My dad used to tell me...

"If you are going to do something half assed, don't do it."

I tell myself that every time I take on a new project.

Warrens69GMC · 10-10-2021, 10:44 PM

"y'all sound like a broken record. Sayin' all the same things"

**davischevy** · 10-10-2021, 10:46 PM

My dad,

"Always do your best whether it matters or not. Then when it matters, your covered."

**davischevy** · 10-10-2021, 10:49 PM

Slower than molasses.

**3757chevy** · 10-10-2021, 11:01 PM

Slower than a seven year itch.

doesn't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of

**special-K** · 10-11-2021, 04:48 AM

Aim high and you'll never come up short on your target

**va72longhorn** · 10-11-2021, 05:18 AM

“ if it broke, bent, pissed on, or ****ed up, it aint mine”

Me to my employees.... “ you ain’t late until you get here after I do “

“ if I was any better, they’d have to split me in two”

“Sorry I’m late, I had a hard time driving this morning. I was so happy coming to work, I had to sit on both hands to keep from waving at everyone”

Me to my ex-wife “her boobs keep staring at my eyes and it’s aggravating the **** outta me!”

**va72longhorn** · 10-11-2021, 05:21 AM

Oh and my late Ex-father in law used to say.... “ I wished I had it and you had one just a little better!”

And

“ hey, you asked me if you could marry her, not the other way around!”

Your about as handy as a barbed wire condom
Your about as handy as a pocket on your underwear.

Rich84 · 10-11-2021, 03:12 PM

Somebody has to clean the fish..

Lets do something..even if it's wrong.

My Grandfather would ask me what i was doing..I would say nothing..He would say "well how do you know when your done"

She/he's so ugly that it looks like her face was on fire and they died it out with an ice pick.

**va72longhorn** · 10-11-2021, 04:18 PM

Remember ole Jerry Clower?

She was sooo ugly, if Moses would have known her, they would have been an 11th commandment!

Soooo ugly, she’d make a train take a dirt road

**lousyflyer** · 10-11-2021, 04:39 PM

"Butterface" - Everything about her is beautiful...

"Slicker than bird s#@t on a frosty tree limb" - This one came from my old boss, Richard who had two brothers named Thomas and Harold -- Tom, Dick and Harry. I kid you not.

**Grumpy old man** · 10-11-2021, 07:25 PM

Better late than pregnant !

**Clatterville trolley** · 10-11-2021, 08:58 PM

Ugly as three miles of rutted road.

Hotter than a $3 pistol.

**special-K** · 10-12-2021, 05:29 AM

Hotter than the hinges of hell

72c20customcamper · 10-12-2021, 09:22 AM

If you were any slower you'd be in reverse

Big Kev-O · 10-12-2021, 11:47 AM

"one can short of a six pack" was dads nice way of saying somebody was stupid or crazy.

I had a friend he absolutely despised, he was refereed to as "Waste of Sperm".
