The Love Guru Catchphrases You'll Soon Be Sick Of

thumbnail icon: The Love Guru Catchphrases You'll Soon Be Sick Of

There are now two annoying trailers for The Love Guru, which means it's time to predict catchphrases. (Yes, that's what that means.) Avoid the embarrassment of hearing a six year old in line at Target say "He looks like he's smuggling a Schnauzah!" and not understanding why. If the Austin Powers franchise taught us anything, it's that we'll be hearing these forever.

  • Oh my god, I just got that!
  • Dammmmmn!
  • Was that upsetting?
  • I'm sorry, I didn't catch your gnome. Name! I did not hear anything?Looks like he's smuggling a Schnauzah!

And the trailer catchphrase most likely to catch on is:

(I used to have a ____ like that) ... But then my Mom got a job.

Which is really terrible considering the economy. Good job, Mike Myers. Kids whose Moms lost their jobs are going to cry this summer because of you.

After the spiritually pretentious Mike Myers/Deepak Chopra Iconoclasts episode we get this? Random note: A sold out Iron Man crowd last week was just bawling with laughter at this trailer. It makes me almost yearn for a revival of the "Sprockets" script.
