Like shooting fish in a barrel
One french fry short of a happy meal Sacred cow
When the cats are away the mice will play Get lost (go away)
Clear as mud
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth
Pull a rabbit out of the hat
Salt of the earth
Not one red cent
Close shave
Old guard
Serious as a heart attack
Don't go away mad. Just go away.
Fit as a fiddle
Always look at the bright side of life Offthewall
Turn the screw
Who opened the cattle guard?
He was in his golden years
Break a leg!
Settle your hash
On the rampage
Are you hard of hearing
