Ok, so what's the point? Buffy coined Shoo Shooo? That Buffy will coin anything! But just so you know, I used and abused Shoo Shooo too. I've had better.

So I have no idea what's going on......but to me personally this one still sounds better.....whether correct or not.....
RESPONSE #2: Yes. I had to pick them up before she kicked my butt.
I guess because if you're speaking in the past tense it should stay in that tense....right or wrong I also won't change the way I say it.....the other way just sounds weird to the ear....

In scenario A, in order to have used "calls" I would have had to say, "I HAVE to take off before my boss calls my ass!"
In scenario B, in order to have used "checks" I would have had to say, "I have to help with their assignments before their teacher checks it."
You had to get me involved somehow, didn't you? And BTW, I would definitely use the past/present sentence there, because I completed an action in the past in order to do something that hasn't happened yet. Besides, the preposition breaks this compound sentence into two, and two clauses can be independent from each other, even have different tenses. Or whatever.
@Angelita: As if!!! Shoo shoo is a Buffy registered trademark! PJ is just stealing it from me!!! I'm suing him!!!

Anyway, say what you want to say, you've been proving your retarded point for the past God knows how long.
I shall think of a scenario as well.
The foro crew is out for lunch at that Chinese joint that takes forever.
I look at my watch and take off.
After work, I spot Colombiana and she asks, "Why'd you take off??"
I respond with either a) I had to take off before my boss called my ass to see where I was or b) I had to take off before my boss calls my ass.
