Stenglisms by Tyler on 17 Feb, 2008 01:25

I have a boss who's last name is Stengle. He's a cool guy and has some pretty funny sayings that we affectionately call "Stenglisms."
Here's a couple of them that I remember him saying:
"It's like trying to nail jello to a wall"
"It's just another arrow in our quiver" - Our company name has the word "arrow" in it.
Do any of you have any more sayings like this that you've heard recently? -

Yeah, this is a good place to share the "work related" "business related" buzz phrases.
I know I can think of more because this managing partner with the financial firm I just got hired at was big on'm.
One thing I recall is him saying, "You just gotta get out there and Carpe your Diems." -

In reading a modern day novel in our class the main character loses her virginity while under the influence of drugs. One of my students then asked, " When she became "devirginized".....needless to say it cracked the whole class up.

Sounds like a guy that I work with. One of the wittiest and sharpest that you will ever meet. One of his best is:
"Would you believe me if I told you that I am a liar"? -

If you ain't f**kin' me or signin' my paycheck, I don't care what you think. -

LOL Good one Mike. I told a variation of this to the girlfriend of a good friend of mine who was giving me a hard time and saying she didnt like my goatee(for the 3rd-4th time).
I believe I used the the phrase "squatting on it". -

When talking about being over weight my daddy always said "son, you can't drive a spike with a tack hammer"!

Saw this on a tee shirt a few years back and it stuck with me:
Pray Hard..... Life is short. -

I read on a T-Shirt:
"How should I know what I think before I hear what I say?"

I had a female customer who was real southern, and when I called her I'd ask how she was doing and she would reply "I'm busier than a bee in a tar bucket" The southern slang made it priceless!
