Wife's Dad's favorite;

'I'm gonna kick your ass so far between your shoulders you're gonna have to part your hair to take a chit'

It's hard to soar with the eagles; when you work with a bunch of turkeys.

We the willing
Led by the unknowing
Are doing the impossible
For the ungrateful
We have done it for so long
With so little
That we are now qualified
To do anything
With Nothing

Great Grampa (passed down by my mom)

Your up and down like a fart on a curtain pole.

Your eyes are redder than than two eagles arses in a power dive.

My favourite is “wrong information is worse than none at all”

That one makes for some good laughs if someone in the family makes a mistake.

One from my Uncle, "poor people can't afford cheap stuff". It took a few years for me to get that.
