If you're not handsome, you'd better be handy.

In my yoot I worked around cranes quite a bit. One guy I worked with had a habit of saying "raise it down" or "lower it up".

I thought it was funny at the time, but we had to put a stop to it because of the obvious safety implications.

BTW don't try it, turns into a bad habit real easy.
Kinda like getting a song stuck in your head you can't get rid of.

another tired old joke

Had a friend in school who couldn't wait for a new rookie teacher to mention
Pi R2 (Pi r square). He would jump in with "Pie are not square, pie are round, cake are square"

It's easier to put on slippers than it is to try and carpet the whole world.

My Dad to me almost always when leaving the house. “Be good, if you can’t be good at least be careful.”
This took on a new meaning when I started dating.

You forgot, “if you can’t be careful, be prepared.”

I think that's supposed to be "Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part."

"Slicker than snot on tile."

When it's obvious what you are doing and someone asks what you're doing, my dad would say, "Making a pair of pants for a fish."
