Well, since you can recite them from memory, whoever wrote them did their job pretty well.

I wanna dip my balls in it!

Either an SNL catch phrase or an add for a special dip for cheese balls, can't remember which. [xx(]

There was something about "we're all going to make so much money we'll get to dip our balls in gold..." that caught my attention, but I don't remember where i heard it.

Operation anything. You hear it a lot more during times of conflict.

it's from 'The State'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_State_(TV_series)

Louie, played by Ken Marino, was one of the more ironic characters on the show, parodying sketch comedy characters who rely on stupid catchphrases for cheap laughs. Louie was a genial fellow with a strong desire to dip his "balls" (actual golf balls, not testicles, although the innuendo was certainly intentional) in various things. His catchphrase, naturally, is a very enthusiastic "I wanna dip my balls in it!"

my least favorite 'catch phrase' is:

The way forward.

This was from a 1990s sketch comedy show on MTV called "The State."  Really, really awesome.

I always like:

"Our People Make the Difference"

Any company that doesn't have the creative skill to communicate to their customers on a non-cliché level is a business I don't want to use!

I like the honest slogans:

"We work as little as possible for as much of your money as possible."

"If you've got the cash, We've got the pockets"

"We love what we do, so pay us for it, you deadbeat."

"Lets get rich together"

"We are an investment in our future"

"We don't charge an arm and a leg, we want cash!"

joebaloney

Here's an overused slogan format for the linguists....

[present participle + noun], one [noun] at a time.

Changing the world, one family at a time.
Making a difference, one what-the-hell-ever at a time.
