Me and my sister both have long blonde hair. As teens, it used to get everywhere (mine still does!). When hoovering, our mother could be heard shrieking ‘it’s like living with a pair of bloody Afghan Hounds’! 
My most commonly used phrase is probably ‘that bloody cat’, as he’s so incredibly annoying!
What do you say in your house? I can safely say that some dad bloke will utter the words ‘it’s like the Blackpool illuminations in here’!

"Just thought of another:
Me as a teen to our parents: ‘who’s your favourite kid’?
Mum and dad: ‘we don’t have favourites, we hate you all equally’.
"
 I say to mine I don't like any of you |

A couple of my mothers favourites from when I still lived at home (so more than 40 years ago!)
‘Don’t stand there like cheese at fourpence, sit down and make yourself look less’ - still to this day I have no idea where the first part of that saying comes from.
‘He’s dead him!’ - whenever watching old tv shows and someone came on that had passed away. |

“Cheese at four pence” would have been 4d/lb, so very expensive, and likely nobody would have bought it. |
