One of my favorites was always "I wouldn't wish that on a broke-dick dog."
Although I think that actually came from Predator, not the south.
I agree with DMC though--growing up, we all seemed to have this weird fascination with making up new "old sayings" on the spot. I still do it frequently.

I'm not sure whether the turn this thread has taken is a good thing or not. 
If it IS then I'll add: "So hungry that I'd run up a hog's ass for a ham sandwich!"
(My wife hates it when I say this. I always lead off with "I'm hungry." and she'll say, "Ok." and then I'll say, "No, I'm really hungry!" and I'll wink and then she'll say, "Oh NO you're not that hungry. Don't SAY IT!" and then I'll bust out, "I'm SO HUNGRY..." Drives her nuts.)

I suppose she might even play RPGs too. After all, you need something to do during the refractory period.

Speaking as someone who went through a divorce about 5 years ago, I can say that, even in the best of circumstances, it's never an easy thing. My first wife and I married too young, and ironically, when we went to marriage counselling in an attempt to patch things up, it actually became MORE obvious that we shouldn't be together. Big revelation that came out of the sessions: We were both settling, since we didn't think we'd have another chance at finding someone. Ow. Harsh.
Also, no matter how amicable a divorce is, there's certain collateral weirdness that goes along with it. My ex played D&D, though she did so because it was one of my hobbies (and I, in turn, got an interest in rabbits as pets). When we split, it sure sent repurcussions through our gaming group.
As far as living alone, I think it's a great idea. It's a great "emotional reset" time, a time to step back and ponder where you've been, how you got there, and where to next? If you can't live with your own company, then how can you expect anyone else to? I did it for a while, enjoyed it, then disconnected my brain for about two years and basically went crazy in the dating pool, then stepped away from it and settled down.
I'm very happily married now, and my wife is a gamer (and was one before she met me). In fact, the results of this union had other repurcussions on our gaming group, and can be found in the General RPG Discussion forums, under the thread "...so we tossed the jerk out..." Never a dull moment, I tell ya.
As for people not being able to handle you being alone, I agree that there's a certain latent feeling of "there's someone for everyone, we just need to find you the right one" that can circulate amongst circles of well-meaning friends.

Thanks, Smurf. I agree with you on the collateral weirdness. In my case, it's the fact that we still hang out and carpool, etc. just like normal. People we work with just can't wrap their heads around it, so it makes for some very interesting glances and quickly ended conversations when we walk around corners... LOL
As far as dating goes....I have been flattered and pleasantly surprised to find out there are at least 4 different women who've expressed an interest in going out. They've been friends for awhile, but I'm really not interested. I've been friends with them long enough to know that, at least for me, there's not enough to pursue a relationship beyond friendship. Not enough things in common.
I have noticed that now with the knowledge things are coming to a definite close, my stress level has eased and my creativity has risen dramatically. Last weekend I ran the second game in my new campaign, and my players all agreed it was the most fun they'd had in a long, long time. That's a good feeling.
