Better lite a shuck. Colder than a witches tit.
Dropped him like a hot potato. Snug as a bug in a rug. She's a real cold fish. He thinks he's hot stuff. Boy did she take him for a ride! Chewed me up one side and down the other. Just fritterin away your time. Boy did she ever come out smelling like a rose! |

How about..... "he fell out of a stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down". Or if you don't want to get in on an arguement..."I don't got a dog in that race". we say catty wampus for kitty corner. As someone else said, if you live in the south they are a part of everyday conversation.

Cat's meow. The younger kids use LIKE for everyother word. When I was teaching a few years ago, it was, 'She goes, He goes' and I would say--Where are they going? Or people say, 'You know' all of the time.

My Mother use to say if you sew on Sunday you rip on Monday.
