What is a few bricks shy of a load?
A kind euphamism for an assinine, brain-free, idiotic fool.
This colorful phrase, like not the brightest tool in the shed, not the sharpest pencil in the drawer, not playing with a full deck, and other similar turns of phrase, are lost on those who fit the description.
"That guy ain't right."
"Yeah, he's a few bricks shy of a load."
"I wonder if the doctor dropped him on his head when he was born."
