Never heard that and don't understand it. Eyes like a piss hole rat has two meaning to people I know. One is they are super observant because the piss holes relates to the outhouse toilets of old with no lighting so need to be able to see well. I've heard other people think it means when someone sees something they like their eyes go wide, like a rat would have to in a pitch black out house.

What does your saying mean to you?

Oh interesting, mine is totally different... meaning someone who looks really rough after a night on the ale.

Isn't wig-wam slang for vagina?

I don't think you can say it's getting less diverse just because some sayings are dying out, as long as new ones are being added at about the same rate. PArt of the fun of English is how it changes. You feel me, innit?

These are sayings not pidgin English or slang !
