'SPLAIN TO ME
i.e: " My ass is grass".....I used this term tonight to refer that my cat, Ted, is out...on the loose and must be brought in before DD gets home and finds out....
Another one is "ass over tea kettle". Yet another is "got my ass in a sling over that".
My mom used to refer to my oldest brother being "Pecks bad boy" (I finally had to google that one)!
What are some terms that you have grown up with and it elicits a smile or a cocked eyebrow when you use it.

This may be a derivitive of that one....
...you ask where so and so went, and some one answers, "He went to shit and the hogs ate him."

"There are two kinds of people ... people who don't and people who divide everyone into two groups" ...
G K Chesterton when making a point has been quoted many times by dividing folks into two groups, leaders and followers etc. ... Apparently he made the above quotation poking fun at himself ....

"Emilyism"
My wonderful mother would come up with sayings that baffled me for years...I hope to never run out of her "isms"
"Go bang your head against the wall....it'll feel so good when you stop"
