I have a confession: I've become obsessed with these Shit ____ Say videos. Honestly they are like drugs to me. I - who used to avoid YouTube like the cesspool it is - have spent more time than I care to confess watching everything from Shit Brown Boyfriends Say to Shit Fat Guys Say to Shite Irish Girls Say to Shit British Asians Say. As if I have any idea whether they're funny or not.


I have a confession: I’ve become obsessed with these Shit ____ Say videos. Honestly they are like drugs to me. I – who used to avoid YouTube like the cesspool it is – have spent more time than I care to confess watching everything from Shit Brown Boyfriends Say to Shit Fat Guys Say to Shite Irish Girls Say to Shit British Asians Say. As if I have any idea whether they’re funny or not.

Sidebar: I’m currently loving Shit Toronto People Say and Shit Toronto Girls Say. But my yanks out there probably aren’t going to think they’re funny.

But one video you won’t find on YouTube is Shit Max Says. Partly because I am way too lazy to make such a video but mostly because I – actually let me stop lying. It’s 100% because I am too lazy to make such a video.

Come out of my panty draw

My most frequently-used avoidance technique. “You need to come out of my panty draw”, “Why are you in my panty draw”, “I don’t know why you’re in my panty draw” is what I say when I don’t want to answer questions. For those of you who don’t get it, panty draw = panty drawers; i.e. my private business. And when you say that to people they either get confused or start laughing and completely forget that they were trying to get all up in your business. Truss me. It works!

….eh?

Yes I am Canadian and yes I say eh? All the time. “I know eh?”, “I’m always right eh?”, “you think you’re funny eh?”, “really eh?”. I say it all the time eh?

interesting

Interesting is my catchall phrase that works for every occasion. Sometimes interesting just means interesting. Sometimes it means “what you just said is actually not interesting at all”. It can mean “I’m done talking about this”, or “you’re lying and we both know you’re lying but I don’t feel like getting into it right now”. If I wasn’t listening to what you were saying but it’s clear you’re expecting a response, “interesting”.

RIGHT?!?

This is my highest form of agreement. If I only kinda agree with you I might say “I know right?” but when you are talking truths I’ll interrupt you to exclaim RIGHT?!? – half question half exclamation. Because I’m equal parts surprised and delighted that you actually know what you’re talking about.

I.am.getting.OLD

This is my answer for everything. I don’t want to go out tonight because I’m getting old. I forgot to pay my rent because I’m getting old. I punk out and avoid confronting someone because “I’m getting old eh?”.  I didn’t do any housework this weekend because I’m getting old and tired. There are more uses for this phrase but I’ve forgotten them because I’m getting old.

S/he could get it.

High praise in my book. The more times you can get it the sexier you are. For example, Lance Gross could get it from me once. Idris Elba could get it from me 9 times. But Minka Kelly could get it from me any way she wants. As many times as she wants.

That’s the shit that I say. What do you guys say?

    I want to play…I want to play…

    Things I say:
    1. “Whatevs”- usually means what you said needs to be dismissed and I don’t care to listen anymore.
    2. “That’s hot”- self explanatory but I only use this phrase if something is really hot.
    3. “I love (pronounced LUHHUVE)that”- this is the highest point of admiration for me.
    4. “Boy/Girl please”- usually means I am not buying your story and/or I don’t agree with what you are saying.

    That was fun Maxie!

  • LaLa says:

    Let’s see if the internet will continue to be a hating ass bitch and not post my comment…

    Shit I say…well let’s see…

    “thugging and bugging”- I use this to refer to when someone is doing some wild, off the wall craziness

    “bayyyy-beee” – I don’t know why I say it…but I do. It sounds fun.

    “but what do I know” I always say this after I give someone my 2 cents on something

    “you know what…” that usually comes before I spit that hot fire and tell someone off ex: You know what? If you don’t get the f*ck out my face with that foolishness….

    *sucks teeth* I tend to do that a lot. especially when I dont’ believe something you say

    “this muthaf*cker…”

    “that’s real cute” which means the opposite. I mean whatever you did or whatever just happened was wack

  • Krystal Light says:

    LOL! I am a fool for those Sh*t [somebody] says vids too. One of my faves is Sh*t Monks Say. It’s so funny because they don’t say anything. I was laughing my derrier off and my hubs was just looking at me like I had lost all of my mind.

    Sh*t Krystal says:
    1. “This is how you get punched in the nuts…” This is how I express my dissatisfaction with something you’ve said or done. My hubs has heard this so much that he can say it for me as in “This is how I get punched in the nuts?” *moves back* Sometimes I clean it up and say “…in the nose.”
    2. “Really?” You just made a mess or said something dumb.
    3. “That’s nothing amazing.” This is actually reserved for my son when he shows me that he can jump over the same throw pillow for the 517th time, dude you’re six, you can do better! Sounds mean but he said it to me first! I saw a limo and was like hey look at that! He was like “That’s nothing amazing.” Crushed my soul!
    4. “Nice, REAL nice.” Channeling my inner Bernie Mac when I see something/somebody that’s nice, real nice.

    Sh*t my favorite people say:
    1. My grandmother: “Looking like the wreck of the Hesperus,” “Let me see…said the blind man,” and my fave “The word…it’s eluding me.”
    2. Max: “Let me find out one of my readers…” or any variation thereof.
    3. Chloe Rayne: anything she puts in asterisks. It always cracks me up when she narrates her actions. Fave: *wipes off keyboard*
    4. Dr. Jay: “Word?”
    5. WIM: “Thank ya kindly.” I find myself saying sh*t just to get him to say it.
    6. Teflon Mom: “I’ll tell you what” or any variation thereof.
    7. Larry: “Comedy!”
    8. Linc: “Frowsy”
    9. My daughter: “Shh.” Every time I sing.
    10. Brenda (cashier at Walmart): “I just love you guys!” and “You did good (on our groceries)!”

  • RP1496 says:

    1.I too use Interesting…for the same reasons that you listed
    2.If I know you well enough, and I wasn’t listening I will say
    “I didn’t catch that/understand” which causes them to repeat it
    3.If I agree with you, I simply say “Agreed”
    4.When someone fits this I usually will refer to people/situations as “EXTRA” which is my equivalent to “doing the most”

    There are actually more but this was an off the top of my head response.

  • Larry says:

    This was pretty funny. “Eh” is def a Canadien thing, for sure, lol.

    What is it do I say? I didn’t think I had any that anyone would notice, but I guess I was wrong (Thanks Krystal…). Here’s what I got

    1. “Hot dee zam!”- I usually say this a lot when around certain college friends b/c that was our saying back then. It’s obviously spin off of ‘hot damn’…or ‘wow, smh’

    2. When people ask me “How have you been?”, you will find a common response from me being, “Oh, you know nothing much…same shit different toilet, ya know?”

    3. “Nothing too wild and crazy”- Usually when asked how my weekend went or trip or how anything I attended was…this is usually my initial response.

    4. “Stop it”- another fave that goes back to college. When you say or do something dumb or stupid this is what I say.

    5. “Comedy” or “That…is comedy!”- self explanatory.

  • Corey says:

    I’m thinking this eh? business is similar to a Canadian Juvenile….

  • Manny says:

    1. YOU are an asshole- Sometimes it just needs to be declared

    2. HUZZZAH!- Just an exclamation of joy.

    3. You’s a funny ass bitch- When someone’s says something slick.

    4. And I don’t give two shits- When you’re fully aware of doing or saying something HORRIBLE and Do. Not. Care.

  • Tara says:

    Love it!

    Things I say:

    “Is that so?” In response to lies or statements I don’t care to hear.

    “I can’t…” When I am witness to F-ery or can’t be bothered with the BS

    “I’m going to need someone to shoot me” Usually said when I am at work

    “I don’t give two shits”

    “I’m going to pretend you didn’t ask me that”

    “hell to the no”

    “You are absolutely right” When I say this, I have usually decided that I no longer want anything to do with this person.

  • Mabl says:

    All of these are too funny I love Tara’s “You are absolutely right!” I also love “eh,” watching Degrassi or anything with Canadians in it, or getting a call from one of my northern friends I get warm and fuzzy when I catch an “eh” (natural or scripted matters not). I can’t think of any me-isms . . . I’m sure I have them but I always think everything I do is a wonder and brand, brand new . . . I know I have some looks though that people who know me would probably crack up from a video with my face saying all the things I was a. trying not to verbalize or b. couldn’t verbalize properly.

  • ddddd says:
