More chins than a Chinese phonebook,
dunny budgies,
flat out like a lizard drinking,
a snag short of a barbie,
going off like a frog in a sock (exciting),
you're not as green as you are cabbage-looking,
mutton dressed up as lamb, and
I'm as fit as a Mallee bull; any tougher, I'd be a saddle-bag with eyes.

I like hugger-muggery.
1. Disorderly confusion; muddle.
2. Secrecy; concealment.

Never heard any one us it before or met anyone that knows what it means. Not that it's my life quest or anything,

Wiktionary.com and the oxford dictionary online don't contain it but dictionary.com does.

I also like snickersnee.
It was in my old girlfriends swedish to english dictionary but not in my advanced learners english dictionary. cool word though, a type of knife.

Defenestrate

I appreciate the fact that the English language has a verb meaning "to throw out of a window."

The contingency is remote
(it's unlikely or implausible)

Don't run afoul of the law
(instead of good-bye, while parting)
