[edit] C

[edit] Chi-wah-wah

In "The Thin White Line," Stewie joked that because of his sad demeanor, the dog Brian is a "chi-wah-wah." This witticism went unappreciated by the family. It is a combination of chihuahua and "wah-wah", an onomatopoeia for crying.

[edit] F

[edit] Fastizio

In the episode "The Thin White Line," when the rehab manager calls Peter a "degenerate," Peter thinks she has made up a word so he calls her a "fastizio" to show that he can also invent words.

[edit] G

[edit] Gatilsday

According to Lois, a new day of the week invented by NBC "so they could add another Dateline." She saw a "a two-part report on Dateline Tuesday and Dateline Gatilsday" that "kids do better when parents take an interest in their schoolwork." ("If I'm Dyin', I'm Lyin'")

[edit] Giggity

Frequent interjection used by Glenn Quagmire, often repeated several times, sometimes terminated with "goo." Often spelled "giggidy" or "giggedy." Usually used when he sees something that gets him sexually aroused.

[edit] H

[edit] Hic-a-doo-la

In "Fore Father," Quagmire takes Chris to the beach, where everyone is singing "It's a hic-a-doo-la world!" Chris asks what that means. He's told it means:

  • "that special feeling you get when you hold hands with your best gal."
  • "catching the perfect wave!"
  • "cheering real loud for the home team!"

A naval officer says hic-a-doo-la is "obeying all the rules," but all the other people disagree with him and throw him into the ocean.

An alternate spelling of Gatilsday given in a few fan transcriptions of the episode "If I'm Dyin' I'm Lyin'"

A disease Peter made up in the episode "If I'm Dyin', I'm Lyin'" in order to get the Grant-A-Dream Foundation to grant Chris's wish that Gumbel 2 Gumbel be put back on the air.
