Dadisms On Money Control

You'll realize the value of money once you start earning.

Turn off those lights. Do you think I am made of money?

What do you think I am, a bank?

If you're going to steal a car, at least make it a Cadillac

(but don't call me asking for bail.)

Dadisms On ME the Great

You didn't beat me. I let you win.

Now you listen to ME, Buster!

I told you... Now see.

I told you, keep your eye on the ball.

This will hurt me a lot more than it hurts you.

We're not lost. I'm just not sure where we are.

When I was your age, I treated MY father with respect.

As long as you live under my roof, you'll live by my rules.

I'll tell you why. Because I said so. That's why.

Do what I say, not what I do.

I'm not sleeping, I was watching that channel.

Any fights, I win!

In MY day......

When I was your age I had to walk to school in 10 feet of snow up hill both ways!

Hurt much? I didn't feel a thing.

I'm not lost, it's just over the next hill!

When I was your age....

That's not a tear, I have something in my eye.

I'm not watching television. I'm resting my eyes.

Dadisms for Boys

Big boys don't cry.

Don't worry. It's only blood.

Don't you know any normal boys?

You call that a haircut?

"Hey" is for horses.

You call that noise "music"?

Sit up straight, knucklehead!

So you think you're smart, do you?

What's so funny? Wipe that smile off your face.

If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times

You want something to do? I'll give you something to do.

What keeps those jeans of yours from falling off?

Eat it! It will grow hair on your chest!

Husbands are a sorry lot.

I love you, son!

"Son, don't ever get married. And tell that to your kids."

Dadisms on Girls

Don't give me any of your lip, young lady.

Young ladies perspire, they do not sweat.

I knew how to cook when I was your age, young lady!

You're not leaving my house dressed like that! What will other parents think?

Could those sleeves be any longer?

You look like a big lady!

Men are like buses. Just wait on the corner and another one will come along.

You can marry a rich guy just as easily as you can a poor guy.

I love you, princess!

You know you're always gonna to be Daddy's little girl...
