"Boy, they name streets after people like you..."
-One Way or Dead End depending on the moment

"You're about as useful as a bucket under a bull"

When speaking of an injury... "That ain't no bigger than a pimple on a pi$$ ant's pri**, get back to work."

Yeah, the Old Man had all the feels, lol.

My grandpa when he was talking about a young guy that was pretty full of himself would say “ he ain’t even dry behind the ears yet.” My Mother when we came in for the noon meal when we were young kids would tell us “Wash your face you look like you have been rooting behind the steers”

I cut it twice and it's still too short

Lower than a snake belly in a wagon rut
