What was it? I may steal... borrow it from time to time.I am guessing you would like the expression my garndmother used to use if someone asked her to do soemthing when she was already occupied with a task:
It'll it do for getting on with
One my favorite personalized cuss is "Balzac!"When I'm frustrated, but not really pissy: "Fuzznuts!"
When someone is laying on their horn for no good reason: "Blow yer nose, you'll get more out of it!"
When a destination is close by: "It's only a hop skip and a jump away."
When it's very noisy: "It's so loud I can't hear myself think!"
For fast, crazy drivers: "They're drivin' like a bat outta hell."
A favorite of my mother's when someone really ticked her off: "Oh go suck an egg!"
And a personal favorite: "If ya wanna get somethin' done right, do it yourself."
Oh my gosh y'all I'm sorry. I can't stop.
Stick a feather up your A$$ and we'll both be tickled.
You're talking out your A$$ because your mouth knows better.
You'd worry the paint off a fence post.
...and one more for the road.... Don't let the door hit ya, where the good Lord split ya.
OK, I think I'm good now.
Hope you're feeling better.Or feeling better after having been down with a stomach bug most of the weekend.
Much better by yesterday, thanks. Fortunately, I got a fairly mild case but it still had me not quite up to speed for the entire weekend. I want a do-over--of the extra day off, not the flu!Hope you're feeling better.
...force the fluids hun....still.....can't have you dehydrating.....Much better by yesterday, thanks. Fortunately, I got a fairly mild case but it still had me not quite up to speed for the entire weekend. I want a do-over--of the extra day off, not the flu!
Ack.. you never mentioned it. (((M))) Glad you're coming right now... oh and Stephen said to say, 'yeah sure... go for it, take the rest of the month off, then work from home thereafter.'Much better by yesterday, thanks. Fortunately, I got a fairly mild case but it still had me not quite up to speed for the entire weekend. I want a do-over--of the extra day off, not the flu!
Nope.Much better by yesterday, thanks. Fortunately, I got a fairly mild case but it still had me not quite up to speed for the entire weekend. I want a do-over--of the extra day off, not the flu!
Maybe that expression is about when firefighters start a line of small fires to cause forest fires to burn out. The line of smaller fires burns up everything flammable. The forest fire has nowhere left to go.You know the expression, fight fire with fire.
The first time I heard that I thought the person who said it was saying it wrong because you fight fire with water or baking soda. Even though the person who said it, said it right, it still doesn't make sense to me.
Have you ever seen the fire department take a fire to a fire to put it out? What am I missing here?
Are they talking about gun fire? If they are they should say so and quit messing with my understanding of how things work.
Boo to being sick on a holiday. I'm glad you're feeling better though. Buck up it's nearly Friday, kind of.Much better by yesterday, thanks. Fortunately, I got a fairly mild case but it still had me not quite up to speed for the entire weekend. I want a do-over--of the extra day off, not the flu!
