I'll be back
Three of the seventeen words Arnold Schwarzenegger
utters in the sci-fi classic 'The Terminator'. Said in a deep and emotionless voice (in an Austrian accent) to a police officer, before the
menacing Robot returns and ploughs a car into the police station, thus gaining access to the area he was forbidden to enter.Voted to be the greatest catchphrase of all time by movie critics, and also said in
the sequels to the movie.

I'll be back in a flask

It originated from the term "
I'll be back in a flash", but with the word "flash" replaced with "
flask". It gives a double meaning now, where you can say "I'll be back soon" and also "I'll be back inside an alcohol containing vessel".

I'll get back to you on that one

A phrase often used to
indicate to you that:
1. The person has absolutely no idea what you just said.
2. You are a
complete loser and the other person just does not want to talk to you.
3. Is trying to avoid
the question.
Example:
Did you hear our
professor's ludicrous rant on the consequences of mal-formed
subprime mortgate ratings?
-Uh, I'll get back to you on that one.
Hey man, wanna go somewhere?
-I'll get back to you on that one.
Hey, where's that 10 bucks I lent you the other day?
-I'll get back to you on that one.
