"In a pig's a$$!" Like 'in a pig's eye' or point of view but different.
GM: Go clean up your room.
Kid: It IS clean!
GM: In a pig's a$$ its clean!

Some other notable favorites:
"Take a long walk on a short pier"
"Go play marbles on the highway"
"Your a$$ sucks buttermilk" <-- I never understood that one.
"Up your a$$ with a BB gun"
"Up Mike's a$$" <-- No idea who Mike is/was.

Grandma was a mean alcoholic with an obvious anal obsession.
Grandma had Tourettes...

My grandfather used to say "Teach a man to build a fire, and he will be warm for a day. Light the man on fire, and he will be warm for the rest of his life."

My grandpa simple abuses the preposition "out here." As in...

Out here we got this one young boy out here. And he used to run the 100-meter dash out here. Well, just last week out here, they had them a track meet down at the school out here. I was out here out here [yes he doubles them up] cheering for this boy out here. And I'll be damned if he didnt set the school record out here.
