My mom sent me a text that nearly made me wet myself last night. Apparently my gran - who is 85 and likes to think of herself as quite refined - described my uncle as being 'as useless as tits on a bull'.


Anyone else got any favourite expressions?

I also asked someone at work today if she was 'cocking a deaf 'un' and she looked at me like I was mad.

My husband often says that something unusual is "rarer than rocking horse sh*t"

There's a collector's shop in Walsall that has that as its website name!

My hubby always says our kids "have the brains fo a rocking horse"


I quite like "If intelligence was taxed you'd be due a sizable rebate" or "If brains were dynamite you wouldn't have enough to part your hair"

One of my mum's favourites is when somebody can't make a decision.  She says they don't know whether they want a sh*t or a haircut!  I've never heard this anywhere else.

That one's hilarious!


One of my gran's friends was talking about a slutty woman once and commented that she'd 'give her arse away and sh*t through her ribs'!

What about 'sh*t or get off the pot'?
