Thu’s 9/24/26 Question- $320 Hy-Vee Gift Card-

Q: People were asked: What’s a stereotypical SAYING or EXPRESSION that every Dad seems to use?

(We’re looking for classic Dad sayings/expressions, not just Dad commands like “Go ask your mom” or “Don’t touch the thermostat.”)

A: “I’m not sleeping… I’m just resting my eyes.”

1. “Money doesn’t grow on trees” / “I’m not made of money.”
2. “Working hard or hardly working?”
3. “Were you born in a barn?”
4. “That ain’t goin’ nowhere.”
   (after tying/strapping something down)
5. “Guess it’s free then!”
   (when something won’t scan)
6. “They don’t make ’em like they used to.”
7. “What’s the damage?”
   (when the bill/check arrives)
8. “They’ll let anyone in here!”
   (when spotting someone you know)
9. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
