Many rules were implemented due to COVID-19. Drastic time calls for drastic measures!
Miss Petra Nicole Cjurkovic and company – (you know better than that) May 26, 2020
We know better than that sure we do they payed someone off to do a bad thing and tricked someone into making a mistake so we can stop it now and they won’t hurt us anymore and no one ever is to blame

George Carlin was using that phrase back in the 1960’s with the exact same meaning.

“All that glitters is not gold” is an aphorism stating that not everything that looks precious or true turns out to be so. This can be applied to just about any experience in life.

“Powerful businessman seem to have the district officials dancing to their tune.” Could you please tell me why not “officials’ dancing to their tune” I don’t really make sense of the structure “HAVE SOMEBODY V+ING” here. Thank you.

haoming – (pour cold water on) May 21, 2020
I bet it comes from Chinese. There is an exactly same saying in Chinese, a word by word match, with exactly the same meaning。And the Chinese dislike cold water – no shower in cold water, no drinking of cold water.
Dhanushika Sanjeewanee – (old school) May 18, 2020
It is made up from “old is Kool” – “old’s Kool” after that it is become “old skool”
Bernardine Kennedy – (coin a phrase) May 18, 2020
To ” coin a phrase ” the explanation does not make it for me. I understand when they use the word minting or stamping. Did they stamp each coin with a different phrase? That would make sense. To use the word invention , in my mind is not a phrase.
