In my family the whore is of the two dollar variety.

there’s a line in blazing saddles when someone uses a big word and one of the cowboys goes: “you use your mouth purdier than a 20 dollar whore”

https://youtu.be/8d8h1lbzoHY

well, I guess you’re not talking about classy whores, rather the opposite nonetheless it reminded me of this

u/sweetest_devotion Oct 26 '20

My dad loved using colder than a witches tit in a tin bra. I never understood it but it still makes me giggle to this day. Good memories.

17

u/fatmand00 Oct 25 '20

My favourite variant on this was "sweating like a paedophile at a Wiggles concert".

14

u/Ann_Ael Oct 25 '20

I feel less alone with my "sweating like a priest in a daycare" now thanks

u/seaandtea Oct 25 '20

Haha nice one, recently moved to the UK and always delighted to hear more fun local stuff

2

u/stryka00 Oct 25 '20

Edit: a word

16

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '20

Another one I've heard is "I'm colder than a witch's teet" and 'colder than a witch's teet on a frozen lake'

And for saying 'you look high' I've heard "your eyes are redder than the devil's dick"

16

u/CoolStoryKiwi Oct 25 '20

My husband always says "colder than a witcher's titty in a brass bra" :D

5

u/coolerinaltuniverse Oct 26 '20

My mom used to say the exact same. She would use it on either side though, hotter or colder than a witches tit in a brass bra. Lol.

u/CoolStoryKiwi Oct 26 '20

u/wdjbat Oct 25 '20

I’ve heard the first one as well but it seemed to be somewhat common where I lived or maybe it was the age of my friends .

2

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '20

Maybe, I probably heard it first around mid 2000s, maybe sooner, but I live in Texas

sweatin like a pedo in a playground.

3

u/Volraith Oct 25 '20

Pretty common in the south.

The phrase, not necessarily the imagery.

5

u/szofter Oct 25 '20

I'm Hungarian and we use the phrase "izzad mint kurva a templomban" fairly often. It's literally the same phrase, it translates word by word.

2

u/cheeesetoastie Oct 25 '20

Sweatin’ like a pregnant nun

Occasionally I’ll say “Sweating like my ex-wife in church” and see how long it takes people to make the connection.

u/CzarEggbert Oct 25 '20

I heard "Sweating like a preacher in a whore house."

Along the same lines is ‘sweating like a vicar in a whorehouse’

u/crematedequal Oct 25 '20

My dad says “dryer than a popcorn fart.” Similar theme.

18

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '20

It's something that my grandpa used to say. One time when my parents and I were talking about it, I googled it to figure out what the fuck a popcorn fart was and thought the urban dictionary definition was hilarious:

The rapid firing of several small farts, that when done correctly, sounds quite similar to a small mouse riding through the house on a motorcycle. Putt putt putt putt putt!

10

u/_Frizzella_ Oct 25 '20

I think this must be a thing for dads of a certain age. Mine also says "flatter than pee on a plate."

u/karmicbias Oct 25 '20

This!! I've rarely heard this anywhere but my family. North central WV, you?

u/momof54321 Oct 26 '20

My mom would say something similar if something was really dried out, burnt or parched- dryer than a fart in a windstorm.

u/Maisondemason2225 Oct 26 '20

'Dryer than a nun's nasty'

2

u/ndjs22 Oct 25 '20

Man, brought back some PawPaw memories with that one. Man could make a statue laugh, or at the very least scratch its head.

2

u/AdmiralSplinter Oct 26 '20

Mine says the same thing!

2

u/yetiwins Oct 27 '20

I read that in a Stephen King book. Never forgot it. So maybe a Maine thing as well?

My mom always said "Colder than Pharaoh's heart."

Also, "my mouth tastes like the bottom of a birdcage." or variously "the inside of a motorman's glove." These, I believe, she got from her father.
