Shooting all your bolts (all uw pijlen verschieten) is still very commonly used. Knocking at a deaf man's door (aan dovemans deur kloppen) is still somewhat used, and variations like "for a deaf man's ears" (voor dovemans oren) is still common.

Im also pretty sure I've heard dialect versions of the salesman one and the arsehole ones.
