  • 'I didn't want your life story'! - It means I don't have an answer.
  • My fav's are the ones my Da uses:

    "happy as a pig in shit"

    or when you are angry "go pound sand up your ass"

    "Thick as a brick" to describe a dumb person

    "as useful as a stick of sealing wax"

    "Colder than a witches tit" :confused:

    "if you had brains, you'd be dangerous"

    "nuttier than squirrel shit"

    "hit each branch on her way down the evolution tree"

    "he/she has a face for radio"

    The ones that people seem to associate with me ...

    When someone doesn't get their way - "Well, that's how it goes in the land of Tough Shit."

    When someone convinces me of something - "I smell what you're steppin' in."
    "You're one of the few Red Sox fans I don't mind." - Newch91

    "I don't believe in damn curses. Wake up the damn Bambino and have me face him. Maybe I'll drill him in the ass." --- Pedro Martinez

    "Keep you stick on the ice" is my current favourite... Also "Useless as tits on a bull".

    My mom had seasonal swear replacements: At Christmas time she would say "Oh, Christmas tree", but that made way for "Oh, sugar bush" during maple season.... :D

    I think we in America would call that sort of thing "Giving someone shit."

    That being said, most Americans don't use the word cockamamy. :)


    so we take the piss and you give people shit...

    who said toilet humour isnt funny? :D
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    If someone asks you a question where the obvious answer is yes, like 'do you want another pint', a common response will be "Do bears shit in the woods?" or "Is the Pope Catholic", or if you're really drunk and can't remember it "Do nuns shit in the woods?"...


    when someone says to me "yeah, do bears shit in the woods!" i always and quite boringly say

    "polar bears dont"

    and they go

    "what? what was that?"

    and i say

    "polar bears dont shit in the woods... they live in a tundra... there are no trees"




    this is the reason people hit me a lot.

    she had a fanny like a wizards cuff/pelican yawning.


    he's as useless as a snooze button on a smoke alarm/chocolate fireguard/ashtray on a motorbike


    i'm tighter than a scottish nun.

    Along the same line, my dad has always said "Is a hog's ass pork"

    For stupid people i say "dumb as a box of rocks." I have a friend who says the following when speaking of someone's level of drunkedness: "Tore up as a litte (ethnic slur)'s bicycle."

    Your bulldog mouth is writing checks your butterfly ass can't cash
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
  • I never use this, but my old boss used to say it all the time, and it'd crack me up:

    "That's queerer than a 3-dollar bill!"

    Picture a trashman with a Boston accent saying that in a loud, cackling voice....freakin' hilarious.

    On this side of the pond that is "queerer than a nine bob note" (a bob is 50p)

    Oh that's made me think of another one "there's nowt as queer as folk"
