In my own world, its much nicer there
Tell us some of the sayings from your location, I'm sure because places like the U.S and U.K are so big, that you have different sayings for thing in different parts of the country.

KEY: S.B = somebody, S.O = someone, S.T = something.

"I don't know S.O from a bar of soap"
. I wonder why soap was used as the reference?

"Whats that got to do with the price of fish?"
See now thats a weird saying if no subject involved talking about the price of fish.

"who's S.B when they're at home?"
Is this like a Jeckyll and Hyde situation, when they are S.o else when not at home?

"Let the cat out of the bag"
What the heck does a cat in a bag have to do with S.O revealing a secret?

The same with the saying "spill the beans"

"Curiousity killed the cat"
Why didn't it kill the chipmunk or S.T?

"no room to swing a cat"
Why would you want to swing a cat anyway?

Thats just a few I thought of.

"Jumpy as a cat on a hot tin roof!"

The saying preceded the Tennessee Williams play, "Cat On A Hot Tin Roof." Extra credit: who played the "cat" in the movie?
