My dad has a saying that I've only heard him use. He uses this line mostly when behind slow drivers. I'll have to censor one of the words in it.

He's slower that smoke off of "poop".

I really don't know what it means or where he got it from, but it sure does make me laugh.

My Grandmother always said "Good Lord willin' and the creek (pronounced crick) don't rise" when someone would say see you later.

My dad used a variation of the frog hair line, but his was "finer than a frog hair split three ways"

My next door neighbor would say he's known me since I was "knee high to a grasshopper"

Grandma used to say "No monkeyshines"!!! if we were misbehaving.

Grandpa said "Hurry up and wait" to those with tickets/seats for something, but still felt the need to get there early at the front of the line.

My great Aunt used to say "Well, I'll be jiggered". :lol:

Just have to hold it by the clean end when you polish it.

That went over like a fart in church.

(I don’t go to church, but I love fart jokes)

That’s as useful as asbestos pajamas.

And there was one about soup on stick
