Things my mummy taught me...




RELIGION
"You better pray that will come out of the carpet."

TIME TRAVEL
"If you don't straighten up, I'm going to knock you into next week!"

LOGIC
"Because I said so, that's why."

FORESIGHT
"Make sure you wear clean underwear, in case you're in an accident."

IRONY
"Keep laughing and I'll *give* you something to CRY ABOUT!"

OSMOSIS
"Shut your mouth and eat your supper!"

STAMINA
"You'll sit there 'til those lima beans are gone!"

HYPOCRISY
"If I've told you once, I've told you a million times - don't
exaggerate!!!"

CIRCLE OF LIFE
"I brought you into this world, and I can take you out."

BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION
"Stop acting like your father!"

ENVY
"There are millions of less fortunate children in this world who don't have wonderful parents like you do!"
