If I'm at work and downing my fistful of daily vitamins and pills, I'll precede it with, "Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop popping pills".
To be accurate, the actual line is, "Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit amphetamines".
"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Like that one, have also used: "Fun's over over folks, back in the bus."

Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit smoking.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drinking.

Another one I use when I'm blocking traffic and eventually someone will pull up and ask if that marked police car completely blocking the road means that they can go around it.

There are several I use but this is my favorite and I love to use it with attorneys representing vendors and service providers. Like most attorneys, they love to make their obligations vague and illusory. They also love to further water them down with stuff like: "will use commercially reasonable efforts to endeavor ...".
I always delete these terms and quote Yoda.

Never tell me the odds.

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

If a couple of people are talking and there is an awkward pause someone usually throws out "Big Gulps, huh?..... All right!.... Well, see you later."
