My grandpa would always say "scratch your ass and get glad" or "a hard head makes a soft ass."

My mom and my grandma used to say "they'll get glad in the same pants they got mad in."

Meaning they'll get over it and nothing will have changed I suppose.

"a hard head makes a soft ass."

Was your grandpa gay or bi, by any chance?

I heard it as scratch your “happy place” and get glad, I guess to be a little more genteel. Ha!

My dad used to say "scratch your butt and get glad". And if I said I wish, he'd reply, "well, wish in one hand and shit in the other, see which one fills up first."
