what words or slogans

Do you not hear too often anymore? I can think of one right off the bat: Milquetoast. It has come to mean feeble or timid and was the name of a Newspaper cartoon character. Who's next?

“Crazy as a bedbug”
The old people said it when I was young.

Oh boy this might take a while but immediately I'm remembering my grandfather saying " well I'll be a suck egg mule".
Given time I'll come up with more.

Oh... I worked with an old Mennonite.
He'd start sayings then assume you knew the rest.
"Buy you books and send you to school" he'd say.
I think the punchline is "and then eat the teacher".
I dunno...

You never know when he might throw a shoe...
Horse people will know what I'm talking about...

"Change we can believe in" (08)
"Middle class first" (12)
What a joke but nobody is laughing

[Anotherone]

“Well, I’ll be John Brown”
“Remember the Alamo”
“What in Tarnation”

[Ricky Spanish]

My son in law....
He says "hazah" a lot and answers the phone "ahoy".
Did you know that they argued about how to answer the phone at first? Silly but true

[Anotherone]

“Well, I’ll be dipped in dog shit”
“Fucked up as a snake in a bush hog”
“Shit fire, save matches”

I used to laugh my ass off when heard as a kid. The old folks sure were a comical bunch, miss em all the time.
