Default funny comments people say

I heard this from a coworker this morning and it made me chuckle.


(talking about Thanksgiving)
If a Native American would have named the holiday, it would have been "Your Welcome Day".

Other funny comments you have heard or said?

Oh, THAT'S really good, Eggs!

I saw a bumper sticker on a motorcycle that read:

"I got this Harley for my wife...Good trade, eh?"

OH! and my new husband, who is a caver, pointed this out to me one time.

I asked, "Oh, you're a spelunker?"
"No, I'm a caver." he said.
"What's the difference?" I asked.
He replied curtly, "Spelunkers explore caves. Cavers rescue spelunkers."

( Geez, sorrrr- RYYY! LOL)

Southern sayings....

He’d gripe with a ham under each arm.

He couldn’t carry a tune in a bucket.

You'd could have an argument in an empty house.

New Orleans sayings.....

How y'all doing?

Times are hard in St. Bernard.

Yeah you right!

Gimme a sloppy roast beef dressed.

Built like a brick s**t house.

When that boy dances he looks like a sprayed roach.

Meet me in the quawta

My mother was quite southern and when we kids were acting up, she'd warn us, "You're breathing a scab on your nose..."

These are great!

Boutte, what the heck does "Gimme a sloppy roast beef dressed" mean? I have no idea!

Locke "Your breathing a scab on your nose" ha ha, that made me giggle out loud!

My grandma used to warn us, (she was in the deep south) "You youngin's, I's fixin to tan yer hides!" usually this was followed by "Bring me my flyflap!"
She used to swat us with her fly swatter when we did something wrong. ha ha

She also used to say, "lawd have mercy" and "heaven's to betsy" all the time. Who the heck is betsy? And she would say, "nekked as a jaybird"
(are jaybirds naked??)

Locke, what is a caver? I mean I read that they rescue spelunkers, but is that seriously what they do? That cave in Oregon that you went to, was that the one in the Willamette Valley? I went to one there years ago but can't recall the name.

A caver is a more experienced person who, in addition to other things, charts out and surveys new territory yet to be charted. Sometimes is accompied by a geologist or someone else.
I don't remember exactly where this one was, just was called The Oregon Caves, and it was more my speed, touristy, not at all like he does. But he still enjoyed it.

In my house the alarm clock was Mom, she'd go from room to room yelling "Rise and Shine".

When you made your way to the kitchen she'd say "Morning glory". My sister named the road leading to her property Morning Glory Lane.
