April 16, 20233 yr Has anybody noticed that at the end of this episode ( Which I just watched) , that Waylon said things went back to normal, which could drive a Wooden person crazy. A wooden person....? I've never heard of this expression! Have you guys?
April 16, 20233 yr I've never noticed the phrase before, but I've found a few references online. From urbandictionary.com: A midwestern colloquialism meaning that you could even drive a person who had no manner of sensory perception up the wall because you are beyond all natural levels of irritating. From lifeblogcarpediem.wordpress.com: Across the years, I’ve occasionally used an expression that is a fair assessment for someone who has the propensity to go on and on when you were actually done with the conversation fifteen minutes earlier. I describe it as: “She could drive a wooden man crazy.” From city-data.com: My Granny said, "I swan" which resembled "I declare!" She also said about something annoying, "That would drive a wooden man crazy." I use that one myself.
