My favourite phrase for being busy from the US South is “I'm as busy as a one-legged cat in a sandbox.” My favourite Aussie variant is a toss-up between “flat out like a lizard drinking” and “as busy as a centipede on a hot plate.” Anybody know some fun ones from other languages?

in turkish we say “götümde ayı bağırıyor” which means “a bear is shouting on my ass”

This is my new favourite - thank you! Is it a well-known expression, if you don’t mind be asking?

yes it is well-known, yet not very usable for every situation. it’s more appropriate for streets since “ass” part is very vulgar
