    My dad has a lot from growing up in a small farming community in Kansas:

    “Shakin like a dog shittin prune seeds.”

    “I gotta piss like a race horse.”

    “So dumb you couldn’t pour piss out of a boot with the instructions on the heel.”

      “Shaking like a dog shitting razor blades” is the opening of an alkaline trio song. They’re out of Chicago, so I don’t think this is local to small town Kansas. Also I’m from Texas and piss like a racehorse was fairly common.

      I once heard a coworker say: “if brains were gunpowder, they couldn’t blow their nose”.

      A friend will occasionally say “that’ll make you take back shit you never stole”, which apparently means the thing (whatever he was talking about) was good.
