After a meal, and pushing desert on someone; "It's wafer thin."

One my mom used on me all the time when I was a teenager and had slight pains, mostly from playing basketball or working on cars; "I hope I never get as old as you."  I now use it when the girls I coach in basketball complain about minor injuries, mostly to try to get out of running at practice.

"That's okay Rocky, you can go when your ready" usually said to one of the dogs that is lying in the way when I am trying to do something.

"So far. " meme for context.

Because to the little drama queen, EVERYTHING is the absolute end of the world, and any criticism, attempts to help, attempts to correct, or even positive surprises is met with "this is the worst day of my life!!!"

Growing up with me I have no idea how she has become personally offended by the entire world, but we're working on trying to fix that.

"How brave are you?" - Dad's prep statement that could come before either assigning one an unpleasant task, or inviting one to an adventure.  We never knew which until we answered.  I might have to crawl around under the house to find a leak or fix something, or we might be going to an airshow.

More so when I was a kid since I don't really have a family now,

"hey... did you lose my aerial photographs?"

"Nobody?  So many people... so many bullets... it's a miracle..."

And the classic:

"Excuse me while I whip this out."

"We don't have time to go to the emergency room right now" as a pause before doing any questionable act. It rubbed off on my teenagers.
