Book description
They're called colloquialisms, idioms, of just good old fashioned, home-grown country sayings steeped in humor and home-spun common sense. These parlances might not fit the modern hoity toity rhetoric you're used to seeing in print or hearing on TV, and that's exactly why they're more refreshing than an ice cube in July. Allan Zullo and Gene Cheek's Butter My Butt and Call Me a Biscuit offers up more than 200 vernacular verses presented in themes, such as:Admitting You're Wrong—The easiest way to eat crow is while it's still warm, 'cause the colder it gets the harder it is to swallow. Congress—Gettin' a politician to do somethin' good for our country is like tryin' to poke a cat out from under the porch with a rope. Ego—Some people are so full of themselves, you'd like to buy 'em for what they're worth and sell 'em for what they think they're worth. Teenage Boys—You kinda wish they used their heads for somethin' besides hat racks. Revenge—Two wrongs don't make a right, but they sure do make it even. Surprises—Sometimes you get so surprised by life there ain't nothin' else to say but, 'Butter my butt and call me a biscuit.'"
