Ha! That's my favorite yet, luvs.... Now that I'm a grandmother I'll use that when the pouty lips come out.
I don't remember anything good or helpful out of my Russian grandmother's mouth. Luckily I had limited contact with her in my childhood. But my Mom had some good advice. Kids were notorious for mocking others who may have had mental or physical disabilities, sadly. Lest I join in, Mom would always say, "There, but for the Grace of God, go I..." I have never forgotten her words. She was a kind lady.
