    Couple of my favorites, if something is prevalent “you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting one”. If a girl is known as a person of loose morals you would say “having sex with her would be like throwing a hot dog down a hallway” and one I heard from my brother about something great or something you like ‘it’s the tits”

    He's dumber than a stump! (Or a box of rocks.)

    The lights are on, but nobody's home.

    If his brains were dynamite, he couldn’t blow his nose.

    He's so dumb he couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions written on the heel.
