That was just so common, even when I was a kid. There was

niggxx knockin

a niggxx knob on the steering wheel

Where'd you get that coat? "Stole it off a dead niggxx"

Then my dad, always his favorite curse was "Why you cotton picker!" I didn't figure that one out for years. And Jew and Polock, and Itallian, and Mexican slams as a part of everyday conversation. I'm glad those days are long gone.

My dad was the same way Spotts. Only thing is that he never meant any disrespect for anyone and we were always exposed to many races of peoples that my dad brought home from work for dinner and sometimes to spend the night.

I didn't realize that such racial terms were "offensive" till I got into junior high school. My fiance still cringes over being called a "Jew broad" now and then, even though she adores my dad. He just never thought of these terms as being offensive.

Slow as Christmas
Hey, slow like a frog walking
hoo, your feet don't fit no limb
Your so ugly you would make a frieght train back up a dirt road.

If ugly was a crime you would be on death row.

Rooster Boot Texas , population I think with all the rednecks about 600..

And you should have slapped the doctor; when you were born and told him to put you back for another couple of months.

Not that I am an oldie, but I picked up a lot from hangin around my dad the "mechanic" in the garage.

"That's as helpfull as a fu$% in the ass"

"I can use that like a hole in the head"

"rode hard and put up wet"

"better than a two dollar hoar"

Are these oldies or just dirty old mechanic lingo?

I used to work with a older guy doing hvac before I started with my dad. He had all kinds of sayings. My favorite was "Its hotter than 2 rats ****in in a wool sock".

(by the way, "You can't tell yer arse from a hole in the ground." was first said on a golf course.)

Don't eat the yellow snow.

[midhvac]

Lower than a snake's belly in a wagon rut.

Walleyed hoosier

Tighter than an ant's ass stretched over a rain barrel
