I love old sayings. "If it was a snake, it would've bit you!" "I told you twice the first time." So many more. This is fantastic!

[aesir]

Well, I officially feel old now.

One I'd like to suggest if it hasn't been used already. "Burning the midnight oil."

[Oceanview-dh]

I was asked “what dose the phrase mean sight for sore eyes” 😂😂😂😂

[sheldonaubut]

Of course, I knew all of them, after all I'm an "old timey' 75 years old.

Happy belated birthday to Skylar 🐾🥳
Loved this… felt “old” as used knew them all 😅
Phrases to suggest: “going to talk to a man about a dog” and “you can’t get blood from a turnip”

Bro I literally broadcast your fox news reads at wjr every day lmao so cool hearing your voice and story all these years then hearing you pop up at work

I’ve only heard “My dog is barking” from Junkrat in Overwatch, and I’m realizing it’s because he has a peg leg. It sounds much more like an innuendo that way though haha

[ROMEOslowmeo]

damn those phrases are considered old-timey? Im 26 and I've heard just about all of those commonly within the past 10 years except the three sheets one.

[zenmoonmaster]

One my dad used to use is wake up and piss the worlds on fire 😂

[jcwolves]

Man I knew all of these except the very first! Surprised that so many didn't know these. My husband affectionately calls them southernisms.

[potatopirate]

Boy, this made me feel old. I know them all. 😅

[sarahbenson]

Two old time phases that still catch people off guard. "Screwed, blued, and tattooed" and "slipperier than snot on a glass doorknob." I know what they mean, and roughly where they come from.

[DaltonHBrown]

I know what most of these mean i wouldn't think they were "old timey"😂

[maggotlife-l]

"hair of the dog that bit you"; 😊

[Impress_Me_]

Don’t break your arm, patting yourself on your back.🫶❤️🤣

[IAMTHEBIGCHUCQUITA]

Cake walk means it's Easy, Peasy!

[chromedog]

I knew the "three sheets to the wind" one, but my uncle was a sailmaker.

[violetscreaming]

I must be getting old. I knew them all except the last one

[AnnoyedSonic]

I’m only 17 and I’m genuinely surprised people didn’t know what some of these meant
