To describe these folks, I use the following similes:


dumb as a post
dumb as dirt
thick as two short planks
two clowns short of a circus
a few beers short of a six pack
old as the hills
old as Methuselah
empty as a drunkard's purse
drunk as a lord
drunk as a sailor
phony as a three-dollar bill
odd as two left shoes
ornery as a rattlesnake with hives
ornery as a water moccasin havin' his belly scrubbed with a washboard pick
ornery as a two-headed bull
ornery as a one-eyed pocket gopher in a thistle patch
ornery as a Corn Belt tornado
ornery as a pit bull sh*ttin' railroad spikes
ornery as a she-cat with a thorn in her paw
hard as picking fly sh*t out of black pepper
easy as putting a six-legged cat in a bucket of water
hard-headed as a ball-peen hammer
welcome as a skunk at a lawn party
dead as a doornail
dead as a mackerel
dead as a dodo
stale as yesterday's newspaper
useful as a back pocket in a vest
useful as a spit valve on a guitar
useless as a tit on a bull
useless as a screen door on a submarine
funny as a rubber crutch
funny as a train wreck
dark as a dungeon
dark as night
fat as a pig
stubborn as a mule (jackass)
noisy as crows
crazy as a coot
certain as death and taxes
bitter as gall
thick as thieves
nutty as a fruitcake
predictable as the sun setting

Dumb as a box of hammers,
Sharp as a bag of wet mice,
As still as a rat on acid.
