Like "Go Jump in the Lake" and "Finders Keepers",  "Fish or Cut Bait"    Ad your favorite to the list.  Some of the ones I have heard makes me wonder how they got started. Like
"By Gosh What-ca- ma- call-it"
        Your turn.  Let's see where this goes. LOL    "If the Shoe Fits"

To get you up from the table and back to work, my grandma would say, " Grab your pie and run boys. Grab your pie and run."

  If brains were dynamite, he wouldn't have power enough to blow his nose.

  Like gravy on taters, that's good.

can't dance, too wet to plow

sew buttons on beer bottles
I am still confident of this;
I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27

Busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest

That'll go over like a turd in the punch bowl

Lost as a fart in a whirlwind

6 bricks shy of a load

If ifs and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a Merry Christmas

Nuttier than squirrel turds
