“Dave’s pizza and abortion clinic, your loss is our sauce” is a particularly spicy one I’ve heard.

I usually get people with: “Anons Morgue: you kill ‘em, we chill ‘em.”

My go to is “Yellow”

I usually hit my friends with the “sup fuckface”

Snackbar Harry, Harry speaking

“Duffy’s Morgue, you stab em we slab em.”

I like the explanation that devious spirits cannot say this phrase and that’s why it’s used. Apparently it’s also just a casual way of saying “I’m ready to talk” and was used by early telephone operators in Japan. It’s most likely people just ended up copying the phrase from operators and aren’t worried about being tricked by foxes.

Japanese people answer their phone like that, everything is fine.

I answer my phone like that, I’m branded a weaboo for the rest of my life.

I can’t read this phrase anymore without reading it in Admiral Kizaru’s voice automatically.

I thought of the same. I assumed this anachronism was meant to imply he was incredibly old and around for the initial rollout of the telephone.

I love the fact that Burns answers the phone this way. Subtle jokes like this are the reason why The Simpsons is infinitely rewatchable.

Graham-bell isn’t better. He was super duper ableist and pressured Helen Keller to identify with her blindness instead of her deafness
