Here are some more: "Folks Back Home" and "So-and-so and I have had our 
differences" Who wants to add to the list?

It's called vernacular or common parlance.

Just like "add to the list."

And I think I have used "straight to hell" a grand total of about five times in
200+ produced scripts.  Much the same can be said of the other examples.  I'm
not sure that fits the description of "stock" lines.
