Well, I know I have things I say a lot...as a teacher I often have to say "Zip your lips" "Sit your butt down" "Hands at your side unless you're making the quiet sign."
I also have a tendency to call all male students "sir" and all the female students "sweetie" or "sweetheart." And some of them ain't sweet! But it's my default when I don't know their names. I tend to know the names of all the really good kids and all the really bad kids by the end of a day though.
