I see that, and raise you “HOW to you close it!?”

With a side of “it’s just so moreish...”

I just like to point out when people are "mincing their metaphors".

Incorrect sayings that I use so often I’ve almost forgotten that they’re not the originals:

I have bigger fish to fight

We’ll burn that bridge when we get to it

You can lead a horse to water, but if you drown it you have to walk home

Opening a can of whales

You made your bed, now shit in it

Combining the latter two into the phrase “you opened this can of whales, now lie in it”
