So much blog material so little time...
I thought I'd share some of the humorous catch phrases of my FIL.
Background: retired military from Boston who is hard of hearing yet refuses to wear his hearing aids, so a bit aggressive and unable to regulate the volume of his voice. Picture Frank Costanza from Seinfeld.
1. I'll Jap slap the crap out of you! (spoken to anyone who steals his seat)
Alternative: I'll knock you out!
2. Gooder than good! (used to compliment a tasty meal)
3. This is your better father (to announce himself on the telephone to his kids, strange b/c they only have one father yet this implies plurality)
Alternative: This is your smarter dad.
4. Another day another dollar!
5. Keep talking Lieutenant we'll find you (spoken to anyone who passes gas)
6. God damn it Lorraine!
7. Good food! Good meat! Thank God! Let's eat! Yay God! (Pre-meal blessing)
8. Get a job! (Directed to his employed children)
9. Negatory (b/c saying "No" is just too easy)
More later!
