Do You Ever Use Prince Lines in Normal Conversation?

Okay... I'ma fess up.

I've been known to throw a line or two from my fave lyrics or movies as off the cuff, tongue and cheek, responses to friends and family.

"If the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy, punch a higher floor"

"I'm gonna do u afterschool, like homework"

I said one to my friend today. When she was trying to pick out an outfit this morning, she said 'what goes with a peach skirt?' So I picked her out a little black top, and she asked me if peach goes with black. My response:

"Of course it does. Colour you peach and black, colour me taken aback!"

Cue the strangest facial expression I've ever seen from her!

I have a habit of saying "you've got a wonderful ass" when I see an attractive person. I also have a habit of saying "go to hades boy" when someone pisses me off.

when i leave work at the end of the day i say

MAY U LIVE TO SEE THE DAWN

When I'm about to make a point, I say "And that says what?"

i tell my sister to "act your age not your shoe size all the time"

and in my head whenever i see someone walk into a store through the "out" door i get raspberry beret stuck in my head

Morris' line: Either somebody put something in my drink or you’re the finest motha...(said in a real quiet / half mumble) I have seen in ages.

AKA - You look lovely tonight.

Of course.

At thanksgiving, I say "Could you please pass the stuffing?", followed by, "I just hate to see an erection go to waste."

All the time...just the other day I some druggy hanging out on the street,and I asked him "what you puttin up your nose? Is that where all your money goes?"

"Cool, as the other side of the pillow"

"Did I say an hour, my face is red, I stand corrected".

"The Beautiful Ones always smash the picture... always, everytime".

(People think I'm crazy!)

Normal conversation - no. That would be unsettling.

Instead, get your partner slightly drunk, put on some soft music, and dress in a Darth Vader outfit.

When the mood turns romantic, whisper softly

"With the accurate understanding of God and His law
they went about the work of building a new nation:
the Rainbow Children"

You'll be surprised.

No, I usually speak spanish ... and the way and sense are differents in other language I guess...

I do, but cannot think of a specific case off the top of my head.

And actually, I usually just THINK them.

"Avez-vous un crayon?"

me to my (now) girlfriend one and a half years ago when we first met (i was 14, she was 13): "im not saying this just 2 be nasty, but i sincerely wanna fuck the taste out of your mouth."

that line is a magical one, now she loves me 4 me

and instead of "shit happens" i usually say "sometimes it snows in april"

when someone is acting silly or crazy i say

you're a bit of a manic, aren't you

langebleu said:

Also, why is one of the guys yelling “Purple Rain” like it’s fricking “Freebird”?

The only thing that I have ever really quoted Prince for on several occassions during conversations, is, "The road U choose 2 walk in this life is the one that leads into the next."

I believe that statement is very powerful in a spiritual realm.

Nuestra presentacion especial comenzara en breve

Pero antes un mensaje de nuestros auspiciadores


I'm sorry.


To be honest, I haven't used a Prince line for the last 10-15 years. I used to copy him a lot when I was young but nowadays
I have to with Nothinbutjoy, I THINK lines and words of him but not out loud, people would think even more that I'm crazy

I lied, I actually used THAT line in Paris 1.5 week ago
Of course no one understood

So I am still childish....

Yes, At work I always say someone's busy doing nothing.

I say a lot of things for the sole purpose of confusing people or getting them off my back by talking nonsense.
And yes.
Some of them are Prince Lyrics.

there's walmart that's near my house, and for some reason, it seems they switched the sides of the in & out doors. whenever someone is with me and we go through the out door, i say, "we walked in through the out door, our door."

i probably don't use as many lines in conversation as much as i think about them

Just today.

A coworker was talking about leaving the department after 5 years, how it felt weird but it was time to move on.

I said "please access a new experience".

That is a Prince saying... right??
