Like “does the Pope shit in the woods?” or “that train has sailed?”

Also, what good examples can you think of?

    “Not the brightest cookie in the crayon box” is an amalgamation of 3 different sayings I’ve been trying to make happen. It won’t happen.

      My mom was fond of “Not the brightest egg in the drawer”.

      I do it in danish, but we have the idiom here too. I’ll often make up a new one following the not the x y in the z template. E.g. Not the loudest spoon in the forest.
