Your favorite "Not quite all there" expression

A few from another thread here:

A few bricks shy of a load

A few cans short of a six pack

Not in the thread but classics:

His elevator doesn't go all the way to the top

The lights are on but nobody's home

And my personal favorite:

Half a bubble off plumb

mivox - no snow, huge storm out of the southwest off the Pacific, more rain than any time in the last ten years (probably 3 inches of rain since yesterday), the creek is almost over the only bridge/road into/out of town, storm's supposed to continue through a week today, good thing "mt. ararat" is just behind the house! *laughing*

Must be different groups of inbreds -- er, persons of limited genetic diversity -- we're talking about then. ;)

[vkaryl]

Yah - unless they "polygamized" that far....

I just wish this rain would go to snow. If it had snowed since it started to rain, we'd be starting the season with about 3 feet.... *sigh*

A few hints shy of having a clue.

Also Weird Al's song "Genius in France" has a lot of these sayings.

Thanks.

He's deep. Hollow, but deep.

[datadame]

LOL at "hollow but deep"! Here are a few that come to mind:

"He's safety-wired to the dumb*** position." (From a retired Naval engineer friend)

"His brain's rolling around up there like a BB in a cat food can." (From an old Dave Barry column)

"Couldn't find his butt with both hands and a search warrant." (Heard from a policeman friend.)

And perhaps my all-time favorite...:

"Man, it's like like trying to nail Jello to a tree." (First time I ever heard that was from a frustrated data processing supervisor who'd just spent 30 minutes on the phone trying to explain something very simple to someone who was clueless - that was 15 years ago and the imagery still makes me laugh out loud.)

Thank you, datadame! The "jello" one absolutely made not only my day, but my year! I'm cross-stitching this for my programmer bro-in-law.... TOOOOOO funny!

[greenleaves]

My father always uses this one. It doesn't matter how many times I hear it, I always laugh.
