SHUT UP!

I say it all the time. I say it and I don't even realize I am saying it. Sometimes I mean it...and then those times I admit I am just rude, but considering the majority of the time, I am not saying it to be rude, I am simply using it to express my joy/surprise/satisfaction/disbelief/trepidation type of emotions. Really, the phrase could be used for any occasion at any given time.
Say, your teacher says, "Erin you have 2000 words of your novel due Monday by midnight." In all fairness, I would definitely say an appropriate response would be, "shut up..." (in a surprised, I'll meet your challenge and show you a thing or two - tone)

Perhaps a friend calls to tell you she has to cancel her planned photo shoot because her scumbag hoe lovin' brother in law is a cheater and his wife simply doesn't want to take family photos with him. Response: "Shut up!" (in a shocked, I totally agree with the woman, and give that guy a kick in the you know what - tone)

Or, your potty training 2 1/2 year old just pooped for the 4th time on your living room floor, just after he pooped on the dining room stool. Perfect Response...as opposed to killing him, "Shut UP! You did not just poop it out again." (in a I am on the verge of killing you but will try to control myself - tone)

And lastly, you go to DI and find the dang cutest RED wooden bench that will fit perfectly by the back door under the coat rack for 5$...and your friend just bought the same bench for over $100.00! "SHUT UP!" (in a there is no freakin' way I just got that great of a deal - tone)

You know you say it too, or you have your own substitute! Shout it out here...luv erin
