(v.) The act of incorrectly assuming that a band whose name is a person's name is the name of a member of said band. This is most common by assuming that the band Jethro Tull's front man is actually named Jethro Tull, when, in reality, his name is Ian Anderson.
It is also common with the bands Gogol Bordello, Steely Dan, and Pink Floyd.
Mike: Did you see how amazingly Gogol Bordello can play his guitar?
Jeff: Dude, quit Jethro Tulling, the guy's name is Eugene Hütz, but he is most definitely amazing!
Possibly the funniest recurring character on American Dad. Voiced by Forest Whitaker, Turlington is a detective of various employers who speaks in a very low voice and is suspicious of nearly everyone. A running gag is that he is slow to react and forgetful of trivial items, which pertain no usefulness whatsoever to his investigation, allowing suspects to get rid of any incriminating evidence. He is also seen often during a time of distress or extreme relief engaging in a sorrowful, half-sobbing dialogue with one of his dead parents. Episodes of Turlington's apearence include: Chimdale, Live and Let Fry, and Meter Made.
Turlington: Mama? If you can hear me mama? It's Daniel. I WANT THAT SANDWICH!

Jack: Really? I was at his house yesterday, and there wasn't even a scratch on his car.
Tom: Yeah, Joe is pretty good at telling stories. We don't even live close to a city.
A response to a possibly false statement that one gives when the party being responded to is certainly deluding themselves. Roughly, "If you keep saying that, you might actuallystart to believe it".
"The price of gasoline is going to go down tomorrow," quipped Sue. Joe simply responded, "You keep telling yourself that."
