Today, on a conference call, someone said, "it's always darkest before the dawn."

I couldn't help myself. I said, "No it isn't. It's darkest in the middle of the night, equidistant between sunset and sunrise." That got quite a few laughs.

Shit in one hand and want in the other see which comes first. My mother used to say this to me all the time so now I hate it. Yet I find myself slipping up and saying it to my kids every once in a while.

Also obligatory

Hold the bus

It’s a good theory

sayings involving children should have their own thread...

"when i was your age..." "you kids are lucky..." "the early bird gets the worm" "if you cant say something nice.." "im going to count to three..." "this room looks like a couple of niggers live here..." "what would uncle adolf do?"

*kidding on those last two

Hahahaha, that second-last one got me, cause I almost literally said that to my kid a while ago. Went with "crackheads" instead, just to cover my ass.
