He’s in a foggery.

You look like something the cat drug in and the dog won’t eat.

This likker is just right; if it’d been any worse, I couldn’t have drunk it; if it’d been any better, you wouldn’t have give it to me.

Sittin’ in the catbird seat

Drunk as Cooter Brown

He’s playing possum.

Held his hind leg.

Creaking doors hang the longest.

Not particularly handsome

He’d argue with a wall as long as it’d stand there and take it.

He's gotta whole head full of simple.

Busier than a one-legged man in a butt kickin' contest.

If I tell you that rooster dips snuff, you better check under his wing for the can.

He’s shorter than a mouse hole.

He wants the earth and the moon with two strands of bob wire around it – and it white washed.

Boy howdy!

A near man with a dollar

They from off.

He’s so tight you could shove a quarter up his ass and he’d grind it into a dime.

It's cold enough to freeze the balls off a pool table.

I am going to jerk a knot in your tail.
