You can pick your nose and you can pick your friends but don’t wipe your friends on the carpet

Great Grampa (passed down by my mom)

Your up and down like a fart on a curtain pole.

Your eyes are redder than than two eagles arses in a power dive.

My favourite is “wrong information is worse than none at all”

That one makes for some good laughs if someone in the family makes a mistake.

As a teen when leaving the house my dad would always say some pleasantry like “have fun, have a good night” or “home by midnight” but ALWAYS followed by
“The life you save, may be your own”
