Something Clever to say when someone asks ..do that again?

hellfish · **Posted:** Mon Nov 07, 2005 4:48 pm

Just wondering what you guys tend to say. I'm looking for something kinda of clever, funny, and disarming without just saying ..."No, I can only do that once or you"

What do you use?

When I have something to follow up with, I usually say ..oh no, you have seen that one, but I'll show you something even cooler! ...I'm just looking for other ideas

There's a section here full of outs and one-liners, it's called 'Outs and One-liners'.

"I just did, that's the second time you asked that."

I usually say "no" and "let me show you another instead of the same one again."

Them: Do that again!
Not them: Why? I did it right the first time.

or

Them: Do that again!
You: Okay. That'll be five bucks. :wink:

Which one? The first or second one? My Dad came up with the first one.

As a general rule you should never repeat an effect for the same audience as they will then know what to look for the second time around. Have a routine that allows you to move on to another trick. If they ask you to repeat your closing effect you can always beg off by saying that your powers are drained until you rest up again.

Them: Wow, do that again!
You: I can't, I'm one of THEM.
Them: Them?
You: You know...THEM!
Them: Who?
You: Totaly Hidden Extreme Magic! You on NBC's new hit TV Series THEM!

Just felt like saying that, lol.

If I cant perform that again, i'll either move onto something else, or say something along the lines of "i cant, its a union thing", and then move on to something else. Or i do a trick that CAN be repeated and work just as well the second time.
