Ugly as a stump fence.

If I had a dog that looked like that, I would shave his as* and make him walk backwards.

He who laughs last laughs longest

Drunk as a skunk

Old as the hills

Dumber then Tom's dog

Dumber then a dog in a wood box

She is as hot as a stove top.

Cute as a bug

Six of one half a dozen of the other

Be as it may

Don't take any wooden nickles

Don't let the door hit you on your way out.

You can pick your friends. You can pick your nose. But you can't pick your friend's nose.

A funny thing happened on the way to the forum.
