“Children should be seen and not heard”

“Waste not, want not”

“It’s better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!” (My fathers way of saying things could always be worse)
 
"YOU GUTLESS WONDER!!!!"

(Middle school football coach. The team never was sure whether that was a compliment or not. Mainly we thought at that age it sounded like a name to be avoided.) :blink:

Another from the same coach:

"You haven't got the brains that God gave a GOOSE!!"

Both of these declarations were delivered at high volume usually in close proximity.

From the folks:

"If you keep doing that with your eyes they are going to STICK that way."

Lets keep this thread clean guy. Don't post if you think the profanity filter will kick in or make any attempts to bypass it.

When I was a kid I got "stop crying or I'll give you something to really cry about" quite a lot.

"She has a face like a dropped pie"
