My dad still tells me from time to time that I talk like I have a paper asshole. Nobody knows what it means
Mommy and Daddy are still sleeping, can you come back later 😱
“Life’s a bitch and so am I” – my mother
“Life’s a bitch and so is your mother” – my grandmother (on my dad’s side)
“Ask your mother” – my dad
Because I said so.
“Let’s go up the wooden hill to Bedfordshire”
“There’s not enough blue in the sky for a pair of Dutchman’s pants”
Don’t get old Sandy, It’s bad for you.
Try harder
You stop crying, or I’ll give you something to cry about!
My dad on hot, Midwestern days: “I’m sweating like a ten dollar whore at a Shriners’ convention”.
As a Serbian family, we’d have lots of their sayings tossed around the house, and many of them are ‘shit’ related for some reason.
My favourite’s “kao braca govno”, which literally translates to “like your brother’s shit”, but somehow that means ‘we have to share our things’.
when i bugged my parents they’d say “Go play in traffic”
“Here we go like a herd of wild turtles.”
“I hope you grow up and have kids just like you!”
My step mom used to say anytime we wanted something, “I dunno, why don’t ya ask the carpet fairy?” It would make me and my little siblings clean for awhile. Really weird, and makes me laugh to this day
Dont make me stop this car and reach back there!
“Peaks and Valleys, Highs and Lows, Pick your friends, not your nose!”
“If I ever find you being gay I will take you to the hospital and turn into a woman”
They’re still very homophobic
“Spiders don’t have friends”
I have a pretty serious fear of spiders. My dad would always tell me that spiders don’t have friends, so if I saw one, it’s the only one in the room.
Fun fact: Spiders do in fact have friends, and there are usually more than one in the room.
You’re a disappointment, what did we do wrong.
Haha classic mum and dad… 🙁
-“It was hotter in the Bahamas.”
– my dad, a merchant sailor
Please let me enjoy the three hours of summer, dad.
“A little hard on the Beav aren’t ya Ward?”
“nothing is a true fit unless there is a stick involved” if someone would kindly explain this. THEN PLS DO. i love the sentence but PLS tell me WTF they ment with that
“It’s not fair? Not fair is it?? Well, let me tell you, *life’s not fair*!” – my mother
