he who laughs last
laughs worryingly fast

you’re skating on thin ice
climate change – nice

let sleeping dogs lie
unless they’re on Inflacam and basically high

the elephant in the room
when you’ve told them it’s only dogs you groom

catch more flies with honey than vinegar
no wonder the neighbours think you’re sinister

you heard it straight from the horse’s mouth
but didn’t have a clue what he was on about

it’s not rocket science
see your course supervisor for further guidance

you’re the apple of my eye
but I’m a gardener not an ophthalmologist, FYI

take everything with a pinch of salt
high blood pressure comes as default

have a monkey on your back
when you went IN to monkey world with a rucksack

barking up the wrong tree
anger management classes start on Monday

plenty more fish in the sea
not for much longer unfortunately

cold hands
no gloves
