Subject: Offensive sayings "from" PEI -- Post TWO



Well that first list worked like a willy; in fact it was just the

cock for Dolly. My thanks (personal to follow) to the six

responders, who happily wiped out 7 of the first 26 offensive sayings

I posted as potential entries in a second dictionary of Prince Edward

Island English. Here then is Post TWO; are any of these found

OUTSIDE THE NEW ENGLAND STATES OR THE ATLANTIC PROVINCES?:



27. to drain the main vein (male urination; sounds Aussie; is it?)

28. drunk as arse

29. drunk as three / four / seven barrels of shit

30. dry as a cow's ass / crow's crotch at fly time (NOT the 'tight as

a bull's hole at fly time' idea or variants -- this one is thirst)

31. dry as a popcorn fart

32. so dry I'm farting / pissing dust

33. If my dog had a face like that, I'd shave its ass and teach it

to walk backward.

34. worse than a fart in a mitten looking for a thumb-hole (fidgety;

very like previous no. 14, still alive, 'busy as a fart in a mitt')

35. A farting horse will never tire, and a farting man is the one to

hire. (proverb: useful for selection committees)

36. Even their farts / shit had muscles.

37. flat as a cow turd in June

38. to have flyshit on the face (freckles)

39. Wouldn't that frost your balls? (shocking)

40. to be full of shit and down a quart (lying or stupid)

41. Wouldn't that give the dog's arse heartburn? (more shocking)

42. good as a pee-hole in the snow (no good)

43. Go piss up a rope and play with the steam.

44. Go piss up a stick.

45. Go pump sand up your arse.

47. hole, heart, and soul (completely)

48. horny as a two-peckered rooster

49. to have an itchy prick (irritable mood)

50. They think they're King Shit, but they're only Fart, the

messenger. (this and next are mere extensions of well-known cp)

51. They think they're King Shit from Turd Island.

52. They don't know whether to shit or wind their watch. (confused)



YOUR STOMACH HOLDING UP OK? THAT'S ALL, FOLKS, FOR POST TWO.
