Conversations overheard at my house

If you open your ears when you have a houseful of people, it's just amazing what you'll hear...

Make me a cup of coffee! I like my coffee the way I like my women. Cold and bitter.

Man! There will be so many of your relatives there, if you swung a cat, you'd hit one.

I was tall in my family.

You're wearing THAT?

Want some cereal? We've got Honey Bunches of Oat Crusts.

Ayatola Cola - Gives gas to everyone but Americans.

Who the ##$@!!! invited Harold? (names changed)

Darn - who was supposed to bring the cups?

Those mashed potatoes don't look like enough do they?

Is that hippy, stringy long haired kid yours?

The synopsis of the movie The Ringer.

You've got 29 people sleeping in this house tonight... Are you insane? (did I say that outloud?)

If you wear a belly shirt, your dad gets to too.

Here - put this in the Maverick. (Maverick is the generic term in our family for the garage or some other cold spot. There actually used to be a Maverick that we stuck the extra food into...)

Quit trying to look cute. No one likes you. (talking to a little white dog that was here visiting.)

What this talent show needs is more cow bell!

The first one reminds me of those horrible hot drink machines that drop the cup first, then dispense the drink. On the cocoa button it says it's hot and whipped...just like I like my men. :o

I love that one! You would probably hear that over here too! I will probably use this one in the future...

If you wear a belly shirt, your dad gets to too.
HILARIOUS!

That was so funny!!!!! I think I've heard just about all of them at my house. Oh my, what family brings out in us.

Sounds like a good time was had by all...except maybe Harold?

Ya gotta love family gatherings!

My favorite is the belly shirt comment. I bet that worked too. I will have to have Ryan use that one on Claire when the time comes. Talk about embarrassing!!!! Awesome!

Macey said...

Yes! Every party needs more cow bell! We heard the entire synopsis of House. Ugh.

Pam said...

This list cracked me up! I loved the one about Harold. I've thought something like that at a few get togethers.

You can't go wrong with more Cowbell....said in my best Christopher Walken voice....who incidentally is on Twitter....and I follow him.lol

Here, all excess food goes into the garage aka the cold storage unit. Wish my car fit into the garage....lol

I love your family!!! Did you write this down as everyone was there?
"Make me a cup of coffee! I like my coffee the way I like my women. Cold and bitter."
I will be laughing about this one all day.
