I love Southern-isms too!

"His brain is so small, you could put it in the butt of a gnat and it'd roll around like a bean in a boxcar"

"Time marches on......and pretty soon you discover that it's marching right across your face"

You should have heard all the nurses laugh at me when I was visiting someone in the hospital in Maine and went to the nurses station to report that her IV bag was "Dry as a bone" - We say that all the time in Texas...apparently they don't use that in Maine!

I had to interpret...

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.

Arrow Southernisms

This aren't lovely quotes, but they are funny Southernisms:

(To be used after someone's had a particularly rough night)
Your eyes look like two pi$$ holes in the sand.

Busy as a cat covering up s&*t

Dry as a popcorn fart. (As in "Man, it sure hasn't rained in a while" "Yep, it's dry as a popcorn fart.)

We had to wear a pin for an nicu show of support from a rep and it read "Meconium happens"

We call our hysterical mom's HLF's (hysterical latin females).

On the board we write A la casa- this pt is being d/c'd soon.

Next to some pt's names we sometimes draw lips on double doors (this meant the pt was kissing the OR doors-not progressing in labor and will most likely be having a c/s).
