I've fallen, and I can't get up!

Popular catch phrase in the 1980's which was the result of a popular TV commercial for a medical emergency service that targeted the elderly.

The commercial featured a blue haired, pre-historic woman, dishoveled and lying at the foot of the stairs. She presses her emergency call button that is located on a necklace around her wrinkly old head and shouts:

"I've fallen and I can't get up!"

huband: "Bitch, where's my sandwich?"
wife: "I've fallen, and I can't get up!"
husband: "You didn't answer my goddamn question!"
wife: "I think I broke my hip."
husband: "I'll break your other freakin' hip if I don't get my sandwich now!"

get up on the wrong side of the bed

To be in a bad mood; to be grumpy or unpleasant for no apparent reason.

The phrase refers to someone being in a bad mood from the moment they wake up.

1) Stephan, you sure are irritable today - did you get up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?

2) I feel awful. I must have gotten up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. On second thought, maybe it was all that champagne I drank last night!

get up kids

One of the best bands around! Thoughtful lyrics and are not sell-outs.

I was listening to the "On a Wire" CD and said, wow I cannot wait until the next Get Up Kids CD.
