Don't eat yellow snow


A few fries short of a happy meal



My signature line.

There's a village in Texas [insert locale] missing its idiot.

"She had the charm and allure of a warthog with piles"

From an American detective story - I can't remember which. You Americans do come up with some choice phrases.

The eagle shits today (payday)

I'm so dry I could fart dust!

You'll never see it from my place. (said about work done half-assed)

Two shakes of a lambs tail. (How long it takes to do something. For instance, "I'll be there in two shakes of a lambs tail.)

Two shakes of a dead lambs tail. (Things that are not going to be done too soon.)

Does anyone know how this one goes? "_____" is, as "_____" does.



Pretty is as pretty does.


I'm guessing there are probably a lot of things that would easily fill in the blanks. I had always heard it as, "Stupid is as stupid does."

Call a spade a spade.

A rose by any other name is still a rose.

The weight of the world on his shoulders.

Don't throw the baby out with the bath water.

Tapping the dew from the lily. (women peeing)

Hung like a horse.

cordeliasub -> RE: Euphemisms (1/22/2013 3:57:26 PM)

Dumber than a bag of rocks (or box of hair as my friend says)

Everybody who believes that stand on your head

It's so good you'll slap your Mama



needlesandpins -> RE: Euphemisms (1/22/2013 3:58:31 PM)

you couldn't fight your way out of a paper bag.

TwoHeartsBeatOne -> RE: Euphemisms (1/22/2013 7:55:21 PM)

Don't count your chickens before the eggs hatch.

Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

Here's your hat; what's your hurry?

Money is the root of all evil. (I seriously disagree with this one!)



TwoHeartsBeatOne -> RE: Euphemisms (1/22/2013 7:58:09 PM)

Don't get your panties in a twist.

A penny saved is a penny earned.

Nuttier than a fruitcake.

All is fair in love and war.

Pithy language in thrillers is a whole other thread, though, probably.

It takes two to tango.

Stubborn as a mule.

Enough to gag a goat! (to those who use too much perfume/cologne)

Less is more.

As cozy as two peas in a pod.



Moonhead -> RE: Euphemisms (1/24/2013 4:42:47 AM)

As cunning as a fox that used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on and is now working for the U.N. at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning?



TwoHeartsBeatOne -> RE: Euphemisms (2/2/2013 3:16:08 AM)

You lie like a rug!

One light bulb short of a full socket.

The cream always rises to the top.

Monkey see; monkey do.

I caught crap for having this on a sign in my lab way back when.

"Doing a good job around here is like pissing in your wetsuit. You get a nice warm feeling all over but noone else notices"



Oooh, that reminds me of one of my favorites. (Thank you, Judge Judy.)

"Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining."

And a Danish saying which I've found very applicable to today's politics: "Pissing in your pants only warms you for a little while."



leonine -> RE: Euphemisms (2/2/2013 3:23:46 AM)

I also like to have characters in my books use kink-oriented versions.

"There's more than one way to shave a pussy."

(To a question expecting the answer Yes): "Is a Master dominant? Do slaves scream in the dungeon?"

Or in the same vein among Pagans: "Is Gardner Wiccan? Do witches dance in the woods?"

My late wife used to say "You lie like a cheap rug - very badly."

I've also heard "He's lying like a flatfish."

Of course I've also heard "The scum always rises to the top."

Hmmm... Most of the replies here so far aren't really euphemisms, but they're cool none the less.

Here's one... (A euphemism for female masturbation) " to play the lady ukulele"
