'Let Me be Frank'

[Savage Kitten]

the other day at work someone came up to me and started the conversation off by saying "Let me be frank." i kinda screwed up my face and shook my head a little bewildered and said "Who the hell is Frank??"

so ok.. it's a really stupid expression.. what i wonder is there any expressions that are just as stupid that have caught you the same way this one did me??

"Surely, you're not serious?"

"My name isn't Shirley and yes, I'm serious."

 

[Lethal_beauty_27]

the only saying that bugs me is the old quote. if you love someone set them free, if they come back there yours if they dont they were never yours.....
Now why do you have to set them free in the first place.... and i say if they dont come back hunt them down and kill them......lol

 

[Aranian]

How about "WAZZZZZZZZZZZUP?" I...just...can't...stand that line! Who started that abominable contraction anyway? Wasnt it that commercial for a telephone company? :Hands over ears banging head on desk:

 

[Thumper]

You can call me Ray or you can call me Jay

Well Frank...or whatever your name is...LOL

I always hated that expression, I guess cause it never precedes anything complimentary.

Maybe we can substitute..."Let me be perfectly Lasher..."
That way ya know a whoopin is coming your way. LOL

Hmmm guess I can't think of any other weird expressions..I will later though when I am about 3 light years away from the computer...

You mean you won't have sex with me just because the wind is blowing in a certain direction...well that just....blows. Good reason to actually pay attention to the weather report though..

Easterly winds tomorrow! YES! I'm gonna get laid! hehehehe

 

[Savage Kitten]

lol

U scary me girlie hehe

actually... if you loved somebunny *wink* you would keep 'him' in a nice little gilded cage.. and every now and again you would take him out and squeeze him and love him and do naughty things to him.. hehe

ahemmmm ... looks like i got off the topic a little haha

anyway.. or sayin kinda reminds me of that one that goes... "if you can't be with the one you love, love the one your with" (or was that a song? lol) buncha bull if you ask me!!

Whew, saw the title of this thread and thought we had another confession being made.
So glad I was mistaken, but I need a cold one after that scare.

This isn't really a saying,but it's about as stupid....Phone rings:me,"HELLO"....other person,"Hi are you home."....no asshole,this is a fucking recording....That gets my ass everytime.

 

[Gil]

How about..."Go ahead and give me all you've got!" when you're already buried to the hilt.

That can be very annoying...

 

[Naked Hunny]

How about when someone wakes you up and goes "Are you awake" its like no dipshit if i was sleeping i wouldnt have answered ya!!

Parent/teacher conferences; you (the parent) are motioned to a miniature chair next to the teacher's desk. He looks through his Official Gradebook, opens the report card, hems and haws, and looks at you.

"You have a lovely child, Ms. Day," he intones, "but . . ."

I heard that damned phrase every year for 12 years!!!!!

 

[BeautyBabe]

In movies, when they aim the gun, cannon, Death Star, whatever... and say "Fire at Will!" Who the hell's Will, and what's the poor guy ever done to them?

I always liked it, when, as a young child your parents (generally mother) would ask you..."Do you want me to smack you?"

Just once...just one time, I wanted to say, "Yes please, MOM. I was just waiting on you to offer. Beat me...spank me like the bad girl I am". OK..maybe not all that. But a "Yes, please" would have been cute.

 

[CreamyLady]

But a "Yes, please" would have been cute.

I spanked my daughter just once; she turned around and laughed at me. On to Plan B . . .

My sister tried that. The whoopin' she got was epic...

 

[Handy-Andy]

Yes you can be Frank as long has i can be Ernest.

Ya ever....

...dial the phone and forget who you were calling? God I hate that...must be my age.LOL

Hey Mortto my daughter set up the answering machine a few years back with a simple inquisitive "Hello...." the pause after the hello had people thinking a real person had answered the phone. Usually after they started talking, the rest of the recording chimed in with "...Oh we're not home right now, so please leave a message" My friends hated that message...maybe that's why they don't call me anymore.

SK....bunnies don't like cages...hehehehe

Duh gee just what I always wanted! A little bunny for my very own! I will hug him and squeeze him and pet him and pat him....Loved that cartoon!

I just had to share this as I read Naked Hunny's post anout are you sleeping? I hate when I fall asleep on the couch in the living room and SOMEONE wakes me up and tells me to go to sleep?????WTF......That always got me 13 years I been putting up with that one......

 

[CreamyLady]

Are You Sleeping? Another view . . .

Airline attendants who shake you awake to sell you a drink, when you have finally fallen asleep in spite of the teething baby two rows back; the flirting couple next to you; the elderly biddies talking about their boring relatives and gallbladders; and a headache bigger than all outdoors.

I hate that. I can never get back to sleep, either!

 

[BeautyBabe]

Don't they wake you up in hospital to give you sleeping pills? Never understood the logic there!

Dad is not scary enough...

When my kids act up a bit I often ask, "Do you want a spanking?" More times than not I get, "Yeah sure!"
Ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer! They know my question is merely to get their attention and curb the behavior and they insist on smartass replies. See what you get when you are a smartass? Smartass kids! Go figure.

Unfortunately, I also tried that answer as a kid. Bad idea.

I must admit I always hate it when you ask someone a question and they say "honestly?" No dipwad, lie to me!!!

Also, my son came up with a cute comeback. He has very, very, very blue eyes, the kind people can spot a mile away. And they always ask the same question 'cause me and my wife have brown eyes (I'm sure his dad has blue....oh, i'm goin' to hell), they say "where did you get those beautiful eyes?" And one day to my surprise he started saying "they came with my head."

[Siren]

Oh Yea I hate these all ..lol lol lol

 

[sallygirl]

duh!

Someone, trying to be helpful in a search for a missing object, says "Well, where did you leave it?"

and then at the end of the search that same idiot will say: "it's always in the last place you look!"

Ummmm... yeah, I usually STOP looking once I find it.
