Do you ever hear the sayings of those who raised you come into your mind or out of your mouth?

My parents will live on for several more generations by means other than just DNA. Their words, sayings, citings and opinions are with me constantly. As they were most likely heard and passed along from their own parents.
After a particularly hard day into night, I got home and crashed in front of the television. Too exhausted to sleep, I flipped on the TV. After two rounds of my cable plan, I left it on a show I never would watch in the first place. Forty-five minutes later, credits rolling along with my eyes, I heard my parents! I was as surprised as if they were standing right there! I hear myself saying: “Well that was a waste of electricity…”
Who says that? Seriously? Where did that come from?
The past. It happens all the time. “Close the door! What, are we heating up the entire northwest portion of the city?” “Turn off the lights, who pays for the electricity around here?” “No, please, stand there looking for something a little longer- I was going to defrost it tomorrow anyway!” or “What did you do? What did you just do?”
I also remember some of the smart-butt answers to those questions. (It is amazing that humans don’t eat their young, as some animals do.)
What words or phrases do you hear from the past that come out of your mouth, or run through your mind without effort? Are you using the logic that was behind them- or is it just reflex from the past?
