When someone gets a concept or finally gets a joke or is the last one to find out about anything, we might say here in eastern Massachusetts. “Dawn breaks over Marblehead.” It’s a town north of Boston overlooking the ocean and is the first place to receive sunlight each day. My mom used to use that one all the time.

As an American, the only one of these I'd never heard is "swings and roundabouts" Which, er, are actually completely different things? The phrase I've usually heard for this is "it's six of one, half a dozen of the other".

Tell you this: sometimes the silent treatment is a blessing to some people 😂😂😂😂 some people simply speak too much!😅

Rodeos are more Western than Southern (Wyoming yes, Virginia not so much).

True. However, the expression is so perfect, it's made its way to other countries.

about "resting bitch face", the idiom/similar phrase we use in some parts of Mexico would be "cara de culo"., (literally 'ass face') :D btw, what an interesting video, excellent content as always; cheers mate.

I've more usually heard "punches above one's weight" in non-romantic contexts, to describe a person or thing that gets better results than one might expect given their age, experience etc.

I live in Alberta, Canada and love to annoy the rednecks so instead of saying, “It’s not my first rodeo.” I like to switch it up with, “It’s not my first animal cruelty event.” Thanks for making videos eh.

In older British sitcoms, getting the silent treatment from people is sometimes called "being sent to Coventry" -- is that expression not used anymore? I've had resting bitch face since I was a child, & it's SO nice to have an expression for it these days. No, I'm not mad at you; no, I'm not sulking; no, I don't think this movie sucks --- it's just my face! (This one is my favourite of your phrases today) "I didn't love it" reminds of the expression "You're not wrong" -- we humans certainly can be low key & diffident sometimes! I rather enjoyed your Texas accent parody... as Texas accent parodies go, it was pretty amusing. Bellends, douchecanoes, & cockwombles often make dick moves, amiright?

Tom, does the phrase 'dick move' refer to men only? I mean, do we use it only when it's men who behave 'dick-like'?

@danielduarte6802 11 ай бұрын

Good question 🤔. And what about @$$hole?

@dawntompkins6427 11 ай бұрын

Here in the western U.S. we say, "Karen is such a d-bag." No, I really don't want to explain it. 😁

Jump in my grave that fast?

@charlesolson9019 10 ай бұрын

I had that used on me (actually, "would ye jump in me grave as quick?") by a lovely Irish lass at a music festival (in Massachusetts) when I claimed her seat after she had vacated it. Completely flummoxed me.
