I tell my kids to date their work then remind them it doesn't mean taking your work book out for dinner and a movie.

Got a few laughs.

Back to the restaurant and steak scenario - whenever I go out for dinner with my daughter (15) and at the end of the meal the waitress comes up and says..... "How'd you find your steak"?
I answer back " I just pushed the chips aside and there it was"!! This always gets a confused frown from the waitress and a massive eye roll from the daughter and me laughing hilariously at my own joke!! Ahhh its good to be a Dad!!

Usually gets a laugh from young ones.

This is sort of a Dadism. When I was much younger I asked my father what he got the medals for (WW2 medals). His reply was, "Duck shooting."

One day I said "what about me"and she pulled it on me.

I stood there with a constipated look only face trying to figure out whether to Laugh, or yell "DAMMIT!"

My old man when asked how he liked his steak, he would say, "Rare" when asked how rare, he responded, "Just knock its horns off, wipe its a*s* and throw it on a plate".
I still use that one from time to time....

When someone asks me "what would you know" or something like that I reply with:

Eggs don't bounce, **** smells like **** and you can't buy generals at a general store.

I got it from someone here on AFF, got some lols out of the oldies.

The more mature members will remember when it cost a penny to use public loo's [spend a penny] and this little ditty was one my dad always trotted out.

Here I sit brokenhearted, paid a penny and only farted
Here I sit very thankfull. paid a penny and did a tankfull.

As a youngster I had some very close calls with no money in my pocket.

Not a Dadism but a Grand Dad ism

When you travel with a woman always make sure she arrives first - This was my Granddad's sex education for me. I was always stumped as to who was going to open the door for her if she arrives first.

We used to ply the old man's plate with tough old steak and peas we didn't like. 3 of us. The old boy would struggle to eat it all but that way we didn't get in trouble with "Mother".........
