often used by snotty intellectuals like Frasier Crane from the TV show Frasier

"Oh brother."

le mot juste

A fancy word for just the right word someone is lucking for. The last t in mot and the last e in juste is not pronounced (since it is a french word (french pronunciation rules))
Example 1

Person A: At first I did not like Alex he seemed a bit unsympathetic, well not unsympatheic but not that talkative and a bit reserved, you know what I mean.

Person B: You mean introverted

Person A: precisely le mot juste

Example 2 (From Frasier Season 5 Episode 8)

Frasier: Wait! Wait, my God, it's really for the sake of our future

relationships. I mean, it just, I know that you're afraid to

hurt my feelings but I can stand a little constructive

criticism. Now, come on, please, what do you think are my

main faults?

Daphne: Well, if I had to choose, I'd say you are a bit of a fuss

budget.

Frasier: Fuss budget! Well, listen, if you don't mind the

substitution, I think maybe "demanding" is more the mot

juste.
