I could quote Gma Phyllis all day. But it is pretty horribly racist most of the time. Bless her ignorant heart. Lol
As she drops into dementia, I am discovering my sweet, never-say-anything-bad-about-anyone Grandma has a nasty side; the other day, I described how I got a nice hardcover novel at a garage sale for a dime, read it, and then sold it to a used bookstore for a dollar.
My Grandma: "What synagogue have you been going to?"

Me: "GRANDMA, NO!"
I appreciate the wit, if not the sentiment behind it.

Yeah, I felt the same way. She came up with that real quick which doesn't happen so much now. Sometimes she doesn't even participate in conversations. I think the speed at which she delivered that little tidbit of bigotry shocked me as much as the sentiment
My dad is always saying "stick it up their ass" about one thing or another. Just ten minutes ago he was trying to end a show my mom was watching from the DVR. "I wish your mom had all this shit she records stuck up her ass. She'll record three shows at a time and not watch any of them."

Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
my best friends' father is suffering from dementia. when checking in for a recent Dr. appt, the front desk person said "well hello mr. *** , how are you today?" to which he loudly bellowed " well Im just not getting enough sex lately!!!" totally out of character but oh so funny!

My very loving Nana often fell back on this statement when yet another horrible round of bad luck stuck me... So like every other day. "Upon my soul to God, I've never met anyone touch something and turn it to shit as fast as you." Then she'd pat me 'there, there', then slip me a 20 and feed me so all in all not a bad experience.
Aren't grandmas the best? Mine was a hard core Baptist, and would always quote bible verses in response to things. Her favorite one to say to me was "First Thessalonians 5:22 tells you exactly what to do: Avoid every kind of evil." And evil to her included alcohol, cigarettes, premarital sex, rowdiness, cursing, showing too much skin, playing card games, or anything else that is fun. Why she would repeat this one to me I'll never know.
picked my niece up from her mom's house to take her to a birthday party and bootylicious came on the radio in the car. her response: "why does beyoncé make such beautiful songs? maybe i can meet her when i'm six."
My six year old nephew was helping power wash tables and chairs today. When we were done he sat down, took a long drink of juice and said "Men get exhausted after a long day of hard work. But not this man. No, not this man."
My dad had an awful medical scare and was in a semi-coma state for a few days and far from lucid. My mother (they divorced 13 years before) was in the hospital room trying to get information that us exhausted kids missed from a less than helpful doctor. The doctor asked "who, ma'am are you?" My mother snappily replied. "I'm his wife!" My father immediately yelled (his first words in days) from the bed "EX-WIFE!"
drinking on the deck with my family mom: anyone want some pie? brother: is it poontang pie? mom very loudly: POONTANG PIE? me: mom, shhh. that is like yelling out crotch pie mom (even louder): CROTCH PIE? why would I have CROTCH PIE????

Growing up, I was often told doing things, such as drinking moonshine or swing roping out over a lake from terrifying heights, would "put some hair on your chest." It's the backwoods way of saying "build character."
I never grew any hair on my chest though. But I do still say to the little ones in the family, "here, drink some black coffee. It'll put hair on your chest!"

I heard that one many a time growing up. My granddad used to eat hot peppers all the time. He tried to convince me to try them by telling me they would make my "sticker peck out".

LOL. Did it work?
I love the country old timers and their sayings.
The fun part is that he was from Wall, PA originally. He didn't move to Tennessee until he got out of the Marines.
