I'm going to drop a dime and call in sick.

I facetiously said to my ten and twelve year-old nephews, "Spare the rod and spoil the child." They had no idea what I was talking about.

"കാണം വിറ്റും ഓണം ഉണ്ണണം" "Kaanam Vittum Onam Unnanam" which means "One must have the Onam lunch even by selling one's property if need be."

This thread reminds me of a hilarious video I watched once of teenagers being asked to make a call using a phone with a rotary dial. At first they didn’t know how to dial the number. Eventually they figured out how to do it, but they didn’t realise that they had to take the receiver off the cradle and listen for the dial tone before starting to dial. They were dialing first and THEN picking up the phone, and they couldn’t understand why it wasn’t working.

"Leaded or unleaded (gasoline)?"
"Is that their latest 45 or is it a cut from an LP?"
"My record player needs to have its needle replaced."
"Did you get that candy bar for a nickel or a dime?"
"Pass the Coppertone. I really need to work on my tan before I hit the beach."
"Rats! I missed this week's episode of my favorite series. Hope I can catch the rerun."

I was never successful at that but I did manage a couple of very bad sun burns in high school, one which required me to leave school early because it was making me sick. After growing up in south Texas and basking in a lot of sun light without protection, I'm lucky I haven't been eaten up by skin cancer.
