Question

Where did "That's what she said" come from?

Answer 1

where do any stupid little sayings come from? Some stupid college kid somewhere said it while drunk and now the whole country has adapted it into their vernacular haha. I honestly have no idea, but it is a fun thing to say.

Answer 2

While we may never know the exact origin of the phrase, one of the earliest, if not first, occurrences of "That's what she said" in popular culture can be traced back to 1992 in the SNL sketch-turned-film, Wayne's World:

    [Holding Claudia Schiffer picture]

    Garth: Hey, are you done yet? I'm getting tired of holding it.

    Wayne: Yeah, that's what she said.

Recently, the term has gained renewed popularity by usage in television shows such as King of the Hill, Family Guy, and, most prevalently, The Office.

Answer 3

Answer 4

I don't know but it's funny that you ask, because my hubby says it ALL THE TIME and I've never heard anyone else say it!

Answer 5

Wayne's World.
