"You sound like a broken record"

@ZenLioness: In my time, it was a nickel. Which reminds me of one of my faves: "Don't take any wooden nickels." Still a good'un for irritating sales clerks.

@hunkalove: Or how about "Why don't you take a picture, it'll last longer!" This was before cell phones when people would stare when they drove past your house....nowadays you wouldn't want to say it because they'll flip their cell phone out and take a photo of you.
