Dad always quoted the bean poem when we had beans for dinner.

A couple from my Dad:
Starting when I was a teenager, when I'd do something stupid, he'd look at me and shake his head and say "What the hell is wrong with you".
When I wouldn't try fix something before just going and buying a replacement part- "Are you a mechanic or just a parts changer?" Then he would show me how to fix it.
Damn I miss him!

Once my kids were old enough to go out on their own with friends I will always say as they are leaving..."Make good choices!"

Evidently if I had a brain I'd be dangerous...

It's not what I say, it's what I mean. I use that saying all the time.

Slower than molasses.
Sharp as a tack.
Skinny as a rail.

You'll be late to your own funeral.
Slicker than don't on a glass door knob.
So buck-toothed she could eat corn on the cobb through a picket fence.
Bless her heart.
