Best phrase you've heard recently?

[Pumpkin Becki]

Not nettle celery a phrase, but listening to Paolo Nutini's latest CD in the car on the way home last night (I've given up on Simon Mayo), and the following line struck me as rather cool:

"It was in love I was created
And in love is how I hope I die "

YouTube - Paolo Nutini - Sunny side up - coming up easy cd version

I love it when I see anyone with bandy legs, so I can use the old "he/she couldn't stop a pig in a passage".

[mrdinkle]

mad as a box of rabbits

We say 'mad as a box of snakes'

I almost coated my work documents in coffee after reading about 'Chocolate Hostage'

What about my mother's favourite:

Tighter than an gnats ar*e

[mrdinkle]

just remembered this gem:

Fur coat and no knickers

[Flummery]

Face like a box of spanners.

This golden oldie was uttered in the office this afternoon - "If brains were dynamite, he'd not have enough to blow his nose"

[Eco-Chic]

"There's no prude like a reformed whore!"

Usually addressed to anyone who gives up or abstains from something they used to enjoy/engage in.

This golden oldie was uttered in the office this afternoon - "If brains were dynamite, he'd not have enough to blow his nose"

Or, 'One day his brain will double in size and then he'll be a half wit.'

[Glutton4...]

We say 'mad as a box of snakes'...

Round here it's 'Mad as a box of Frogs' (Hopping Mad?)

..."If brains were dynamite, he'd not have enough to blow his nose"

If his brains were dynamite, it wouldn't lift his hat!
