Ain't that the berries!

As welcome as a skunk at a lawn party.

He could sell firewood in hell.

As welcome as a skunk at a lawn party

If that ain't right then grits ain't groceries.

He’s so mean a rattlesnake bit him five times and died.

Better an empty house than an unwelcomed guest.

Lay out… (of work/school)

A face like a boiled fist

It’s like swimming through peanut butter.

He thinks the sun comes up just to hear him crow.

Piss on the fire and call in the dogs.

Nobody here but us chickens.

Skin your own skunk

They from off.

Lay out of work or school

Don’t care to.

He fell ass over teakettle.

That possum's on the stump.

She’d scare a haint up a thorn tree.

As tired as a whore on nickel night.
