I was in a parent-teacher conference today where the mom threatened to beat her daughter "down to the black meat" if she didn't straighten up in school. WTF?!

I repeatedly got the "go get a switch off the tree in the backyard and I'll whip you with it" routine. They even followed through on quite a few occasions.

I hated picking my own switch, and if it wasn't big enough if got picked for you which sucked. I got pretty good at finding just the right one.

My mom used Charlie & The Chocolate Factory, namely the oompa loompas. She explained to me (about 5 years old at the time)that when children are bad they're sent to California where the Oompa Loompas live. And every day the bad children are fed to the Oompa Loompas for their dinner. I still hate those little bastards almost 40 years later.

My mom (grandmother) got smart really quick. When i messed up, she sent by brother to get he hickory. When he messed up, she sent me to get it. That way she knew anytime she needed a hickory, we'd always pick out a prime one for her. And she even kept a mason jar with water in it to store her switches. She could keep them limber for like a week.

Here's one I used last night.

I will take everything from you that I paid for. phone, tv, car, bed, etc. Oh, and that I would become your worst nightmare
And it wasn't a threat, it was a promise.

Two particular ones that come to mind

"If you don't study you'll be a trash man when you get older."

They also threatened to send me to St. John's Cathedral School in Shreveport when I was acting up in K through 8.

My buddy's dad would do this to me and my friend when we were cutting up.Wasnt really a threat but i knew when he said this he was pissed and we needed to chill out. He would walk up to us really fast. Get nose to nose with us and say "boys you do that one more time, Im gonna be all up in your eyes like onions"

Oh he was a Vietnam Vet with two purple hearts and a bronze star. So yeah. He didnt frick around.
