Do you have a favorite saying that is used in the books?

I picked Silly-billy-goo-goo by Claire and Hi-hi by Jamie because I think these two catchphrases sound cute.

I picked "Nofe Air! Nofe Air!" by Claire Pike because, despite not liking most of Kristy's books, Kristy and the Walking Disaster is one of my all-time BSC favorites, and that phrase reminds me of Claire's tantrums in that book. ;D For my second, I picked "Oh my lord" by Claudia Kishi.

I picked "Oh my Lord" because it's a normal expression but I always picture Claudia saying it in a funny, overly dramatic way.
Also, "Boo and Bullfrogs" because I thought it was cute that Karen kinda made up her own swear words.

I picked oh my lord because I say it ALL the time. Especially when I'm trying to play the piano and it's a mess... i go "oh my lord..." as in ..that was HORRIBLE. I also use "nofe air" sometimes. I play a lot of online games in leagues...and it comes out in gest  I don't know if I've actually spoken it though. |

I love Claudia's and Jamie's catchphrases a lot. Those got to be the cutest ones.

I forgot Karen's "meanie-mo" as a voting option. That girl made up too much crap to keep track of. Did anyone else say anything worth mentioning?

I don't really care for Claudia’s catchphrase. It just doesn't sound right.

I voted for Claudia's. The others all annoy me! Note how Claudia's spoken habits puts her in the company of 4, 5, and 6-year-olds.  |

Some of the catch phrases are pretty cute. Most of Karen's annoy me, but I wonder if this is just because she says them more often?
I like Chilly and Dibbly Fresh alot.

Thanks, maddieruns. I had blocked dibble out of my mind. There was a book where Mallory said it practically every chapter. I read it and felt like that scene in Mean Girls where Regina told Gretchen to stop trying to make "Fetch" happen. Shut up Mallory, you will never make "Dibble" happen!

Lamo, I love that movie. Now I’ve got a mental picture in my mind of Mallory-as-Gretchen going on in a rambling speech about they should totally just stab Caesar. Did any of the other baby-sitters ever say anything about this phrase? It makes realize how nice these girls really are.
