“Did you get the license plate of that truck that hit ya’?”
Context: In the subject’s teenage years, his father would repeat this expression when the subject appeared particularly disheveled or disorganized — “basically when I would just wake up looking crazy”. Apparently, his father’s uncle would say it to him, and it was passed down in the family.
Analysis: Subject described his father as the joking type — and that fits, as this type of expression is common amongst comedically inclined dads. A similar phrase is the classic “looks like a tornado passed through here” often repeated by parents upon seeing their children’s messy rooms.
