Personal catchphrases, more or less type or enneagram related (?):

overuse of qualifiers: "some", "this could mean", "this seems to point to", "a tendency to", "to a certain degree","there seems to be a certain correlation between x and y" (general aversion towards simple black and white statements)
"Yeah, but you are overlooking some strong structural differences here"
"I know it's a bit of a cliché/I know it's not very original to say, but..."
"It's nothing special/this book is not world literature/this movie is not exactly Bergman, but.."
"Either way is fine, whatever works for you"
Suddenly talking about self as "one" or the rhetorical "you" or even "that girl" when psychoanalizing own feelings and interaction with others (as in "when x happens, one thinks y" instead of "I think y")
"Yeah, right!" (putting on cynical look and wondering if I'm slowly turning into my mother who has that exact same look and tone of voice down to an art)
Strategically unwise preemtive excuses: "Hello. Sorry, I know I'm late/should have called earlier/send you the text, but..."
"Where was I? Oh yeah, right!" *tries to pick up trail of thought*
"Oh, by the way, that reminds me of...>insert seemingly unrelated story<"
"I see your point, but..."
"I still don't understand what your getting at. Maybe it's me. Explain again, as if you were talking to a six year old"
(to eight armed ex bf): "Get out of my bubble!"
"It's got nothing to do with you, I just need some time to myself"
"I'm tired"
"Meh, I don't feel like doing x right now"

and let's not forget:
"Everything tastes better with paprika/garlic!"

"I will cut you!" and its variants. (In hindsight, this is an alarming repeat expression. FTR, I have never cut anyone.)
"Hrmmm..."
"I'll have to think about that." or "I'm unfamiliar with that."
"WTF!?"
"Negative."
"om nom nom"
"You're killin' me <blank>, you're killin' me!"

"frankly my dear, I don't give a damn"

My husband, who I think is a 6w7, says stuff like this all the time. It drives me nuts! I have a hard time believing he really thinks that, it's like he's saying it so that people will think he's a regular, humble guy. I don't know. Maybe he really does think it...?

Do you?

I can't rep the same post twice, but I just wanted to add, it's a way to communicate that you are not a threat to anyone, so we can all put down our weapons and feel safer.

"It's all good."
"That's freaking awesome."
"What?"
"Does that make sense/do you understand?"
"Why?
"Is that correct?"
"That was stupid."
"Fuck yeah."

"I put on underwear for this?"

Which I think is pretty classic type 5.

Aww.
YAY.
Mmm.
What do you mean/what do you mean by that?
It's okay.
It's fine.
I don't feel strongly one way or the other.

"Unacceptable" (This is mostly for TK)

"That is just ridiculous."

"You're kidding right?"

"Look....."

"What a retard."

"Jesus!"

I can probably think of more...

"What you doin'?"

"How's you?"

"But, what if...."

"Why?"

"For sure!"

"That's cool."

"How did that happen?" [usually to an audience, after something was triggered by my action :cheese:]

"Nice!"/"NOT NICE!"

"Awesome!"/"You're awesome!"/"I'm freakin' awesome!"

"Doh!" :doh:

"Shit!"

"Fuck me! I'm an idiot!" [just did that a few minutes ago, when I stubbed my toe]

"Welp!"

"For example...."

"Dang it!"/"Dagnabbit!"

"Not always/not necessarily, because [insert example/evidence]..." <-usually when someone makes an absolute statement

"I don't think that's correct..." <-it's a nice way of saying, you don't know your shit

"Hm..." w/ pause <- if used a lot around a person, it's usually an indication of a very, very good sign, as they've said something that I'm taking the time to consider, deeply

I don't usually use filler words, although "um" slips out, every now and then, but, I detest "like" as a filler word, but I do use "kinda like" a lot, because I often try to make a comparison, or explain something to someone given something they're already familiar with. My speech is quite measured, and, I can go into involved [long] explanations, but, if I need to collect my thoughts, I will simply pause, or actually say out loud, "lemme figure out how to explain this properly/I don't think I'm explaining this properly." I'm prone to take breaks rather than talk over myself.

It's plausible-possible-conceivable-likely.
Maybe.
It's implausible-unlikely.
You are wrong.
I don't love it.
Right on.
What are you basing your opinion on?
Just as you please.
Whatever the group wants.
Be seeing you.
I'm thinking.
You need to calm down.
I will let you know.
I'm going to be 5 min late.
I will try to remember.
I'm working on it.

Hmmm for a talkative guy, I sure have a lot of short catch phrases.
