does anybody else say "hay is for horses, cows, and sheep. too bad you're a jackass" when someone yells "hey!" at them or is that another thing my dad made up
#my dad says so many things where i'm just like oh that's normal and then i grow up and lo and behold NO ONE SAYS THAT!
#but also sometimes i assume he made it up and he didn't!!
#i assumed he made up hitch in my giddy-up and he did not (though i still hold that he uses it nonstandardly (to mean wedgie))
#i wasn't sure about 'can be. sure would!' but that seems to be a him original
#he also loooooves malaphors. he likes to pair them: e.g. wake up and smell the roses/stop and smell the coffee
#which is cute BUT. he thinks he made them up! like each of them individually but also the concept of malaphors (mixed idioms) 🙄
#though he doesn't call them that. he calls them [his name]isms (because he thinks he made them up)
#one time i was trying to figure out if a term my family uses is unique to us or not and i looked it up and got a hit on urban dictionary
#so i opened it and IMMEDIATELY COULD TELL THAT HE WROTE THE ENTRY. HE PUT OUR FAMILY WORD IN URBAN DICTIONARY.
#katymacky if you're reading this i am REELING over the knowledge that your dad also says jean-claude pennay!!!
#WHERE ARE THEY GETTING THAT FROM??? DO THEY SUBSCRIBE TO THE SAME 'DORKY DADS OF THE PNW' MAGAZINE??????
#idioms
#or something idek
#swears
#i guess???
#really struggling with how to index this lol
#fun with words
#my posts
#oh also i almost didn't use the oxford comma for once in my life because the cadence of this has a pause after 'horses'
#and then 'cows and sheep' are kind of run together
#hay is for HORSES‚ COWS and SHEEP. too bad you're a JACKASS
#i actually think in this case this maybe came from my stepmother? because i don't remember him saying it until after he met her
#but maybe that's just because she says HEY! a lot more than other people i would have seen him around?
