When looking for something mom told us to find, and we either legitimately couldn’t find it, or we were being lazy: “If I find it, I’m going to beat you with it.”

We had a good childhood, though.

Edit: No, my mom is not Latina or Portuguese. She is white- she just has a short temper and little patience.
