Apart from actually quoting buffy (which I would bet a lot of money that pretty much everyone on here has done quite a bit), I sometimes find that I use words/phrases/whatever that come from buffy and just creep into my everyday speech.

I'll give you an example: I sometimes put "of the" in front of adjectives. "Not good" becomes "not of the good". Yep, it's a Buffyism.

So, dig deep, you got any Buffyisms? I'll probably think of more with a bit of time... :)

Oo Oo, me, me.
Not sure if these originated on Buffy but that's where I get them from. Like saying, I like liver? "Not so much"
Or "Jealous Much?"

Oh, I do the "much" as well... "disgusting much", sometimes I even put the "much" after Hungarian adjectives... :)
I will thinking about some more, because I'm sure I use more.

oh i have heaps, i am regularly plagiarising the humour of btvs and, to my delight, getting away with it as if I am actually funny!

i cant think of them all, mostly they're just me quoting the show in conversation.

my top ism would have to be 'very possibly', aka xander in the zeppo about what kind of car he drives.  if i have no idea something i use this phrase, with a stupid grin.

i know there are a few more... will think on it some more

I do this all the time. I used to credit the show, writter, character but just gave up. Everyone thinks it's much funnier when it's me instead of that "oh my god he's talking about that stupid show again"
