OK. Every Family has 'em.

Phrases that your parents used to use.

Some make sense and are quite funny.

On absent-mindedness when as a child I'd mislaid something:

My Dad wrote:
It's a good job your balls are in a bag



But some were just wierd:

On asking for a new bike:

My Mom wrote:
Bike? I'll give you bike!


On asking to go to the theatre:

My Mom wrote:
Theatre? I'll Theatre You!


So what strange, witty or wierd sayings did your family use?

My grandmother said:
Quote:
Stop opening the door, the air conditioner is on


It was a screen door

My mom is always telling me this one "Move out!"

When my Grandpa (Pop) was 94, and hardly had a clue what was going on around him, I came into the room and asked.

"Whatcha doing Pop?"

He replied, " All the ones I can, and the easy ones twice."

I nearly fell on the floor.

That was the most memorable one.

My parents were pretty much okay. I have a lot of siblings so my dad mainly just said, "Hey kid."

When I was at dating age my very first date my mom brought out a teddy bear with a tampon wrapped around its next and handed it to my date. "Put a plug her it if you feel frisky."

I was so embarrased... But I love my rents'.

Now that is what I was hoping to see.

Cheers Reinman

"Ugly as homemade sin."

"Ain't worth a cat hair."

Regarding a girl with essentially no chin, my dad commented, "That girl could eat squash through a picket fence."

My dad had dozens of sayings.

The most memorable one I heard when we were changing the spark plugs in my car. He was quite handy with older vehicles, but the new ones with all the gadgets and doo-dads and computers befuddle him. This car wasn't that bad, but it was a little out of his leauge. Plus the engine was hot from me driving it out to his place.

In the middle of a frustrating session of this, he throws his wrench down and says "Jesus Christ I thought I'd seen everything. I've seen 3 houses of ill repute, 2 sex shows involving farm animals, and an all ni[u][/u]gger rodeo, and I ain't never seen anything like this."

Sweet.
My Grand-dad wrote:
"She could eat an apple though a gate"


He also said of a bow-legged neighbour:
"He couldn't stop a pig in an alley-way"

There are so many my dad has had over the years.

I don't have the sharpest memory, so I will lay out some of the more recent ones.

"Her *** looks like two pigs struggling in a ( )sack."

We were watching the "Biggest loser," and as soon as he see's the 500 pound black guy, he says "That guy has bin cheatin'!"

I wish I could remember the better ones, however, I am sure as soon as I click "Post Message," I will think of more. And will post more.
