I have just walked down the lane to the local bus shelter to pin up a poster for a concert. When I got there, a man in his 0os (I would think) was waiting for a bus.
I tried to put a drawing pin in the wood (with some difficulty) and he said; "Ooh...that is very hard wood - you won't get those drawing pins in." I then proceeded to knock the box of drawing pins off the bench and they scattered all over the floor: "Ooh...that's bad. It is going to be really hard to pick all those up."
I was shaking with laughter. 
Glad I am not married to him!
"Old fashioned" expressions that young people have never heard.
