I prefer “Nipply” to “Nippy”, as in “It IS a bit nipply out”

I’m a developer and sometimes I have to use c dash dash dash.

I know it’s poor coding but Esquire doesn’t need to get their panties all wee-wee’d up about it.

Well right now my wife and I are calling each other GrandDad and G-G.

She always manages to do it when I'm around young women for some reason.

Like most people, I am trying to cut down on swearing. But I slip and it comes out.
The other day I was trying to get something from the top shelf with a forktruck.I backed up and brought down a overhead light fixture on top of my head, showering me in glass, steel, rust and about forty years of bird droppings.A piece of glass went thru the safety cage and tore into my nose.
I let loose a stream of “F: bombs that impressed both of my bosses, both of them members of the Marines Corp. The big boss was so impressed with the volume of my tirade that he told me I should go to confession.
Swearing is a safety valve for stressful situations. A man shouldnt swear enough to strip the paint off a four poster bed, but it should be in everymans arsenal, unless he is religious.

I'd like a second helping of quiche, please

Your place looks FABULOUS

Do these pants make me look fat?

My wife and I are pregnant

I'd like a LIGHT beer, please

There's a lot of unnatural phrases for men
 

Great list, thanks for posting ;-)

Just a few more that came to mind:

"I just hate guns"

"Don't you just love the latest photo spread of President Obama in Time?"

"Michelle is truly a fashion icon"

"Why does he need such a big truck?"

"I don't mind paying higher taxes"

Any sentence suggesting that you know precisely what color 'mauve' is.

"I hated that old car....it had way too much horsepower"

"I'm proud to consider myself a Feminist"

"Of course gay people should marry and be treated equally in every way...what's wrong with that?"

"I wish that I could vacation in Cuba....Fidel is such an inspiration!"

"Stupid Americans!"

"I'm having trouble managing my hair"

Cursing is not ABOUT thought. If someone thinks about it, THEN uses a curse word, they sound lame. And gay. Cursing is about ejaculating the first bad words that come to mind, nad if you have to think, too late. It’s about being in the moment.
