Catch Phrases & Tressla

Catch phrases go in and out of style sometimes as often as fashion. In this video blog, Matt Koval reflects on some of the catch phrases he used in the late 1980s, early 1990s. Some of them were just plain trifling.

*The official definition of tressla: (TRESS-luh) -adjective. Beyond awesome, reaching the upper echelons of coolness, with a slightly sarcastic tone and a scent of cheese. "That Iron Man movie was awesome, but The Dark Knight was tressla!"

TOTAL RECALL was an Arnold Swartzenegger movie from 1990.

Nah Doii.

I'm only sixteen, and my group of friends used to say that!

"No duh!" Is definitely the biggest one from the 90's. I still say that and I was only a little kid then, so for it to have carried through all the way til now (for me at least)...yeah definitely big.

This is great. Also, does anyone know what the name of that violin/cello instrumental was at 2:08?
