Do you remember some of the daft things said to us when we were younger ?
Like don't swallow that Chewing Gum it will wrap it self around your Heart 
There must of been hundreds of sayings like that and I wonder if anyone actually says them now |

Stala(G)mites come up from the Ground and stala(C)tites come down from the Ceiling.

aww I used to work with a wonderful welsh friend and she told me this and nobody else in the office 'got it' youve made me smile thinking about her. I finally got it right to her approval when I said 'whose boots are those shoes! She called them 'dive ins' because when you come out with such daftness someone always dived in to correct you... |

My mum used to say, "Stop that f**king swearing!" 
I come from a poor background. All the children slept in the same bedroom. If my eldest brother was in bed and one of us walked in he'd shout, "Close the light and put off the door!" He caught himself out with this a few times with this one. 
My Dad still says to this day in quite moments, "Well, there it is!" When we were younger we'd daringly reply with, "What?!" Then run for our lives before we got one hell of a 'warm ear'. |

'Give them a taste of their own medicine'
I've tried this a few times and it's surprising how many people are not chemists and have no idea how to even begin to produce their own medicine.
I always end up looking stupid and they feel bad because I've highlighted their medicinal inadequacies.
It's a nightmare!
.
Has anyone won an argument and attempted to make someone 'eat their own words' only to find the concept too abstract?
Na me neither. |
