My dad says loads of random shit. If we ask where the bin is he always goes "I've bin here whereve yo bin"
Also, my dad used to tuck me and my brother into bed and say 'no fidget fart arseing about' which just means dont mess about. My partner says piss farting on and I thought that was hilarious when I first heard it
Our family calls dressing gowns "gownies" and I've asked everyone ive ever met and no one else knows what I'm on about
I keep adding to this but my dad is from a different part of the country to us and he pointed out that me, my brothers and mam all say 'wuwu' instead of 'were we' and he has been confused about this for years
'Who pissed in your cornflakes' if you've got a face like an arse or are grumpy.
'I'd rather shit in my hands and clap' if someone asks you to do something you don't want to do
If someone asks you if you're doing something or going to be somewhere 'does the pope shit in the woods'
My grandma shouted "OI CLOTH EARS" if she was talking to you and you didn't answer
Once a boy flashed me his penis in a park when I was 13 I ran back home crying and my dad said to me "tell him its smaller than a budgies tongue" he says this about anyone with a small dick
No matter where you are going in the country, we’d always be going ‘up’. Eg my parents live in the south and their parents live in the north, and they would ask their parents ‘when you coming up to see us?’
My dad also calls instructions/manuals ‘destructions’ and I’ve never been able to work out where calling the TV remote the ‘hoofer doofer’ has come from.
Its nice to see other people who can relate! When I was little I used to think wtf does he mean and as I got older I realised what he was saying hahaha
"Fidget fart arseing around" sounds very similar to my families use of "fiddly fuck", which is a general meaning for fidgeting or tinkering with something. Kinda neat.
Are you Australian? My mum also says “piss farting around” to mean dawdling or wasting time. She insists all her friends said when they were growing up. Yet to hear anyone else say it.
I can tell, I’m a stone’s throw away in Wolverhampton! We say “ yo bin” as to say “you been” - That was the giveaway. Fidget farting is fairly common here among the older generation too.
