Oh yes...those were the days!
So in retaliation (or teen-aged rebellion), I purchased & proudly displayed Dr. Seuss' "The thinks you can think"

Yes.
It wasn't until I was teaching and got frustrated on the playground one day, that this saying drifted through my head. I thought "that doesn't make any sense at all!" I know that's not the way to talk to young ladies or men.
I try to "catch 'em when they're being GOOD!" That's the time to comment on positive behavior, I believe...

I don't know a single kid that hasn't heard that at one time or another. Right up there with "Stop the crying before I come in there and really give you something to cry about."

Yes, when I told my aunt that I was going to wear a certain t-shirt to a concert. She told me I had another thing going. I did not get to go to that concert and was grounded for two weeks.

Luckily for me, my parents don't speak English, but I've heard worse things in Spanish. LOL

Yeah, I used to get told that all the time. I never did get that "other think:" I don't think.
