• Welcome to OGBoards 10.0, keep in mind that we will be making LOTS of changes to smooth out the experience here and make it as close as possible functionally to the old software, but feel free to drop suggestions or requests in the Tech Support subforum!

Commonly Used Idioms/Phrases/Sayings

Not sure, but maybe:
Costs an arm and a leg
A dime a dozen
Better late than never
Call it a day
Speak of the devil
At the drop of a hat
On a wild goose chase
 
not the:
sharpest knife in the drawer
brightest star in the sky
sharpest stick in the bunch
 

If someone is worthless, you would call them a "bladeless knife without a handle."

One that is more long winded: "Son, if brains were gasoline you wouldn't have enough to power a gnat's motorcycle around a bb."

I think we all love Grobe's "not enough lead in the pencil."

One that really annoys me, because it is used incorrectly: "it's a catch-22 situation".
