Things Every Dad Says – Brian’s Blog

The holidays are coming and it will be time to get together with the family and create some new memories and talk about old ones before we know it. I always love sitting around and visiting with my folks. My Dad has a history of saying some crazy old sayings. He usually messes them up like, "she's cute as a drum" or "you can't have you cake and ice cream too." Every father in the world has uttered the words "you think I'm made of money" or "if your friend jumped off a cliff would you?"

Here are a few more that every Dad in the world has said at least 37 times.

"Were you raised in a barn?"
"They don't make them like they used to."
"I'll give you something to cry about."
"Eat that. There are starving children in Africa."
"You'll understand when you are older."
"I'm not sleeping, I'm just resting my eyes."
"When I was your age...."
"We got oranges for Christmas and we were grateful."
