"I’m about 150 into the replies and I haven’t seen this one...
"Who ya gonna call?”"

No kidding. That is probably one of the top most recognized phrases of modern culture. Even our grand-children would recognize that phrase. Sheesh, it and some variations have been used in many advertising spots and was once the most used movie phase in every day language. Very good one which reminds me...

"Where's The Beef?" Wendys commercial

"Spit"

Sounds familiar, but not ingrained into our pop culture. Please show what media it is from.

“I’m melting” is definitely a well-known phrase and probably used on occasion even today.

We watch many of the old TV shows on Hulu. They are far better than some of today’s shows.

Don't remember it and definitely not a common known phrase. But then, I could be wrong. So you get our wonderful consolation prize - A Genuine All-Purpose VEGA-MATIC!

We all know where your head is, but if you're going to play the game you have to read all the replys. I did that one.
