  1. Let me add a few more if I may -

    - trying to get them out the door = like herding cats

    - to other people's teenage girls - "Save the drama for yo' mama" (You have to do a bit of an American accent, but it's worth it.)

    - "Whatever" - (emphasize the "r" like an American). Gives them the same attitude as they give you when they really can't be bothered to listen to you.

  2. I love the 'herding cats' thing, Expatrice! BTW, if you want to take that pink vintage 'Damn right I'm good in bed...' card from my site, please do, my darling - No problemo! It's a postcard I also have tacked to my fridge!

    I shall practice some of those Americano sayings today when I am off shopping with my teen - Always a perilous journey, as he is worse than any woman when it comes to fussiness and not finding what he wants... Wish me luck!
