Smart as paint

Modern usage should be an insult. Just add "literally." Original meaning from the 1800s: clever or intelligent. First said by Long John Silver, a pirate (an occupation known for excellent grammar?) in "Treasure Island." But how smart is paint, really?

If your target researches the phrase, dictionariies only have the original, complimentary definition --- which becomes a sneaky insult if you add "literally."
You're as smart as paint, literally. Don't be offended. I was just paraphrasing a compliment from "Treasure Island." It's a literary classic.

rage painting

When ever you're very mad at anything in particular. So you decide to rage paint. You blast your favorite music at full volume and just let your hands, brush, or anything else you paint with do the work for you.
The best painting I've ever done was a rage painting. I just rage painted, you want to see it?
