Because I'm a hard core nerd, and English would be boring without idioms....My 5th grade teacher always said "Idioms, not idiots!"
An ode to American idioms that get lost in translation, for that we get when foreigners stare at us trying to understand what was said
-My mind is blown
-I slept like a rock
-'86 that...
-Your mom goes to college
-I know it by the book
-My noodle is baked (personal favorite)
-The cat is out of the bag
-Mind your own beeswax
-Don't catch your eggs before they hatch
