Catch-Phrase Spouting Duo

Go To

A pair of young slackers who provide a steady stream of neologistic slang for the youth of today.

May overlap with Those Two Guys and Heterosexual Life-Partners.


Examples:

    open/close all folders 

    Anime & Manga 
  • Team Rocket from the Pokémon the Series, mainly with their motto.
    Team Rocket: "Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again..." *ping*
    • Of course, this has been lampshaded by now and variations aren't so unusual:
    Jessie & Meowth: "Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again..." *ping*
    James (currently separated from his team-mates): "I could have sworn someone just screamed blasting off again, but we copyrighted that didn't we? Oh well!"
  • Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: "Who the hell do you think we are!?"
