What phrases did your parents/grandparents use to say?

[dearwinter219]

Mom:

"Look at me like that again and you'll die BLIND!"

"I will beat you.... till you can't sit down"

"Snatch from me again and they'll be calling you righty/lefty (oposite of which ever hand did the act+"y")

"What, you got a respiratory problem?" (That was for every angry huff and puff a kid made

)

"Fix your face before I come fix it for you" (We weren't allowed to twist our faces up if she said something we didn't like. She ain'tplay that *%$#

)

"If you were actually stupid, I wouldn't even be mad right now" (For every bad grade or dumb thing I did

)

"3 times...3 times.. 3 times I went to the hospital. All I got was you 3 coloreds..

. It's not fair

... " (Inside joke always said in jest:had something to do with her white co worker having 3 well behaved white kids

)


Man.. mom was a trip.. I can't even remember half the *%$# off hand, but the lady was a riot to me

. I miss her a lot, but in a good way I guess

I used to bathe my pancakes in syrup:
"You like a little pancakes with that syrup?"

"It ain't Christmas every day", usually after he said no to us asking for something: candy, shoes, etc.

my g-ma always says "Nobody ever died from working too hard" if she asks me about work and i complain about hours. and my dad always says "i wasraised on that" if you talk about a specific vegetable or like traditional meal in general.
