-	Summary so far: the main argument for deleting is "This phrase is common and not unique to Homestar Runner," and Trey56, Brightstar Shiner, It's dot com, DAGRON, and Qermaq seem to hold this view. The main argument for keeping is "Yes, this phrase is common, but it appears so often (19 by my count) that it's notable."

Besides that, it genuinely seems like something Mike and Matt enjoy saying to each other as evidenced by the [[flag day]] DVD commentary.
