Don’t let the tail wag the dog.

As full of wind as a corn-eating horse

Go hog wild

It'd be quicker to train kudzu.

A rooster one day, a feather duster the next.

Like a two-forty trot

Shit fire and save matches

If my dog was ugly as you, I’d shave his butt and make him walk backwards.

Ready with his hat and slow with his money

He don't know shit from peach butter.

Looks like he’s been chewin’ tobacco and spittin’ in the wind.

Hotter than two rabbits screwin’ in a wool sock!

Got a face like a mile of unpaved road.

I would like to buy him for what he is worth and sell him for what he thinks he is worth.

Panting like a lizard on a hot rock

He's as country as a bowl of grits.

Smart as a tree full of owls.

He ain't sawing logs, he's clearing brush.

Who put a bee in her bonnet?

Well, slap my head and call me silly!

He went and blessed me out!
