Share Your Saying

Published

i find that a lot of people who post have a lot of great saying attached to there post for example like

"i am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how i react to it." (charles swindoll) if you want to make god laugh, tell him your plans

i find it hard to go through everyones posting to find great saying so thought i start a tread so you can post yours and this way i can have a collection of saying all in one spot .........some of them are really funny, some are deep and make you think, some are sweet ...so please post and share your sayings since some of them are really great to read...........thanks angela

i have a long distance relationship with my boyfriend he is away so i love to write to him and add a little quote or story something to make him laugh or think or smile or just feel thought of so appreciate your contributions to my attempting to getting a collection thanks

This aren't lovely quotes, but they are funny Southernisms:

(To be used after someone's had a particularly rough night)

Your eyes look like two pi$$ holes in the sand.

Busy as a cat covering up s&*t

Dry as a popcorn fart. (As in "Man, it sure hasn't rained in a while" "Yep, it's dry as a popcorn fart.)

We had to wear a pin for an nicu show of support from a rep and it read "Meconium happens"

We call our hysterical mom's HLF's (hysterical latin females).

On the board we write A la casa- this pt is being d/c'd soon.

Next to some pt's names we sometimes draw lips on double doors (this meant the pt was kissing the OR doors-not progressing in labor and will most likely be having a c/s).

~Albert Einstein

And this is pretty cute:

Nurse's Senility Prayer

Grant me the senility to forget the patients I never liked,

The good fortune to run into the patients I do like,

And the eyesight to tell the difference! :specs:

Great thread,

Here are a few of my favorite sayings:

Well, this day was a total waste of make-up!

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it left.

Therapy is expensive. Popping bubble-wrap is cheap. You choose.

Why don't you try practicing random acts of intelligence and senseless acts of self-control?

Sarcasm is just one more service I offer.

Stress is what you have when you wake up screaming and you realize you haven't gone to sleep yet.

I work 45 hours a week to be this poor.

Wait...I'm trying to imagine you with a personality.

Chaos, panic, and disorder....my work here is done.

Earth is full. Go home.
