as all hell

Used to exaggerate a word in a silly manner.

It is cold as all hell outside.

That picture is as ugly as all hell.

all right

Okay; nothing wrong; peachy keen.

It very infrequently means 'not okay' or 'I'm secretly having a bad day' or 'something is wrong, but I'm trying to hide/ignore it'.

Good Example:
"Hey, man, how are you doing?"
"I'm all right."
"Good."
"Hey, do you want to go get some ice cream and play some Sega Genesis games?"
"That sounds all right to me, my friend."

Bad Example:
"How's it going?"
"All right."
"Just all right?"
Here, it implies the first speaker used 'all right' in an incorrect sense, which is not likely the case.

Which may be followed by:

"Not 'great' or 'spectacular'?"
This response assumes the day has to be extraordinary or noteworthy. It implies the second speaker feels it's up to them to spice up the first speaker's life, wants to rope them into some time-wasting activity, or just has a terrible sense of humor.

dunno-all

A person who thinks they know everything who really knows nothing at all. After two weeks of hanging around a dunno all, you know everything they know and that have not gathered one bit of intelligence when you catch up with them 4 years later. The stories and un-applied knowledge repeats itself.

Minion: have you seen Jo lately

Thinker: yEah, i havent seen her for years and she still has the same stories as back then. The only time she stopped talking was to listen for her echo!

Minion: Figures, I always thought she was a dunno-all!
