"Idiot"
"Shut up"
"Go away"

Alas, I cannot blame echolalia for these, DS uses them in the correct context! But I know it could be worse! (and in a few years, probably will be! LOL!)

katherine, I see we are on the same page.

To you idiot, shut up and go away

I raise you one growl. Not a phrase but definitely a verbal something I could do without.

Hi Renee,

I'll play! (Even though I don't really know how to play poker)

Growling we have too. I'll (see you? sp?) one growl and raise you "bird noises." Don't know how to describe it any other way. He keeps his mouth shut, but it's kind of like he's talking, but with his mouth shut. Usually he also grinds his teeth at the same time.

But to be fair, the other things (idiot etc.) are intentional comments on DS's part, bird noises seem like an unconscious thing, but annoying nevertheless.

Our children are certainly interesting!

This phrase is my fault because I used to use it to make him laugh. I ask him where his shoes or something is and I get " I ate it"


I hear "I'm thirsty" about 50 times a day


Oh yeah and there is the yell for me

Currently I would have to see your bird noises with "whoops" for lack of a better way to discribe it. oh and

tv line most said in this house from "Home Alone"

"How much do I owe ya. Acey says 10 percent. Too bad acey aint in charge no more...." The whole dang thing him and dave almost constantly. Oh and DH gets them started all the time. I am going to sell the 3 men in this house soon.
