Ok i cba to think like seriously so the idiom that pops to mind is "well slap my ass and call me mary/judy" - I think it's mainly an American thing but it's like the most ridiculous saying.

You use it when you're surprised.

it is an evolution of the original WW2 expression "cut off my legs & call me Shorty "

:colonhash:**
if you know what i mean
"The man who ate the boiled ham raw". Just been called this at work and have no idea if this a compliment, insult or what. I've socked the guy in the face for good measure(jk).

it is true...

another version is

"Butter my rump and call me toast" *
'Live everyday as if it were your last'
I don't think I need to explain why this is stupid.
