I noticed recently that I tend to think to myself "it is done, it is done!" a la Daenarys buying the Unsullied whenever I finish something that took a lot of effort or time. Do you guys ever find yourself using a phrase from the series in real-life situations? Might be that you don't even realize it, you stupid.  :thumbsup:

What I find my friends and I use a lot:

"It is known," often retorted with, "you know nothing."

"In the game of *blank*, you *blank* or you *blank*."

"It's the only thing I ever wanted."

It is known.

It is NOT known.

You know nothing, Jon Snow. I just use the whole phrase, unaltered.

When you play the game of ________, you win, or you die.

Hodor!

ETA The things I do for love.

Seven hells.

Some phrases slip in here and there but ASoIaF has totally altered my way of thinking about some things and I can't help it xD I had a nurse named Rivers in the hospital and all I could think was "A bastard from the riverlands"

I work at a vet hospital and deal with clients all the time. Stone, Hill, Rivers, even a Flower. EVERYTIME I see them now I think.... "bastard."

I always use "The gods" instead of "God," even when thinking to myself.  "Seven hells" and "half a hundred" as well.  Oh, and yeah, I met Jonah Hill a few weeks ago, and I almost asked him a question about being a bastard or about the Westerlands.

I got an email from my bank... dark wings dark words.
I got up to go to the bar, I told my friends... beer is coming. It was my round.
I was too busy to go to the store, I said... One does not simply Warg into the store.
Rather than waiting to be told so, I tell others that I know nothing. Though, I was using that phrase before ASOIAF as a Hogan's Heros reference.
I used a pick-up line on a red head last weekend, "you have been kissed by fire". Initial response was good, ultimate failure because I was "in my cups".
After being in my cups I fell on the way home, what falls cannot fall but rises harder and stronger than before.
