Issa2,  
You are great  :shock:
Thank you very much dear  *1

I'll add these:


as useless as yesterday's newspaper
as useless as a fifth wheel

By the way, there's something interesting about these idioms.
The stress is always on what is between "as" and the other "as", and the "ases" are always weak; they can hardly be heard. :wink:

So, for example,


as USELESS as...  *1
