Weird Sayings

[druryj]

When I was a kid, my parents and other grown up folks used to always say, among other weird sayings, "By God, I'm gonna do ------ if it harelips the Governor". I have never figured out why one would want to cause the Governor to suddenly get a dang harelip anyway. I betcha Hillary would shizz a brick though if she woke up with one. What weird sayings do you remember?

I bet my eye teeth.. Sounded like that anyway.

Those old sayings were from people that worked for a living, in the hot sun too long.

"Rub some tobacco spit on it."



I always love hearing people say, "I could care less." If you stop and think about it, what you're saying is that you have some amount of care over the subject, because if you could care less, then you must care some. Oughtta be "couldn't care less," which is a more accurate way of expressing that you have zero concern about a subject. Just always found it funny that people didn't even stop and think about or listen to what they were actually saying.

When talking about someone that has a lot of something, "He has more ______ than Carter has liver pills."

"Let me show you a trick I learned in the Navy." Even though whoever is saying it has never been in the navy.

When talking about someone being angry or being very attractive, "He was hotter than a 2 dollar pistol."

"Happier than a dead pig in the sunshine" (huh?).
"Happier than a tornado in a trailer park".

***My great uncle use to say this when I was little and playing with my cousins...we'd be throwing firecrackers at each other, throwing a tarantula on each other, jumping in the bull pen and running across it to see if the bull would chase you..........and other kid stuff.*** If he thought we'd get hurt....he'd yell;

It's gonna bite your head off!!!!!


Kicks like a mule


Heathen or back slider



My granddad use to say this A LOT when he'd bust his knuckles working with tools, the fence was down and cattle were running everywhere, the hay bailer screwed up, he'd miss hooking a fish....etc. I heard this from my granddad from the time I can first remember him to when he passed away.

I say it and now my wife uses it.

Damn it to Hell!!!



A few dirty ones....I'll omit.
