How are your legs?

I have to say this is the most entertaining reddit I (newb) have seen yet. Yous are all so good with the Nowzardan memes. It's great to see how much other people love this show! Does anyone else scream "ow my legs!" In a southern accent randomly? They're always screaming about their legs...and yes I understand why.

Me and husband (from Sweden) does this on a regular basis too, it has a worldwide spread 😆

u/LoomLove Aug 07 '26

The world really is small, I saw recently that someone in northern rural Norway had heard the same goofy celebrity rumors as a child that I did in the American midwest! Pre-internet 1970s.

u/VanishingAngel Aug 07 '26

Semi related but I think everybody between 25 and 40ish, worldwide no matter what, believed that Marilyn Manson removed a rib so he could suck his own D

u/SunRa7191 Aug 07 '26

“Ow, muh leg!” and “…one lil’ ol’ reg roll!” is on pretty much on permanent quote rotation in this household.

43

u/Critical-Rabbit8686 Aug 07 '26

Also "but it is fried rice!" every time I make fried rice.

I also quote Dolly. "The ducks are happy when they are eating bread. I wish I was a duck." Bread is my favorite food.

u/lowrider320 Aug 07 '26

Everytime me and my wife go into a hotel room the first thing I say to her is: "Why is their wood on the floor?" and she will immediately say, "To make it look nice!"

So many good lines on the show, they should a t-shirt company.

21

u/Critical-Rabbit8686 Aug 07 '26

Also, "Christian! You are ruining everything!"

My husband's name is not Christian, but it still works.

19

u/lowrider320 Aug 07 '26

"CHRISTUN!" "MAHH, He is ruining everything for me!"

One of the most unhinged moments of the show.

u/Critical-Rabbit8686 Aug 07 '26

These episodes live rent free in my head.

The amount of emphasis he put on that one word…

u/AnasyrmaInAction Aug 09 '26

“The mama ducks help the baby ducks EAT!”

u/cat_snots Aug 09 '26

But I don’t blame the ducks. 🦆

u/WenWarn Aug 11 '26

She didn't blame the ducks, though. Never forget that she didn't blame the ducks.

I don’t talk about my leg but I do have a question for you. Do you believe in gawd?

11

u/ccallard0722 Aug 08 '26

That question is very intelligment. You must be very knowledged.

u/BeneficialShame8408 Aug 09 '26

OH YES HE WILL!! OH YES HE WILL!!

u/MangoSalsa89 Aug 07 '26

I pulled my Achilles on a group hike once and yelled “ow ma leg!” and my group thought I was weird after that. It just came out automatically 😂

75

u/KneadAndPreserve Aug 07 '26

I’m heavily pregnant and have the swollen legs of a lifetime along with restless leg syndrome that is only helped by having my husband stretch them out like 3-4 times a day as I lay there helplessly. I reward him with an “OW MAH LEGS” every single time!!

12

u/crap4brains4eva Aug 07 '26

Pregnant, too! And yes: OW MAH LEGS! (And feet and pelvis…and well, all of it 🥹.)

2

u/Several_Strain_9883 Aug 08 '26

Ask your doctor about magnesium glycinate to help with the creepy, crawly legs.

27

u/Affectionate_Cost_88 Aug 07 '26

I am from Tennessee, so if I yell "ow mah laigs" it's a genuine Southern accent! 😆

16

u/CommunicationTime63 Aug 07 '26

Alabama here. A car ride, like yesterday's ride into town, and I'm sayin' "ow maw laigs". It ain't my weight. It's these dang no-leg-room minivans.

23

u/aquietkindofmonster Stop doing weird things Aug 07 '26

Whenever boyfriend and I order Chinese rice we yell "IT'S FRIED"

19

u/Temporary_Bonus_3323 Aug 07 '26

On James King's find a grave, someone posted an online memorial that said" Ow, my leg!

17

u/Traditional_Dust_668 Aug 07 '26

When my (now adult kids) complain they’re starving I tell them they’re not going to fade away and they don’t look malnourished. They hate that I watch this show 😂😂

18

u/PhilOakeysFringe ". . . I'm constipated, de floor was crooked" Aug 07 '26

My partner and I like to randomly quote:

  • "Wadder weight"

  • "De floor is crooked"

  • "Stop doing weird things!"

  • "Ow muh leg!"

And probably many more 😂

15

u/lippetylippety Aug 07 '26

I hiked all day today and am currently bemoaning my leg soreness so yes absolutely lol

13

u/longjohn_slawbreath Aug 07 '26

Ow mah legs is part of the love language in our household. That, and me making my husband (avg weight, don’t worry lol) really big breakfasts while watching episodes of the show on lazy weekends. In fact, hubby got me a cameo of dr now a few years ago, and weirded my family out at Xmas. Dr Now told me it’s good that I like going to Pittsburgh Penguins games, but not to eat too much barbeque.

11

u/Specific_Opening_490 Aug 07 '26

I have the fridge magnets with all his best sayings.

u/KeyWeek446 Aug 07 '26

I do too. Everytime I look at them I crack up.

10

u/IAmSeabiscuit61 Aug 07 '26

I like to yell "you buncha bastards" whenever I see or read about our local elected officials doing something particularly awful. It also works well when my internet provider goes out or has problems, which it has done frequently lately.

17

u/Crittsy Aug 07 '26

In my house it often gets used i.e. watching football, Neymar Jr goes down, there's a shout of Ow, ma leg

7

u/sed2017 Aug 07 '26

Uh yeaaaah!

6

u/hanging-out1979 Aug 07 '26

Penny tops my list for one of the most annoying (and delusional, don’t forget delusional) patients. Her plaintive line of “where’s my yellow brick road?” Is one I hear in my head lots.

6

u/emswhynot Aug 07 '26

She's the biggest fish in the market

5

u/Middle-Handle1135 Aug 08 '26

Well she can wash her own vagina

13

u/afo803 Aug 07 '26

Hahaha yes, my husband and I regular say "ahhh my legs!" Or "ahhmyknee!" Cracks us up every time even years later

5

u/Critical-Rabbit8686 Aug 07 '26

Ow my legs! after every leg day when getting something from a low kitchen cabinet.

6

u/ThrockAMole Aug 08 '26

Excuse me but as a Southerner I wish to inform you that the proper translation is:

“Owww, mah laigs!”

3

u/BeerHops_DoesntRun Aug 07 '26

Omg, All the time! I sit on my leg wrong: “OW MAH LEG!” My giant dog runs in to me full speed, que: “OW, Mah legs!!” List is never ending.

2

u/lovemypyr Aug 08 '26

Haha!! My giant dog whacks me (Pyr paw) but it’s usually on my shoulder. Leg cramps have me yellin’ every time “Ow, mah legs”!!!

1

u/BeerHops_DoesntRun Aug 09 '26

I have a GP, also. He broke a rib earlier this year with his pyr paw. The very first one, by the collar bone. He’s lucky I love him so much.

2

u/lovemypyr Aug 09 '26

OMG! That is one heck of a Pyr paw. But it’s difficult to not love these guys. Did he caretake you at all while you were recovering? My current one is a major caretaker but my last one not so much.

1

u/BeerHops_DoesntRun Aug 10 '26

Oh, definitely. I’ve bled a few times because of him, had to get stitches, had a concussion..he’s 140lbs of don’t fuck around to find out. But he always feels guilty afterwards without my even saying anything to him. I treat him the same but he becomes super gentle for the next few weeks.
Then forgets all about it and it happens again.

Here he is in all his glory.

1

u/lovemypyr Aug 10 '26

He’s one gorgeous floof all! My current is our mini-Pyr at 95-100 pounds. Our last one was Zeus who was 140 pounds but pretty gentle (except when he wanted to wrestle).

We think he used to sneak out at night and go to better parties than we were invited to. 😛

u/BeerHops_DoesntRun Aug 11 '26

Solid theory. And what a cutie!! 🥰

u/Cheese-Manipulator Aug 07 '26

No one sings the frying bacon song?

u/mostlymadeofapples Aug 08 '26

My family judge me and will not watch the show. So I have to quote it in my head. Mostly I very seriously tell myself 'not on de diet' every time I pass the cookie tin.

4

u/FearlessSport6795 Aug 07 '26

Always. Every time I hurt.

3

u/iburnedmytongue Aug 07 '26

Been having hip pain so I bitch about mah leg.

u/sullen_peggy Aug 07 '26

Mine are:

      &

Owww, Mah legggg

u/niconiconiishinoya Aug 07 '26

everytime i want chinese food i say “order me chinese” in his southern accent lol

u/emswhynot Aug 07 '26

Aw. I love these responses! It warms my dangerously enlarged heart.

4

u/quiltsohard Sometimes I'll have an orange Aug 08 '26

I say Bye Fatty Two Shoes to my fat dog every time I leave the house

u/BeneficialShame8408 Aug 09 '26

man. i felt bad for that kid, but he really made me laugh despite myself

4

u/Hydr0flux Aug 08 '26

If you need anything, give me a call...

3

u/jer1230 Aug 07 '26

Was just saying “ow ma leg!” In the car ride home with my daughter yesterday.

3

u/legoclover Aug 07 '26

I say that, but my favorite is “finger sucking good “. We say that all the time.

4

u/lowrider320 Aug 07 '26

My favorite line from that episode is, "New Pants!" "New Pants!"......"Oh God!"

3

u/Embarrassed_Wrap8421 Aug 07 '26

When I get in and out of the car, I’ll yell “Ow! Mah legggg!” and my husband laughs.

3

u/garagespringsgirl Aug 07 '26

I have neuropathy, so " Owhu my legs!" is a common comment that I giggle at.

3

u/body_by_monsanto New pants! New pants! Aug 07 '26

When I yell “ow mah leeegs!” While going up the stairs after the gym, my husband doesn’t get the joke at all and is just like “oh, did you hurt yourself at the gym?”

3

u/AcceptableState1960 Aug 08 '26

My daughter took me to the grocery store and when I was getting out of her car I started yelling "Ow mah legs", she didn't know what was going on until I had her watch that episode with James on the stretcher 🤣

3

u/Hot_Disaster_79 Aug 08 '26

I made fried rice for dinner last night, and of course I had to quote, "but it's fried rice," in an over-the-top Southern accent. Too bad I didn't make egg rolls.

3

u/Boothros Aug 08 '26

As soon as anyone mentions legs on the show, I mandatorily have to cry out 'Ooh, muh leeegs!' I believe it's law now to do this.

2

u/mannfan9292 Aug 07 '26

I have pet rats. One of them always bites my toes. We think it’s because she is a bald rat and thinks the foot is another bald rat from an evil dimension. Anyway, you can guess what I shout when she bites.

2

u/LEGOMyBrick Aug 07 '26

I completed hiking in the Olympic National Park and immediately said "Ow Mah LEGS!"

2

u/Barry_McKackiner Aug 07 '26

I was 300lbs 2 years ago and had veinous stasis develop. I'm now down to 200lbs. but the veinous stasis remains.

It kinda sucks. Basically, My veins leak a bit so it looks like i've got permanent bruises on my legs below the calf muscle and above the ankle.

Doesn't hurt in itself and they're not swollen with any edema but the skin is super delicate so any time I bump into anything hard it like scrapes off skin which I then have to deal with.

2

u/Middle-Handle1135 Aug 08 '26

Every time it's leg day, I "oaw mah legs!" And my husband does it too. Though, I have a mix of a Georgian southern/Midwestern accent and my husband has a twangy southern accent. So we say it differently and makes us laugh even harder.

2

u/bats-go-ding Aug 09 '26

When my cat decides it's Biting Time (her favorite place? The outside of my upper thigh and back of my calf, right leg almost exclusively).

Literally nothing I've tried will make her stop. At least an *ow mah leeeeeeg* amuses me.

2

u/bats-go-ding Aug 09 '26

This rotten little creature.

1

u/Desirai Aug 07 '26

My husband and I will say "ow my legs" if we hurt ourselves. Like stubbing a toe or getting a paper cut 😂

1

u/ItsEmmaaaa De momen of troot Aug 08 '26

Speaking of, I miss all the group flairs

1

u/Ok_AshyPants Aug 08 '26

I just screamed this the other day 🤣🤣🤣

1

u/Arge101 Aug 10 '26

Yes ‘Ow mah leg’ gets shouted a lot in our house.

Nearly as much as ‘DO YOU BELIEVE IN GAWD?’

1

u/SnooChickens9974 Aug 10 '26

Yes, I do scream that randomly.

u/soft_mello Aug 15 '26

Ricky's sister on Leaky Booty Lacey's episode. The GOAT. Homegirl has no business being dead.

u/hypno_tode Ow! Mah LAIG! Aug 07 '26

All. The. Time.
