Weird, strange and goofy expressions
Zeb | Wednesday, May 30, 2001 - 11:16 am  "Spectacles, testicles, wallet, watch" Eh, just something my grandfather used to say when making sure he had everything before going somewhere. |
Dilligaf | Wednesday, May 30, 2001 - 11:18 am  "Crazy as a bessie bug!"  |
Zeb | Wednesday, May 30, 2001 - 12:04 pm  "Smells like teen spirit." Exactly what does teen spirit smell like? I'm not sure I want to know. |
Zeb | Wednesday, May 30, 2001 - 12:06 pm  "She's dressed up like a dogs dinner" (I'm guessing this has something to do with poor taste) |
Max | Thursday, May 31, 2001 - 08:34 pm  Here's one my boss used today. Never heard it before! "Sweatin' pickles!" I asked him if those were dill or sweet. He said Kosher dills. |
Grod | Friday, June 01, 2001 - 06:55 am  When I go for a walk I don't like dogs chasing at me from their yards. So I yell: "Go Home!" to the dog. The thing is the Dog is already at home!!!!! (I don't know why I do that) |
Jetticat | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 04:47 am  I don't know if this has been used before and if it has, sorry......my mom really comes out with some really funny ones. "*--t fire and save the matches" and just how cold is a well digger's fanny? |
Highlander | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 05:01 am  Zeb we did spectacles, testicles, wallet and keys as a way to teach kids to remember how to do the sign of the cross. |
Spygirl | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 08:23 am  I always put my name at the end of the post b/c my monitor isn't large enough to see the entire screen of posts, so I always scoot the screen over to read the text and then have to scoot back to see who posted it. So, for me, I just put my name at the end so that I might make it easier if others have the same problem I do. Here are some phrases I thought of off-hand. I'm from the south, and I'm sure there are tons of more funny ones I'm missing: "I was born at night, but not last night" "She/he's one sandwhich short of a picnic" "You're daddy ain't a glass maker" (when someone is blocking your view) "she tied one on" (got drunk) "close only counts in horsehoes and hand granades" "nervous as a wh*re in church" "get your ducks in a row" (make sure you have everything done before you go to the next step; or make sure you know what you are talking about before you speak) And EVERYTHING with carbonation is considered a COKE. "do you want a coke while I'm up? What kind?" And my grandma always asks, "did you have a BIG TIME?", wondering if we had fun. drawers = underwear; "did you put on your clean drawers?" turtle shell = trunk of a car (another grandma-ism) I'll think of more, I'm sure. What a great thread!! |
Lobster | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 09:00 am  One beer short of a sixpack! I work in a liquor store. Comes in handy sometimes. LOL And this one from my father "If bulls--- were music, you'd be a brass band!" |
Jetticat | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 09:40 am  Are you southern too? |
Lobster | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 11:23 am  No, Jetticat, I'm not southern. Born and raised in Boston. |
Moondance | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 11:30 am  Thanks Spy... that makes sence |
Spygirl | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 11:38 am  you're welcome, Moon! I thought of another funny one -- it's a line from a movie, too. "If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle" -SpyGirl |
Max | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 12:59 pm  Your elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor. If wishes were horses, then beggars would ride. In a pig's eye! (if you think something is a lie) Well I'll be a monkey's uncle! (when someone has pulled a fast one on you) |
Zeb | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 04:03 pm  Really Highlander? That's scary. |
Jetticat | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 04:17 pm  I just saw that on the movie "Keeping the Faith" with Jenna Elfman, Ben Stiller, and Edward Norton. |
Sbw | Sunday, June 03, 2001 - 09:36 pm  Spygirl/everyone else who signs their posts..I think it is great when people sign their posts. I have two computers, one has a large monitor and the other is smaller, so it is nice when I want to use the other computer. |
Whit4you | Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 03:19 pm  I have to repeat one Zeb said elsewhere (since not everyone saw it...and I think it's too funny) When your about to join into a group you don't fit into: "It's like being a germ at a red blood cell convention" |
Sparky | Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 04:46 pm  An answer when asked what you're gonna do and you know you're not gonna do nothin': "Can't dance, it's too wet to plow, and Grandma's got the motorcycle." |
Lancecrossfire | Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 04:54 pm  Or white blood cell convention? |
Whit4you | Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 05:13 pm  Oh was that it? I don't know but it sure cracked me up LOL |
