More Shit (Chapter 39):

From: rmatwater: Google “George Carlin shit”

From jona: More shit: Shit storm. When the shit hits the fan. Shit for brains. Here is a good one: Jack shit. As in you don’t know Jack Shit. Weird shit.

From upper: A few more uses of “shit”: Shit, as an unmodified noun or with generic modifiers: stuff, as in “get your shit out of my car”. Also emotional baggage and associated habits, as in “up to his usual shit” get / have your shit together: be prepared or organized physically and/or psychologically know shit from shinola: have a clue; dated.

From biiguy: How about ‘lousy mushrooms’, as in Shiitake? Shit Out of Luck - similar state to Shit Creek or Aw Shit (maybe a bit worse and often more persistent)

Parting Ways (Chapter 40)

1: From: achimvw Oki-doki artichokey.

2: From: oriontwin: Don’t forget the old punny similes(?).

Make like a tree and leaf.
Make like a gun and shoot.
Make like a baby and head out.
but to mention a few...

Of course many of these allow for massive double meanings.

SNAFU: Situation Normal; All F--ked Up.
TARFU: Things Are Really F--ked Up.
FUBAR: F--ked Up Beyond All Recognition.
