Funny Southern phrases...

[bluetickhound16]

My boss's wife had never heard the phrase "like a cow pissing on a flat rock" before. I had to ask her if she was sure she had grown up in the South! Anybody got other "southern-isms" such as: "Nutty as a squirrel turd" or "Country as a turnip green"....
