when i was 12 my dad said i didn't do such a great job cleaning the bathroom, and next time i should use some elbow grease
from that point on i would search high and low for the elbow grease in our cabinets, but never did find it
when i finally asked him to buy some more, he of coarse had a look on his face of disbelief, and in that i was never assigned that job again
