    When someone describes a near accident and say "They had a near miss"... Surely if they nearly missed then they crashed ;):D

    Another one is when someone has an accident for example their car spins off the road, crashes into a ditch, car is a total wreck, driver has 2 broken arms, a broken leg and head injuries but will live and someone says... "They were lucky" :D

  • When we were kids my Dad used to hate use crying and would say "If you don't stop that I'll give you something to cry for", or if we were misbehaving, "Do you want hit"...let me think ....NO..lol

    We honestly were abused as kids...lol
    ;)I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY;)

    I was always told by my father that he would take his hand off my face. Where's the punishment in that?

    Mum used to tell me that the wind would change and my face would stay like it. At least I know what happened! lol

    i hate it when you lose something, after spending hours looking for it some smart alec will say "it's always in the last place you look, isn't it"
    well, of course it is, i stop looking when i've found it
  • Well mine is my OH keep asking me which vinyl we chose for our kitchen. We stood in the shop today and after narrowing it down to a choice of two colours chose a silvery grey colour. We had a long discussion about which one would look best and which would show the dirt more etc etc.

    He must have asked me about 8 times since which one we chose, which is worrying because he has to go into the shop to actually order and pay for it. If I had gone in by myself and chosen it, I could understand it but we chose it together. I think I had better go back to the shop with him or goodness knows what he will order.

    So in answer to the OP mine is "which colour vinyl did we choose?"

    I really hate when people - especially complete strangers - say cheer up, it might never happen.
