My standard response when my family asks me a question. "Cause I like to party".
Standard sign off from phone calls with my Dad, “write if you get work” (Old Bob and Ray radio show reference, he’s 87 and has been retired for over 23 years now.) Often returned with “wave with all your fingers” as we’re both Boston drivahs.
Usually when I smack my finger,head, elbow I will catch myself saying "that will leave a mark."
And then there is when you are trying to determine something. The occasional " don't ya know, eh?" Will come up.

One that's repeated between my father in law and his business partner:
"Otis? But you're white?!?!"
Blind squirrel finds a nut...
Ball lost in tall weeds...
Have fun storming the castle...
I use one liners so much my kids say them before me and roll their eyes...
My dad would always use an old SNL Father Guido Sarducci line, "He's no Smokey Robinson" in reference to just about anybody...
On a long road trip up I-91 to Vermont and upstate New Hampshire with my older sister and her new husband, we passed an exit sign for the towns of Fairlee and Orford.
My brother in law said, "We're getting Fairlee close"... followed immediately by a bunch of stuff about Little Orford Annie.
This started when I was ten years old, and continues to this day.
*GRM Bonus Points: This conversation originally took place in his 1973 Dodge Charger.
LIl Stampie and I have a thing that I don't know how it started. So Party A points out something where Party B doesn't want to admit they were wrong. Party A will then go "Hmmmm ..." and then Party B admits Party A is right by going a slightly shorter "Hmm ...". As he's getting older Lil Stampie is getting more Party A experience.
One that I use with the family all the time and they have stopped laughing.
Someone: I'm cold
Me: *produces lighter from pocket* I could set you on fire.
It was funny the first 64 times I used it.

Hah, my family lives in Fairlee. You hit on a common pun.
"I'm getting tired of being right all the time." - Me, anytime something bad happens.
"I'm an optimistic pessimist. I'm sure the worst is coming and I'm damn glad to get it over with." - Me, right before the bad stuff happens.
"Safety third"
And one for my friends from the lower mainland of B.C.
"If you can't get laid in Chilliwack, there's always Hope."
Well, well, well... (three holes in the ground)
Lighting the match was a big mistake. (Google The Flaming Gerbil)
