I tended bar, in between meat-cutting for years. Usually at a neighborhood cocktail bar, with a lot of regulars, such as Cheers. You would not believe some of the utterances out of grown adults mouths. Plus the alcohol only adds to the comedy of it.
A guy from the south was a regular, and his description of various things were a riot at times.
Someone at the bar was showing some neat contraption they had recently purchased, and he said, "Well that's handier than a pocket on a shirt"
which it may be a common saying, but I had never heard it.
Another time we were all trying to remember the name of a person that had not been in for a while. We were describing who we meant, and he said:
"You know, the guy who has a lot of face to wash". we looked puzzled, until we remembered the guy was going bald from the front back.
It seemed as if daily, someone was saying something that gave us all pause to scratch our heads.
A girl at the bar was overheard to say: "How come they never ask for your fathers maiden name"
