Question

Any (appropriate or meaningful) sayings/phrases in your family?

Answer 1

"if everyone else was jumping off a bridge would you?"
"only 3 more years till you turn 18 and I can kick you out"
"its the golden rule, I make the gold and the rules"
"you are as worthless as **** on a boar hog"
"you were supposed to be a girl when you were born, what a dissapointment"
"is it to late to give you up for adoption?"

Answer 2

Not approperate. But funny. My sister was about 3 and she always had to announce when she had to go to the bathroom. So she would say as loud as she could, "I have to wee wee the pot!!!" And if she didn't like you, you were the worst name she could think of, it was a black black porcupine. We still say that stuff to this day!!! One more, she was comical. If she had to go #2 really really bad, she thought of the biggest number she could at the time, 89. So she would say, "I got to go 89!!!" So you knew she had to go really bad. We still say that too.

Answer 3

If my sister is telling me about a guy, I'll ask her what he looks like, and she'll say, "He looked like a man". That means that the guy was completely boring and nondescript.

Or, if I'm out with my sister, and we see a woman with a busted, obvious weave in her hair, I'll say, "Gee, is that real??" in a really sarcastic way. That also applies to really obvious implants/contacts/designer knock-offs, etc.

Answer 4

If somebody was complaining about something of no concern to my dad, he would always look them straight in the eye and say "Sounds like a personal problem to ME."

We still say that in my family.

Also, if someone was lamenting that "so and so" was making their life miserable, dad would reply "You make your own happiness. Others cannot cause you to be unhappy unless you permit them."

We still say that, too.

Answer 5

Any remote control or games console controllers are called buttons in our house. "cold enough for walking sticks" is a great favourite of ours too. roundabouts are called starfish (?) also, when my mum was in a temper she would say "bucking fastard" it always made me laugh!!!!!
