Parents Favorite Funny Sayings

"I’m not sleeping, I’m just resting my eyes” and “We’ve got food at home” were 2 of my parents favorite sayings. Buzz Feed asked for some more of those funny classics.

  • Every time we went on vacation and us kids started complaining, Dad would yell, 'We are making MEMORIES!'"
  • "English is my mom's second language, so instead of saying, 'It's my way or the highway,' my mom says, 'My way is the highway.'"
  • "'Let me show you a trick I learned in the Army...' My dad was never in the Army!"
  • "When leaving somewhere, she always said, 'We're off like a herd of turtles'"
  • "At the grocery store and looking at prices: 'What? Do they put gold in it?'"
  • "My mom: 'Are you drinking enough water?' Got a headache? Drink more water. Upset stomach? Drink water. Bad grades? You need more water. Bone protruding from your knee? Drink some water; you'll be fine."
  • "When my dad gets lost driving: 'The world's round, we'll get there eventually.'"
  • "Listen to me now and believe me later."
  • "'Go now or forever rest in pee' before any long car trip."
  • "My mom's is: 'Let's blow this popsicle stand' when wanting to leave somewhere."
  • "Whenever my sister or I would complain about doing chores, she said: 'What do you think you are, just a souvenir of a good time?' It took me YEARS to figure that one out."
  • "Me: *does something stupid. *My mom: 'Common sense, not common in everyone.'"
  • "When she gets startled she'll say, 'Heavens to Murgatroyd!' which we've come to understand was stolen from a Yogi Bear character."
  • "Anytime we asked what was for dinner, her response was, 'Sh*t with sugar on top.'"
  • "'Know what I mean, Jellybean?'
  • "'If it was a snake it would've bit you!' Anytime I was looking for something in plain sight."
  • "We've got food at home"
  • “'I have to love you. I don’t have to like you.''
  • "My mom said, 'Are your ears painted on!?' any time I wasn't listening."
