My mom and I saw this film together when I was a kid, it starred Sean Connery… “Five Days One Summer” (1982). The french dub. At one point they’re climbing (the entire film is set in the Alps iirc) and the woman asks the man “what do we do with the picks?” and the man responds “we leave 'em” and this moment has such an uncanny vibe because the decision is rather inconsequential but both lines are acted with considerable pathos. So whenever my mom or I need to express that we’re not taking something with us -whatever it is- we go “we leave 'em” in the most theatrical tone. That’s as private as jokes go, nobody even notices
