Whenever we got a minor injury like on our knee, he would tell us "I can hurt the other one so you can't tell which hurts more"
When we would go fishing, he always ended up sitting on a "barking spider"
The one I borrowed from him to great effect is "beer has water in it" whenever he was told to drink water
My grandfather gave me three options when I was young and slightly hurt. "I can hurt the other one, amputate the one that hurts, or you can go to bed."
