to make problems for oneself, to get chicken lice

errors are hard to admit to

shivering to the point of of having one's legs and hands cold

silly looking, dimwitted

luckier than a dog

so hot that you're dripping in sweat

to have screws loose; the lights are on but no one's home; eccentric, odd, crazy

stupid, dumb (lit. a pig's head a pig's brain)

one who stutters, stammers

person who is good for nothing, useless
