On our Laughter feature’s 100th Anniversary, here’s a most helpful list for you to use for certain people! 😀

Creative Ways To Say Someone Is Stupid
A few crumbs short of a crouton.
A few clowns short of a circus. A few fries short of a Happy Meal. A few beers short of a six-pack. A few peas short of a casserole. The wheel’s spinning, but the hamster’s dead. One Fruit Loop shy of a full bowl. One taco short of a combination plate. A few feathers short of a whole duck All foam, no beer. Body by Fisher, brains by Mattel. Couldn’t pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel. He fell out of the Stupid tree and hit every branch on the way down. An intellect rivaled only by garden tools. As smart as bait. Chimney’s clogged. Doesn’t have all his dogs on one leash. Elevator doesn’t go all the way to the top floor. Forgot to pay her brain bill. Her sewing machine’s out of thread. If she had another brain, it would be lonely. Missing a few buttons on his remote control. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Has the intelligence of a carrot.

I read this aloud to grandson David, and we both guffawed. The post was funny by itself, but sharing it magnified the amusement.

Ellie – I had a friend who used to collect these sayings (long before the internet was available) … she also said a few crayons missing from the crayon box and the butter slipped off the noodles.

Ha! And, as a FB friend of mind said, “The lights are on but nobody’s home.”

Oh yes, I have heard that one as well. There was one as well about being “a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic” and I don’t think you had that one in your list.
