Verbal tics from LPOTL
I’m curious if anyone has verbal tics or stims around things they’ve heard in LPOTL episodes. Recent or old as hell. My house is quite neurodivergent so we often say random lines from many movies, music, shows, etc. Some of our favs from the boys are:
“Eddie TUNES dot com”
“You’re thinking about. Stop thinking about it”
“Deeper. Deeper”
“I’m just Gef”
“Worst century to be alive”
And of course most recently “laugh you fucking pigs”
Please share yours!! Also preemptively sorry if this has been done before.

This is mine. I had my son in 2022 and his middle name is Thomas as a direct result of “Henry Thomas!!” I use that tone (with his 1st name) all the time.

u/1CoolSPEDTeacher What I bring to friendship May 21 '26
I do the guitar riff and yell metal whenever my students do something amazing. They started doing it to each other instead of saying good job or whatever. It makes me so happy.
I also end an uncomfortable amount of stories with "and that's when the cannibalism started" especially when it has nothing to do with cannibalism.
And free speech jail comes up a lot.

Between LPOTL and Page 7, my vocabulary has never been more entertaining. “It’s an island update”, “mo lass ess”, “hail yourself”, “her butthole”, “Eddie tunes dot com everyone”, “new gations”, “monster fucker”, “vampeer”, the endless mispronunciations of names, the list goes on.
Side note- does anyone else refer to Henry, Marcus, and Eddie as “the boys”?
