Like ones your parents would use:

"I've never seen such smart boys act so stupid" (when we would do something idiotic)

"Close that door, I'm not trying to air condition the neighboorhood"

    Don't touch. Don't touch that. I'm warning you. (Spank. Cry. Room isolation).

    Keep it up (whining or crying), and I'll give you something to cry about.

    Turn those lights off it's like Blackpool illuminations in here (anyone in the UK will understand that).
    (In the car) If you don't pack it in I'll put you out at the side of the road (I was left standing at the side of the road wondering how I was going to get home, was only there 2 mins before my mam came back but it felt like forever).
    Don't pull silly faces because if the wind changes it will stay like that (that one never made any sense).

    And the ol' "I'll give you something to cry about"

    This was my Dad's favourite too. Despite the fact he never once actually raised his hand to us this sentence was enough to silence me and my brother!
    The most frustrating for me was "because I said so "
    And yes I do now say it to my 4 yr old lol

    Mom:
    "Come here so I can slap you!" (We ran away giggling.)
    "Goodnight. I love you. Marry a rich man." (Every night. I didn't.)

    Dad:
    "Don't do that. It hurts." (When one of us had an accident)
    "What did you learn today?" (Every night at dinner. Nobody ever learned anything.)

    Mom: "Just wait 'til your dad gets home!!"
    FYI - my dad was a big push-over and never disciplined his "little girl" :)

    "you make a better door than a window" Was my dad's. AND THIS ONE HAUNTS ME TO MY DYING DAY! My grandma used to reply when I would say "I'm coming" she would say "no your not your not even breathing hard" Horrifying when I was old enough to understand

    "Daddy, there's a fly in my Kool-aid!"

    He would say "Oh, he won't eat much!" and if he farted, he'd whip around and say "Did somebody step on a frog?" I miss him.

    I'm gonna slap you so hard your teeth are gonna fall out of your mouth!

    Haha. I don't recall my mom ever having slapped me, but it sure did make me do whatever she needed me to do to keep my teeth in.

    My mom still says "I'm freezing. Go put on a sweater."
    I still say "I'm not cold"

    And "Eat all of that. Children are starving" and I say "Send it to them"

    Things haven't changed.
