Some of my students have recently started saying "Oh, my gas range!"
I certainly didn't teach them that, and the other teachers say that they didn't either.
I don't have a TV, but I suspect that this is either an advertising slogan or a catch phrase spoken every week by a TV character.
Am I right?

Probably the show Gag Concert where they do spoofs on teaching English.

If they're under 15 then they shouldn't be watching the show.Wink

I have a few kids saying, "Young Man!" when they get excited. Can't figure out why...
