is in fact the best one liner, pout down and generally funny joke in the world, only closely followed by that's what he/she said?

Or am I a child?

I came here just to say " no,YOUR mum!"
It probably contradicts my feminist beliefs. But then again the fact that insulting your mum rather than your dad just shows that dad's are not held in such high regard derails lighthearted thread

Whisperingeye1 · 07/01/2016 18:53

There is no situation when this is not hilarious. fact

pictish · 07/01/2016 18:54

The Scots version is, "Aye...yer maw." and I love it! So agreed.

munkisocks · 07/01/2016 18:56

No, here we use "your face!" Don't know why...

SoupDragon · 07/01/2016 18:57

I can think of plenty of occasions when it isn't hilarious. fact.

ssd · 07/01/2016 18:57

We use "so's your face" after watching Scrubs, the less it makes sense, the better it is. Grin

FlatOnTheHill · 07/01/2016 19:01

I dont get it either Confused

TimeToMuskUp · 07/01/2016 19:01

Oodle We use "So's your face" all the time! I genuinely didn't think there were any other families daft enough to adopt it. I'm chuffed!

Figwin · 07/01/2016 19:01

My DH and I "your mum" constantly. If we hear something on TV it's sometimes a race to say it such as "your mum has a healthy badger" watching spring watch or "your mum like uses the back door" watch a crime drama. They get much more obscure than that but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

Figwin · 07/01/2016 19:02

And so's your face!

"Your face is a..."

Titsalinabumsquash · 07/01/2016 19:03

YANBU, it's hilarious.

SpoonfulOfJam · 07/01/2016 19:04

I overheard the end of a conversation between 2 lovely children I was teaching. One said "your mom". I told her not to be so rude, she replied "I was just asking who's taking us to scouts tonight".

ssd · 07/01/2016 19:04

ditavonteesed · 07/01/2016 19:05

All I can hear now is Newman and baddiel and their "you see that coat? That's your mum that is"

tethersend · 07/01/2016 19:10

From the best supply lesson I ever taught:

"Your mum I'm putting a box round it"

MistressMerryWeather · 07/01/2016 19:11

It's 'Yer Ma' here in Belfast.

As in 'Yer ma's yer da and yer da's a tree'

KaraokeQueenOfTheNorth · 07/01/2016 19:12

"This TV programme is rubbish"
"Your face is rubbish"
"Your mum is rubbish"

"that sock looks like a a dead snake"
"YOur face looks likes a dead snake"
"Your mum looks like a dead snake"

"That fridge stinks"
"Your mum stinks"

Just a few of the mature adult conversations DH and I have had today Grin

LonnyVonnyWilsonFrickett · 07/01/2016 19:13

Smell yer maw. Best put down ever. End of. Fact. True.

PinkSquash · 07/01/2016 19:14

YANBU. It's always a giggle. Grin

ditavonteesed · 07/01/2016 19:15

that sounds just like me and dh. Also at uni during anatomy lessons me and a couple of friends have a competition to get the best that's what he/she said, obviously subtly as we are supposed to be grown ups.
