It might be fun to have a collection of pithy sayings & axioms from different places around the world. I heard that there are some non-native english speakers, so foreign languages would be great, too. Just make sure to explain them.
Here are a few from South Texas:
"Sh**ting in tall cotton." -- Southern saying that means you've suddenly come into good fortune.
"Like wrestling a pig in the mud." -- Means that your attempts are not working.
"Slicker than an egg spit-shined by mother goose." -- Okay, I made this one up.
