Where have I heard this before?

So I'm playing Skyrim...moving along the main quest...Thane of Whiterun and given a housecarl to help me out. The lovely Lydia says "How can I serve you my thane?"...and I just know I have heard that before.

I've been dredging my brain for days. Not because it's terribly important, but it just bothers me. I keep playing, and she has some other dialog but says that often enough.

And it hits me. "How can I serve you?" Guy at the Cluckin' Bell in GTA San Andreas.

Different voice, but the cadence and rhythm are identical...I think the voice talent doing Lydia has played GTA, and either consciously or unconsciously recognized that line and mimicked the delivery.

Did anyone else notice this? Or anything else like it?

Since I used to live in the medieval ages, I can personally say that "How can I serve you?" was a common phrase back then.

'How may I further degrade myself, sir?'
I think it's just a coincidence.

Wait, you can go into the Cluckin' Bell in GTA V? I tried going into one of the restaurants that they show in game and couldn't go in.
