"Hold my beer and watch this!" is another big favorite, although I don't drink beer. It still gets the point across. Reply #86. Dec 22 17, 7:26 PM |

Krabbit's post reminded me of something my mother would say. I could be a cheeky child and when she was giving me advice I would sometimes say "You've told me that before" . She would reply "Well I'm telling you behind now". Reply #87. Dec 24 17, 5:19 AM |

My parents were always telling us as children, "The reason God gave you two hands was that one is to help yourself and the other is for helping other people". This was often heard when administering Indian Rope Burns to each other (us kids) and typically following the "Idle hands are the "Devil's workshop" intro. Reply #89. Dec 26 17, 1:50 AM |
