I wonder how many mixed metaphors you can come up with ?
i.e.
He's a loose cannon who always goes off the deep end.
Footloose and fancy-pants.
He often shot his mouth off in the dark.
A rolling stone gathers no bird in the hand.
It was playing with fire in the belly.
I'm going to put my foot down with a firm hand
