WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE EXPRESSION ??

Mottola-Buffett · Post by **Mottola-Buffett** » August 5, 2008 7:55 pm

For those of you that may not know, I am a collector of words; my latest fascination being southern expressions. As a northerner, I am forever intrigued by interesting or funny southern sayings (for those of you that have read my book, you know this to be true). I have come across a few that I absolutely love and am wondering:

What are your favorite expressions (southern or otherwise)??

These are a few of mine:

Happier than a tornado in a trailer park

You look like sheep sh$t in a shallow pond

Those two ate supper before sayin' grace

How about...
"dingier than a rubber raft"
"raining harder than a cow pis*in' on a flat rock'
"hornier than a 3 peckered billy goat"

don't know where all these saying come from, but always make me smile when i hear someone use them

"We're down like four flat tires stuck in the mud"

That was a popular one with the redneck boys in high school!

"I love me some me"
"I wouldn't p!ss on you if you were on fire"
"between me, you and the fence post"

My brother and I almost always end every conversation with "$uck me slow". Neither one of us has done it though

Three of my fathers favorite sayings were........

Jesus Christ on a God Damb crutch!

Close enough for Government work.

Tighter than a nun's c...

I am so inspired by those words of wisdom.

That reminds me of an old joke:

Preacher is walking down the sidewalk and sees a little boy with a glass

jar full of a clear liquid, he asks "What do you have in that jar young

man?" the little boy responds "Turpentine, the most powerfull liquid in the

world".

The preacher says well the most powerfull liquid in the world is holy water,

if you rub some of that on a pregnant woman's belly she will pass a baby

boy.

Little boy says "Aw, that ain't nothin', if you rub some turpentine on a cats

a$$ it will pass a train."

Sorry I was also educated in "Truck- Stop" tapes as well.

There is an old south Indian expression, "Pulling hair off of an egg."
