"Drive safely"

To which I used to reply, "no mom, I was planning on driving recklessly today."

Re: Thigns your mom used to say

"Be Careful" - thanks for saying that, I planned on not being careful.

then there are a lot of ITALIAN CURSES & PHRASES that don't make any sense in English that I say now when I get mad! Chat Icon

"Bootega Di Sorda" - your sister's bottle or your sister's a whore, depending on who you ask :)
"Ba Foncule" - F-u
buortte Di Sale - burst of salt (actually this was orginally buortte di sangue - "burst of blood" but my grandparents started saying salt because it was less harsh ...)

I always say that to my kids and I hated when my Mom said that to me

Re: Things your mom used to say

I use to hate when she'd compare us to other children. "Look at those children...you don't see them hitting and fighting with each other." Ooooo that would drive me nuts.

"You chew like a cow"

Which is to say don't chew food loudly. I never thought I'd use that, but I found myself saying something like it to DH the other day! I hadn't ever even heard his chewing before, and all of a sudden it was like 20 decibels! I'm becoming my mother!

".... smells like a fart."

Which is to say something smells like a fart. You gotta love Jamaica. Chat Icon
