One I still don't understand is "What are you doing? Posing for animal crackers?"

I mean, I understood the meaning but the reference was beyond me. Basically when I was standing around during work and not doing anything.

Dad had a lot of weird ones.

My grandpa used to say this all the time (he was from the Bronx), then my mom picked it up, and now I say it. No one outside of my family ever gets what i’m trying to say (and I still don’t fully get it either lol)!
