I wouldn't speak to her if I met her in hell and she was carrying a big lump of ice.

Good Heavenly Days!

Two ax handles acrost

He is so green if you stuck him in the ground he would grow.

Not enough brains to give himself a headache!

Life is simpler when you plow around the stumps.

Colder than a stepmother’s kiss

It's been hotter'n a goat's butt in a pepper patch.

My boss rides me like a sway back mule.

So dry he had the rattles

… since Christ left Cleveland!

Doesn’t know his ass from his elbow.

Ain't I God's own fool?

Like two peas in a pod.

I'm so hungry I could eat my elbows.

Watch him; he'll slip a baby copperhead in your pocket, then ask you for a light.

Like a live oak limb

He’s three limbs up a willa.

I’m so poor that if it cost a nickle to go around the world, I couldn’t get out of sight.

It’s hotter than a fritter!

It’s two degrees hotter than the hinges of Hell.
