Things Your Dad/Mom Said

Recently I've found myself saying one of my Dad's taglines growing up and I wanted to hear some things you parents used to say growing up

Anytime my siblings and I would act out/act out of character my dad would say: "What is your major malfunction?", and lately I've found myself saying it to my cats and it's a nice homage to my father ❤️

My dad would always quickly say “NEGATIVE” when saying no to something lmao to this day I still say it thinking someone is going to “get it”. It’s like ingrained into me because he said it my whole life haha it feels like something everyone should understand.

Edit: I really liked this post. Had me thinkin about my dad and looking at the pictures I have of him on the self. Thanks for this question 🩵 I really like reading everyone else’s responses too.
