Maybe not quite in the same vein, but I will occasionally give a date followed by “in this, the year of our Lord”.

If we don’t talk in old english to make things funny/funnier; I truly don’t want it
Some personal favorites
“Come hither!”
“Be silent, worm!”
“Be still….”
“Do you know not what you have done?!”
“Curb your forked tongue!”
“HOLD YOUR TONGUE!!”
“You were out all night, WHORING, no doubt!”
“BY THE GODS!”
“Do the depths of your chicanery have not limits! Are you not shamed?!”

Not quite the same but I use “earnestly” on a regular basis instead of saying “literally”. Maybe it’s just my group but I’ve never been given any push back on that 🤷🏻♀️

I try to tell people, we could all benefit from making our speaking more flowery. People got so obsessed with being practical when talking, they ended up being repetitive and boring. Inexpressive. This is how we ended up with randos in dating shows talking like they’re in a meeting for work.
Use weird words! Make people look up the shit you say! Coin terms! So many people before us came up with so many different ways to say things, it’s a shame to stick to one or two easy ones.

My favorite is someone saying “leave us!” Into a crowded room and everyone else has to fuck off to give two people privacy to talk

Was watching *Andor* when a character dropped a really good one in response to someone being unnecessarily excited: calibrate your enthusiasm. I heard that line and instantly knew I was gonna have to start using it.

I do use “unhand me” in my day to day.
