Hot to Trot....or NOT?


Hot to Trot?

Have I aged myself exponentially but using this phrase? That seems to be the argument between myself and “Super Awesome” and so I put it to you, Blogosphere, to weigh in.

Sure, there’s a movie from way back in 1988 starring BobcatGodthweit, and the sheer mention of 1988 should be a red flag that yes, Hot to Trot is NOT a modern phrase… but friends, there are just some things that are ageless! Regardless of their time, these things should be said without abandon and without fear of being ridiculed!

Because really, I am too awesome to be judged for my catch-phrases.  

For example:

“NOT!”. As in, “ I am sooooo funny! NOT!” Still funny.
“A-Duh!”. Coined by Hillary Banks of Fresh Prince fame. She kills me.
“And Now you Know And Knowing Is Half The Battle”. GI Joe will never get old.Shame on you for hating.
“Let’s get the 411”. Cause we all use that one. Don’t lie.
“Barf me out”. Valley girls will never go out of style. Never. Only maybe when Alicia Silverstone bites it.
“Big Time”. As in "Did you get that raise you were looking for at work, Dude?" Oh yeah I did. Big Time! Used daily in the office. I swear.Well except the raise part
“Take a chill Pill”. Unless it’s take literally. Chill Pills might be slang for something else too… I’m not sure.
“Eat my Shorts”. Bart Simpson has been 8 yrs old for 20 years, his catch phrase should be respected. 
“What’s Crackalackin;?” NOBODY sounds stupid saying that.
“Wassssssssssssup!” I used this one minutes ago, and I’m cool.
“Later Days and Better Lays”. A phrase said as good bye. Sounds so much cooler stoned. Not that I would know.

So you see, Hot to Trot is like all of these. An ageless phrase that we should all be rockin’ hard on a daily basis.

I sound older than my 31 years now don’t I? *sigh*

Fair enough. 

But lastly... 

“Fuck You”. That one seems to be a favorite.
