It's true; if I ever said some of the things my grandmother says, I would have either a) received "The Look" from my mom as she glared me down, knowing that once we were in private, my impending doom would await me or b) heard the infamous, "Do you want me to smack you in front of God and everyone in this ______(fill in blank)?
