Not quite 'right'

[Betty-Anne]

I was wondering if we could start a sort of game. I've always liked the silly sayings people sometimes use for people who aren't quite 'right' e.g. 'A sandwich short of a picnic' and I was wondering how many we could collectively come up with. I think it could be fun.

So we have one so far. Lets see how many more there are out there

[Archangel]

Like 'Not the sharpest knife in the drawer' or 'Not rowing with all their oars in the water'?

[Luke]

"His cheese has slid off his cracker"

"A stubbie short of a six pack"

"He's got the whole six pack, just missing the little plastic rings that hold it all together"

"A six pack short of a carton"

and a classic...

"A few kangaroos loose in the top paddock"

As tight as a Camels arse in a Sand-storm

As pissed as a fart in a vacuum cleaner
