Oh, come on. We could go on here all day with things Mom & Pop said / say.
"I'mo' smack you!"
"Don't make me come in/out/up there!"
"Is there any of that vanilla ice cream left?"
"When I was a kid..."
"I always loved you the best, but don't tell your sister/brother."
and don't forget his response to "Who?"* --
"Do your feet fit branches?"
"Huh?"
"Huh hell, pay attention!"
*which we had to say often due to the "JoDavAimee" call...
