Default Funny sayings

As I was scrolling through some of the threads, I saw a saying that made me chuckle.....Villager said " one sandwich short of a picnic" and I had to laugh. What are some other funny sayings.....

Not the brightest bulb in the pack
Brain cells close to plant life
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer

His elevator doesn't go to the top floor.
He's from the shallow end of the gene pool.
Two bricks shy of a load.

Not the brightest light on the Christmas tree.
One beer short of a six pack.
Elevator doesn't run to the top floor.
Lights are on, nobody is home.

Personality of a flea.
If you blew in her ear, she'd thank you for the refill.
When God was passing out brains, he stood in line twice for muscles (usually said of a Marine by someone in the Army).
Meaner than a junkyard dog (thank you, Jim Croce).

I had a friend who would mix those funny sayings together (without knowing!)

She'd say things like, "Not the sharpest knife on the Christmas tree"

She'd come out with things that would make you rattle your head for a moment and always make you laugh! Poor Dear! We never corrected her, it was delightful to just enjoy her as she was.

She once yelled at a gaggle of our children playing inside, "Be quiet! This isn't the ONLY house we're in!"

Stopped the kids in their tracks…. they just stood there, trying to figure that one out.

Once, at the beach, she turned to me and said, "Isn't it cool, the way the water comes right up to the shore?"

You just had to love her. I have copied her phrases, from time to time, when I am in a silly mood. It always brings back fond memories of my colorful, adorable friend!

Not playing with a full deck.

Got caught palying football, without his helmut on.

Three sheets, to the wind.

The light is on but nobody is home.

How do you get a sweet little old lady to say the F word? Get another sweet little old lady to yell "BINGO!"

This has to be severely edited...

I could eat a bowl of alphabet soup and poop a better argument!

He's nuttier than a Squirrel turd.

It's so dry, the trees are bribing the dogs.

I'm happier than an outhouse fly.
