That....

This weekend my friend Brandon came into town. We were discussing weight loss when Brandon said "I bought a scale" and I said "How's that working out for you". He responded with "Yea, about that". This is one of my favorite phrases.

It is such a versatile phrase. Here are some of my favorite examples of its usage.

For creepy guys you ask you out....

When your boss asks where an assignment you've been working on is.....

When your friends ask you about something you dont want to discuss.....

To your boss when you thought you were getting a raise and he responds with....

After a break up when one responds with, "but i thought you loved me"......

I thought you gave up drinking/cigarettes/drugs/ex boyfriend.....

How's your diet coming.....

To a boyfriend/husband about an anniversary they should have remembered....

To a family member who asks when you're going to start having kids.....

Thats all I have so far. Feel free to start using my favorite phrase as often as you'd like. Also please comment on your favorite uses of the phrase.

I use that all the time, usually dragging out the "yeah" longer than it really needs to be, lol.

First of all, congrats on being SAUCY!! I love this phrase too! It works for me when my mom asks, "Have you sent those thank you cards yet to so and so?"
Or I will hear it when you ask a certain in-law about finishing a home improvement project for you which they started about 6 months ago and is not compeleted yet!! Great stuff!

That phrase is definitely a keeper! One of my favorites that I like to use is "and your point is....??" whenever someone points out the obvious, as if I didn't already notice, like when my husband comes home from a long day of work and sees the house is a mess and asks, "I can see the kids kept you busy today".

Visiting your blog from SITS!!!

I love "yeahh about that" almost as much as I love ending up anything innapropriate in "that's what she said..."
