Mind Your P’s and Q’s

mind your p's and q's

a term used when you are needed a reminder when to watch your manners or mind your own business.

The “P” is for Peace and “Q” is for quite. When you are minding your own Peace and Quiet, you are not paying attention to anything else or dealing with anyone else’s situation.

Don’t pay attention to what’s going on, Just sit there and Mind Your P’s and Q’s

P's and Q's

This axiom, regardless of its origins, has been common in post-victorian Britain as an abbreviation of 'to mind your manners' or, more specifically, to say both 'please' (p's) and 'thankyou' (thank-Q).
Thus the phrase 'watch your p's and q's' has been in use to encourage people to speak politely, especially children, who remember such phrases better than just instructions.

Kid 1: You spill my pint?
Kid 2: feck off!
Mum: Oi, watch you're p's and q's!
Kid 2: Sorry. Feck off, please.

P's and Q's

Shaortening for "Pints and Quarts", which were the two main measurements for drinks. Whereas now we use pints, half pints, shots etc, there used to be Pints and Quarts.

Whehn things got rowdy, as they tend to do in pubs, you'd normally hear something like "Mind your Pints and Quarts" and a warning or some such. this was shortened to "mind your P's and Q's"

P's and Q's

A packet of M n' Ms in GTA V. Probably means something else comedy-wise that I don't know.

GTA Online player 1: Let's go buy some P's and Q's!
GTA Online player 2: Okay!
