What are some funny euphemisms for stating a person lost or was bested badly?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) June 7th, 2015

A bit of lighthearted fluff to muse over, what are some colorful ways to say someone got bested, or beat badly? For instance, ”This game is in the refrigerator, the light is out, the eggs are cold, the Jell-O is jiggling and the butter is getting hard”, ”Stick a fork in them, they are done”, ”He got smoked better than a summer sausage” or ”Best head for the exits now folks, it’s all over but the shouting”

Stabbed and slabbed.

Creamed like good tea or bad corn.

I’ve heard both, “Beaten like an egg” or “Beaten like a redheaded step-child”.

all over but the shouting

I always heard it as “all over but the crying”.

^ I guess that is from the perspective of the loser than the victor; the loser will be crying, the victor will be whooping it up.
