I had a coach growing up who was not one to encourage his players. He was a bit of a yeller and always came down hard on kids, and those most you'd get is a begrudging "Not Bad" if you happen to do something well.. I think it was just before high school, but one of his favorite turn of phrase's when you did something good or successfully demonstrated a technique or play was "Way to go X, you might be the fastest retard at the special Olympics" delivered in a very deadpan manner with a southern-drawl. I've used "Like a fat kid loves/needs cake" since I was a kid and I have no idea where I picked it up from. Something like "I love you the way a fat kid loves cake" or " I need a drink like a fat kid needs cake". I think it may have been 50 cents - 21 questions. A recent one i've been hearing is something "goes down easier than a fat kid on a see-saw" which i've heard to describe various women and liquor which i find quite LOL worthy. Anyway do you have any fun or interesting sayings or expressions? Regional discussion encouraged.... I heard a guy from jersey describe women as "Bittys" which i thought was weird....like how you'd use chicks or something.

That joke was as painfully unfunny as several subforums on a dead gay comedy website.

My grandfather had an assortment of euphemisms. "Hotter than a popcorn fart." "Running your mouth like a duck in huckleberry season." "Get inside. Its gonna rain like piss out of a boot." I have no idea how he came up with the last one.  grandpa.

My mom's favorite saying is "like white on rice and ugly on a gorilla". My grandma (RIP as of this January  ) would say "A bushel and a peck" when talking about how much she loves me.

Big Beef City posted:I love you - a bushel and a peck, a bushel and a peck, a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck! Hah, that's pretty interesting. She was born in '28 so a song from that time sticking in her head that long makes sense. She even still said it a decade into battling dementia, right up to when she passed on. Crazy how the mind works. Another one from my mom is "romance without finance has no chance", relating to how money stresses can tear apart a relationship. The closest song I can find to that is a Temptations song from the 70s, and she's a black woman in her 60s so that makes sense too... Oh gently caress does that mean our generation is going to be quoting platitudes from Britney Spears songs when we're old?

I had a racist neighbor that said "I'm sweating harder than a friend of the family at an election" when it was hot outside. I was giddy when one of his daughters had a mixed race baby.

"Horse feathers!" for when I can't say "Bullshit!" "Go stick your ear in the ocean." for when I can't say "Go gently caress yourself." "How now brown cow." for when I finally accomplish a task I have been failing at for seven minutes. Even better if the source of the frustration is an inanimate object that I can now scream at.
