Speaking of produce departments, I have seem this sign only twice in three years, always posted where the bananas are for sale:

"Bananas - imported."

My boss has some very uhhh colorful sayings lol...most of which I've only heard her say. The only one I can think of right now is "They ain't got the brains God gave a bent screwdriver!" Has anyone else heard that before?

I like the saying (well, it goes something like this, can't remember it exactly) "Going to church doesn't make you a christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car."

Another one she often says (when somebody asks when something will be done) is "The second Tuesday of next week." If somebody asks if she's busy she'll say "Busier than a cat covering up s**t." Those aren't even the really "colorful" ones, but those are all I can think of right now. I'm not sure I've ever talked to anyone with as many sayings as she has, I don't know how she comes up with them all.

If it's not one thing, it's your mother.
Behind every sucessful marriage, is a surprised mother-in-law.
Don't question your wifes judgement. Look who she married.
If you haven't got anything good to say about anyone, come sit by me.

My personal favorite that I use often:
How can I miss you if you won't go away?

"Who's rattled 'is cage?"

"S/he couldn't organise a p*ss-up in a brewery/mud-bath at Glastonbury"

"No chance, mate."

"You and who's army?"

"As happy as a pig in muck!"

I am ashamed of myself.

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain."

I don't know who said it, but it's one of my fave's, and has great significance to me.

When my grandpa was still around I'd say "I have a headache", he'd say "If I had a head like that it would hurt too"

This is something my dad used to say to me (I was a smart a** quite a lot):
"I'll smack you into the middle of next week"
Sometimes I wish he would have...then I wouldn't be in trouble any more

LOL, Then you would have missed the weekends!

Oh ,

Who can forget...

"As nervous as a long tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs!"

[kitten645]

My dad used to quote Bill Cosby to my brother...
"Boy, I brought you into this world and I can take you out!"

Loved the COTC reference. My friend sometimes calls her kid Damian. LOL!

I heard this one during Monday Night Football and it makes me crazy.

Hand to hand (as in fighting and combat....) in spanish is "MANO A MANO".

I cringe when I hear people used it incorrectly.

Mano y mano is Hand and hand.
The announcer on MNF says "mano y mano, man to man"

WTF?
You can't even get one side of the equation right!

hombre a hombre -- just doesn't have the same ring to it I guess.
