When we couldn't find something and asked Dad if he had seen it, his response would be, "The last time I used (wore) it, I put it right back where it was." Used to drive me crazy when he said it. Now I hear myself saying it to my kids.

Kay, I think I used to hear that one when I was a kid from Grandma or Grandpa! I love that one. Not when it's being told to me, of course! :)

When my parents used to call us to the table for dinner, they'd tell us "grab it and growl!"

No, it doesn't make a lot of sense I suppose.

I ALWAYS say that sharp stick thing.

I also say, "If thats the worst mistake I make today, I will be happy!

What I tell new blackjack and craps dealers who are stressed out about learning how to deal the games:
It's not brain surgery. Nobody dies if you make a mistake.
Don't forget to breathe.
There's nothing you can mess up that I can't fix.

My dad would always say one of 2 things -

#1 One hundred years from now, no one will care and
#2 Cheer Up! It will be this way awhile and then get worse.

I also like the snapping duck stuff one too. That was a first for me.
