Hi, everyone In a dictionary I read this: "He says his car isn't working." "Not working, my foot!. He's just too lazy to come." I know that the expression "my foot" sounds a little bit old-fashioned these days and now cruder expressions have taken its place (e.g. my butt). Are there any informal, non-rude expressions I can use these days to mean "my foot!", as in the sentence above? Examples: 1) A: His car is not working! B: “The heck/Like heck it's not working” 2) A: ‘Ian can’t come because he’s tired.’ B: Tired, HECK! More like “lazy”! ..... or ..... “Like heck/hell he’s tired. He is lazy is what he is!” Could I say “Tired, heck!” or “Like hell he’s tired!”??? What about “He is lazy, is what he is!” Thank you!

“Like hell he’s tired” would definitely work but it sounds just as crude as “my butt”
