As a parent

I am surprised that this is not defined here yet. It is a popular phrase that parents use to make their opinions seem especially important, even when discussing matters that have absolutely nothing to do with children and parenting. This is done under the delusion that being a mother or father will automatically make their comments more respected by others.
"As a parent, I feel that the crispy M&Ms were better than the pretzel ones."
"As a parent, I think the earlier seasons of 'The Simpsons' were the best."

Eternity leave 

When some resigns or retires from a job, they are on "eternity leave". This can also refer to someone who has passed away, especially someone who worked somewhere for a long time, retired/resigned, then passed away later.
Oh I'm sorry, you didn't know that Kelly is on eternity leave? She resigned and moved to Hawaii!

With regrets I would like to inform you that my boss is officially on eternity leave. I will never see or hear them again. Ever.
