You can't solve a problem by throwing money at it.

Nobody owes you a living.

Work is its own reward.

You saw no fat people during the Depression.

The Japanese took four years of my life. Why in the Hell would I buy a Japanese car?

Son, have you lost your mind?

Grab me another brew while your lousing around.

That is, while he was actually around

Dads been gone since 9/2/1996 and I miss him every day. A few of my favorites

Fat girls need loving too son.

Your friend is dumber than a box of rocks. This is while said friend was standing two feet away.

The only thing a man truly has in this world is his name and you can ruin it a lot faster than you can fix it.

I'd put my money on...never! They parted ways on bad terms. Both sides have said things that cannot be unsaid. I like both bands equally but sadly there will never be a reunion.

When I would ask my dad a question knowing the answer was almost certainly a “no,” (no curfew on prom night or some shite) his answer was often, “You want the long answer or the short answer?”

The short answer was “no” and the long answer was “hell no.”
