Six of one half dozen of the other

Used to compare two things that are the same.

In one eye and out the other

Something visually boring - to the point of your eyes losing focus - that numbs your brain.
A sermon from dad elicits the "in one ear and out the other" response while a friend's boring home movie gets an "in one eye and out the other" reaction.

Something that a NY Mobster might tell a reporter when he knows that his time is limited. He's done some really outrageous shit to other gangsters, and as a result, he is a dead man. Like a moth caught on a hot light, he knows it's wrong, but the danger gives him such a charge that he really has ceased to care. A guy in this position would say this and really mean it.

mugGet the I got one foot in the grave, and the other on a banana peel. mug.
2 phrases:

"One foot in the grave"- half dead, dying, death is catching up. Tired, old, metaphorical

"Foot on a banana peel"- funny, humorous, cartoon, things are going comically wrong, events are not working in one's favor. *Picture* stepping on a rake and being hit in the face with the handle. Knee slap comedy
One foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel expression-

damned if you do, damned if you don't...

Guy 1: "how are you doing?"
Guy 2: *expression meaning* on one side (one foot) I've really gone to hell, or im working on getting there- and on the other side (other foot) it's pretty stupid, but entertaining to watch, the bullshit that's been happening to me or that I've been outing putting myself through...

wish in one hand, shit in the other, and see which

You can take all of your wishes and wants, dreams, desires, and prayers, and put them all together....they still do not amount to shit.
Dad, I want a pony! Well, you can wish in one hand, shit in the other, and see which one fills up faster.

In one hole and out the other

Giving a blow job through a glory hole whilst taking a shit
The stench was pretty brutal in stall 3 when the snake wizzard was in one hole and out the other. He sucked me dry and dumped his stinky load simultaneously. Febreeze anyone?!
