A saying that randomly crops up:
“Like a monkey trying to fuck a football.”
Off-color, but certainly provides an interesting visual. No idea where it came from, but I’ve only heard it come out of the mouths of people from Michigan.

I have a number of half-remembered phrases that I’ve picked up and say that don’t mean anyhing to anyone but myself. Such as…
Take a chaw on that, Billy-boy.
Alright, Doctor, impress me.
Run in to it.
Ride like the wind!
Feel free to use any of these. You’ll get extra points if you can identify their source.

I’ve heard, “more fucked up than a football bat,” but I can’t remember where I first heard it.

The one I’ve read in a few places was “as queer as a football bat,” always referring to gay men.
I can’t remember any of the books I came across that in, but it was always something that pulled me out of the narrative to just go “Huh?”

Indeed. That was the tone of the “football bat” comment, too, but it still was a WTF moment.
