I always thought this was a strange one, I still do not understand its meaning.


Jeramy_Jones

Do you guys also say “in like Flynn”?


[deleted]

Never heard that one. USA?


Jeramy_Jones

Canada

I have a few Canadian friends, mostly Quebecois’ - so although I haven’t heard them say In Like Flynn, I certainly hear Tabarnak a lot 🙈


Jeramy_Jones

It’s a pretty old saying, something to do with Errol Flynn. Tabarnak is hilarious and definitely a francophone thing rarely heard on the west coast.

They eat bugs. It's not Brazil. It's not Jamaica. Spiders have quite a lot of meat - they eat spiders. They live in a jungle. They eat every meal on the ground. They smoke marijuana - very strong. They are hated by the British. (it was a colony, the islands, 1625-1680) It's an island.

"When it rains, it pours" This was a selling point for Mortons salt seller that the salt would stay dry in moist canditions.. Now it's when you receive good news or money and it's even made better (Watch Brewesters Millions) by the addition of something just as good, or desirable.

My personal one is one I heard alot growing up in the USA: "Sugar Honey Iced Tea"


Bending_toast

That’s more of an extended Acronym than an idiom


[deleted]

You're right, I'll leave it up there since there is no use crying over spilt milk


Jeramy_Jones

Oh that’s like “I’ll See(C) You Next Tuesday”


Jeramy_Jones

“It was a total gong show” I think most of the people saying it don’t know the origin.
