“That’s crookeder than a dogs d1ck!”

My dad would say that while looking down and spinning an aluminum game getter arrow. That was freshly launched into the woods.

I regularly heard that about rows I laid off in fields. 45 years later, my rows are still crooked

My first construction boss asking me to move a roof truss to the left a bit: "Move it to the left a skosh" I was nervous and asked "How long is a skosh?" "TWICE HALF A SKOSH, JUST MOVE THE DAMN THING!!!"

Pipeline boss after grinding welds on flanges and connecting one pipe to the other "Make that connection tighter than a clam with lock jaw!"

Here and there
"Work that thing harder than a rented mule!"
"Quieter than a mouse peeing on a cotton ball"

"By the time you are all adults everyone will be using metric, that's why you are learning it" Silly because it's extremely difficult for businesses to covert and mostly that most people are too stupid and lazy to covert to a vastly simpler system based on ten.
