Things You Shouldn't Say Around [Blank]

I was tagged by the lovely Linda of Are We There Yet and Sandee from Comedy + for a new meme. It's great to see some new things surfacing. This meme comes to us from Frank of Honk'n'Holl'r. Here are the rules, as he states: Rules are simply fill in the [blank] in "Foxxfyrre's: Things you shouldn't say around [Blank]", and write at least eight phrases you shouldn't say around your [blank]. To make it intersting, when you tag someone, go to their memes and add a phrase using their [blank] topic. Send your list of 5 tags back to the person that tagged you so they can follow and play with their [blank] topics also.

So, here's my attempt at filling in the blank. (I always found multiple choice to be much easier)

Things You Shouldn't Say Around (or to) Your Children:
1. Santa will come see you no matter how you act the rest of the year.
2. I don't care if you clean your room.
3. Running with a sucker in your mouth is fun, but running with scissors is so much better.
4. Of course jumping off a cliff like your friends is cool!
5. I try to avoid eating anything green!
6. I like to try to cool the neighborhood by leaving the door open, you should too.
7. Television is not only great entertainment, but good education.
8. I know you are but what am I?!

I'm glad I read this- it cheered me up after a rough day. :)

I especially love #6... My roomie is guilty of doing that.

Things you shouldn't say around (or to) your parents!

Linda said...

This is great and I believe I have rather sarcastically said a thing or two of this nature to my children at one time or another!

Another that comes to mind is -

"Leave all the lights on you want, I've own stock in the Electric Company!"
