Sometimes Sayings.

Seems to be the story of my life as I get older.

I'm not as good as I once was
But I'm as good once as I always was

My Parents Taught Me:

My generation were Home Schooled even though we went to school five days a week.

My mother taught me TO APPRECIATE A JOB WELL DONE. "If you're going to kill each other, do it outside. I just finished cleaning."

My mother taught me RELIGION. "You better pray that will come out of the carpet."

My father taught me about TIME TRAVEL. "If you don't straighten up, I'm going to knock you into the middle of next week!"

My father taught me LOGIC. " Because I said so, that's why."

My mother taught me MORE LOGIC. "If you fall out of that swing and break your neck, you're not going to the store with me."

My mother taught me FORESIGHT. "Make sure you wear clean underwear, in case you're in an accident."

My father taught me IRONY. "Keep crying, and I'll give you something to cry about."

My mother taught me about the science of OSMOSIS. "Shut your mouth and eat your supper."

My mother taught me about CONTORTIONISM. "Just you look at that dirt on the back of your neck!"

My mother taught me about STAMINA. "You'll sit there until all that spinach is gone."

My mother taught me about WEATHER. "This room of yours looks as if a cyclone went through it."

My mother taught me about HYPOCRISY. "If I told you once, I've told you a million times, don't exaggerate!"

My father taught me the CIRCLE OF LIFE. "I brought you into this world, and I can take you out."

My mother taught me about BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION. "Stop acting like your father!"

My mother taught me about ENVY. "There are millions of less fortunate children in this world who don't have wonderful parents like you do."

My mother taught me about ANTICIPATION. "Just wait until we get home."

My mother taught me about RECEIVING. "You are going to get it from your father when you get home!"

My mother taught me MEDICAL SCIENCE. "If you don't stop crossing your eyes, they are going to get stuck that way."

My mother taught me ESP. "Put your sweater on; don't you think I know when you are cold?"

My father taught me HUMOUR. "When that lawn mower cuts off your toes, don't come running to me."

My mother taught me HOW TO BECOME AN ADULT. "If you don't eat your vegetables, you'll never grow up."

My mother taught me GENETICS. "You're just like your father."

My mother taught me about my ROOTS. "Shut that door behind you. Do you think you were born in a barn?"

My mother taught me WISDOM. "When you get to be my age, you'll understand.

My father taught me about JUSTICE. "One day you'll have kids, and I hope they turn out just like you!"

I can relate too all those coments, I seem to have them heard them before some were ?:whistle:

This week, our local newspaper proudly announced that our local (Government) primary school had appointed two new teachers, a Wellbeing and Inclusion Co-ordinator and a school Chaplain. I think a Government school should have nothing to do with religion and that Chaplain's duties should be left to the Clergy of whichever religion the pupil chooses, and I have no idea what a "Wellbeing and Inclusion" teacher does.

"Inclusion" or "inclusivity" is code for LGBTQi indoctrination, teaching kids that it is perfectly normal, healthy, and even commendable to choose to become a different gender than the one you were born with (in spite of the impossibility of changing your genes, and the harm that puberty blocking and hormone blocking drugs and gender reassignment surgery does). It's becoming standard fare at government schools now. And public libraries it seems...



It is political correctness on steroids, teaching that anyone disagreeing with it is homo-phobic, trans-phobic, etc, and is guilty of hate speech if they voice their opinion.

It would be like calling Swishy Volvo-phobic, and outlawing any voicing a negative opinions regarding Volvos as hate speech.

Oh no, that's taking it too far, I'm just going to pop out to the Volvo, put my bowling hat on the back parcel shelf and drive to town at a very safe seven klicks below the speed limit.

Damn negative viewpoint bastards are everywhere these days! They probably spend all their time crawling under old trucks or something equally stupid???

It is fine to put your hat on the back shelf and drive your Volvo at 7kph under the speed limit. We used to have a lot to say about people from a certain country in Europe, who kept their hat on while driving their Volvo down the centre of the road at half the speed limit. but I suspect that they have all passed away now.

One good thing about the "rainbow" community is that it will keep the population down in an increasingly overcrowded world. That movement cannot be popular in China because I see on the news that their Government is starting a campaign to get people to marry younger and have more children because their annual birth rate has dropped below ten million. It is not so long ago that they punished couples who had more than one child, with compulsory sterilisation!
