Lost Words From Our Childhood!

[woodbutcher]

Well lets see.
Good golly Miss Molly.
Gee whiz shazam.
Colder than a tax collectors heart.
Crooked as a snake with the cramps.
Watch yer six.
None of your beeswax.
Good luck.Have fun.Be safe.

TILT! This one from my pinball machine days. I only remembered it because I used it just the other day when a co-worker did something genuinely stoopid. After I said this he asked me what it meant and I explained it to him. Today's youth don't even know what they missed by being born too late.

[mozeppa]

I believe the term "gyp joint" was shortened from "gypsy joint" .
i remember as a kid the row of gypsy businesses )mostly mentalists , palm readers fortune tellers and the like,,,
who would try to carnival bark you into the store front then "GYP" you out of your money....or just plain rob you.

Remember back in the day when you would ask a girl, "Would you go out with me?"

"Bang a gear" on your 4 speed Hurst shifter.

[Winger Ed.]

Uglier than a mud fence.
Dancing around like a cat on a hot tin roof.
On a road trip, "Don't make me stop this car".
Shines like a diamond on a goat's ***.
Sticks out like a sore thumb.
Meaner than a sack full of snakes.
Fighting like cats in a pillow case.
My head hurts like a woodpecker on a steel post.
Tougher than Chinese Algebra.
"Mom, he's looking at me"!
"You just wait until your father gets home".
Is the Pope Polish?
Drives with a Lead foot.
Rougher than a corn cob.
Madder than a wet hen.
Don't be square.
Last one ……… is a rotten egg.
Giving each other a 'cootie' shot.
'Come and get it, or I'll throw it to the hogs'.
'Back when I was just a little whipper snapper'.
"If I had a Nickel for every time you asked me that...……….."
"That, and a dime will buy you a cup of coffee".
"See yawl later, I'm going to be like cow flop, and hit the trail".
Follow a horse a little ways, and you'll see 'road apples'.
Out on the Hi-way, you could sometimes peel up and throw a 'sail rabbit'.
'He's too lazy to scratch a tick'.
She dropped him like a hot rock.

Finer then frog hair!

That one reminded me of an older guy I used to work with, an old "country boy". That was on he'd say occasionally.

Also, sometimes if he was asked a "what if.." question that wasn't such a good idea his reply would be "yeah, and if a frog had wings he wouldn't bump his butt on the ground all the time".

[Winger Ed.]

"yeah, and if a frog had wings he wouldn't bump his butt on the ground all the time".

And...…….."If grasshoppers had machine guns, the birds wouldn't bother them so much.

Climbing fools mountain
She’s off chasing butterflies
Watching the submarine races
