Over time, anything that was originally funny becomes overdone. Especially here on the message board, people tend to overuse O&A terms, and they get rather old, not to mention unoriginal. The ones I think that have gotten old are:

Deek (or Nice Head Deek)
Die, Get in the Coffin
Tool (not neccesarily an O&A term but SO overused)
Okay Terrific
Any AIDS joke
Any use of intitials for curses like Fing or Holy S, just say the curse, we are not censored here.

And finally, A lot of people might say "Dillon" has gotten old, but it hasnt been used for a while and I don't mind it so much because it brings back a lot of memories of the old days of the board when we gave the term its true meaning.

There might be others, but I cant think of them right now.

So which phrases could you do without being used on the board anymore?

well "get adopted" seems to be a knee-jerk reaction for anyone who has less than 50 posts, regardless of the content of what the person says.

Speaking of Dillon, I'd like to know the origin of that. I have no idea since I'm in Boston and have only been (once again) been around the show for a few months. Is it a show term, or a board term?

"Dillon" originally came from the show. It's the Arnold Swarzanegger clip from Predator, and Ant loved it so much he started playing it to death on the show. Then we gave it our own meaning on the board, when someone posted a stupid thread or reply, they would get a "Dillon". It has been like that ever since.

I agree with you Sleeper...Die, get in the coffin and Dillon are getting real old. But I still love saying Nice head Deek and I hope you slip in a pool of AIDS. One that I am getting sick of is please don't roon it or I rooned it.

The people that abuse the whole "Pool of AIDS, puddle of AIDS" or anything like that just arent funny. You are just ripping off Norton and making yourself seem like a bigger ass.

Even when ripping off lines from Norton, it's still funnier than Vos.

And, we could never hope to look like a bigger ass than you Austin. ;)

When shit ain't funny no more, people stop saying it. Some stuff is timeless. Can you hear "AssF" too many times? I think not. And "AssF" is funnier than assfuck. So there goes your don't use the letter theory. Cursing is good sometimes, and letters are better sometimes.

Oh yeah, one more thing....

Definitely Die Get in the Coffin, although apparently it was rather new to Dice lol...I still like the Dillon one, when used right. Another one that got old was the slipping in a puddle of AIDS. Not many others, which shows you how much die get in the coffin and slipping in a puddle of AIDS is used around here.

It is my belief that all phrases and terms used on the O&A show are used in context and when applicable. It is only when the particular phrase is used out of context that it becomes overused. Therefore, only the Jim Norton "Die in a puddle of AIDS" would be the only one being overused. All others, going back to "Okay, Brother" and "Okay, Terrific", no matter how old they are, are still useful to this day. Those comments are used when needed and not overused.

We seem to have forgotten the ever-lingering "You guys suck" and "I'm gonna go listen to myself". How is it possible that people don't understand how old and annoying these are? They must be stopped.

"Ok Terrific" is my FAVORITE! I have it as my email notification.

I like all of the sayings! Maybe I havent been listening long enough for anything to be old(3 months?)

Rules I go by:
1. Aids joke always funny
2. "Die and Get in the coffin" Pretty much shuts up the morons in your life

I think the "Always Funny" phrase is getting over used by Opie. When Norton says it, it's always funny.

Kid Afrika, I totally agree with you on this. You don't hear much of the Spaz line anymore.

I notice not a show has gone by lately without at least someone saying "NICE!" Still, at this point it hasn't got old, but I can imagine how it will hold up in a year or two...

EDIT: I myself even say it from time to time, it's grown on me. And I wouldn't be surprised if it's grown on you as well...
