2. "It's the cat's pajamas."

3. I've always liked...
"Couldn't find his own ass with two hands and a hunting dog."

"Raised by wolves in the ugly forest."

Hmm, I see a canine motif here.

Will think of more later I'm sure. I was a Southerner once.

15. I just found out that I'm not going to have the day to myself after all.
One of my house mates called out sick. Even his boss thinks that he takes way too many Monday's off. He drove down to visit his Mom yesterday but he was back home early. I don't understand why he isn't feeling good enough to go to work.

If all his brains were dynamite, he couldn't blow his nose.

The engine's runnin' but ain't nobody driving.

19. The father of a friend has many
"Go piss up a rope"
"You couldn't pour piss from a boot if the diretions were written on the heel"
"Life is a bowl of fruit with one turd in it and you picked the turd"
He's actually a pleasent person but would come up with stuff that cracked us up when we were teens.

25. My old history teacher had bunches of them
"He wouldn't know x (x being anything from what not to say to a woman to the basics of Byzantine history) if he found it dead in his lunchbucket.

That's one's my favorite, but I also admire the Mr. for his use of the word "punchy."

26. Well dip my balls in sweet cream and squat me in a kitchen full of kittens

That or:

"hotter than a fresh fucked fox in a pepper patch"
"crying like a French soccer player"
"running like his feet are on fire and his ass is catching"


Or about 100 others that I can't think of at the moment. There was never a dull moment with my redneck roommate in college.
