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"
lol

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.

Of course.

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

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.

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.

I was at a posh ball the other week and friends all sat around the table; waiter asked everybody what they would like to drink. I waited for him to finish and walk away without asking me. Then...

"Boom! Boom! Garcon! You forgot one!"

The worst of it was, for the most part of that part of the evening, I was sat at that table- swinging on the back two legs of my chair like he does when he's listening to Marie talking about knowledge... LOL

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??
