How about a list of sayings or quotes you've heard?

One of my favorites which I heard my Father say a lot... "Those who want to dance, must pay the fiddler."

You don't spit into the wind
You don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger

Instead of "it sticks out like a sore thumb", my Dad says "it stands out like a crapper in the fog".

He has also has a couple more vulgar versions of that one.
