Honestly, there's a few expressions that really make little sense! These are:

"He made something out of himself!"

Well duh, of course he did, everyone did something out of himself! Hell, even the trailer trash crack prostitute with 6 kids made something out of herself! Sure, not exacly what you'd call something good, but it is something.

Another one:

"Well, you know what they say..."

No, I don't know what they say, because I don't even know who the hell "they" are. Who are "they"? Are they some sort of Illuminati organization that does nothing but sit around and spew random mantras that we're supposed to live by? Damn it Big Brother, get out of my house!

So, according to you, what are the weirdest expressions that make very little sense?

Well I'll go to the foot of our stairs

"That's what she said."

I NEVER got it. ;-;
Everyone gets it but me, and no one cares to explain.
x-x;;

"Head over heels in love" well yeah most people have their head over their heels, thats how we humans are made.
@[email protected] never got it, 'fall into love' I hope its soft...

"Bright eyed and bushy tailed"

Does this mean that everyone is eventually going to turn into some strange half human squirrel? I Kind of know what the saying actually means, but... the wording is just so strange, why can't they say 'wide awake' instead. O_O

It's when somebody says you're bushy-eyed and bright-tailed you need to worry.

Up and at 'em.

What am I a dog? Are you siccing me on someone?
And who?

okay, can someone explain to me what means
"from your mouth to gods ears"? :? I just heard it and it just sounded weird.

The Full Monty
I never got this one.
I always think it means to go around nakie...

Ooh, another one that gets me is "The whole enchilada"
What do enchiladas have to do with anything?

These are confusing. S:
I never heard half of those sayings.
I don't know any at the moment, but I'll get back to you when I do.

Don't worry, I will. :)

It's like... if someone says something that's not meant to sound sexual, but could be taken that way. Life if you're watching baseball and someone says "did you see how hard he just hit that?!" you could say "that's what she said." ...I wonder if that made any sense. Sorry, I'm not that great at explaining things. x_x;

Also, sayings I think don't make sense...

"I'm gonna run up the road"

"What ails ya?"

Lol, those are both things my grandmother says, and I'm always like "what?"

They are confusing. I sort of got them, but not enough to explain them. I can use them some times, but other then that, I don't know how to explain them or use them. "That's what she said" confuses me too, but I use it anyways XD

"I'm the bad thing that happens to good people."

This saying was on one of the shirts I got as
a present, and I didn't understand it. So, I
had to return it, and had to get something
else. xD

"Don't get your panties in a knot!"

Why would I tie a knot in my underwear and wear it? Why does that have anything to do with anything? o_O;

"Look what the cat dragged in!"

If a cat dragged someone in, I would be very worried. Apparently cats that big are not legal housepets. D:

Snug as a bug in a rug...don't bugs usually get stepped on if they're on a rug?

Cats like to bring you dead birds and rats and things, though. =0

sticking your foot in your mouth.
I know what it means. I just am afraid to think of how it came about.. :shock:

"She's not the sharpest tool in the shed."

It has always been a weird saying to me. xD

I swear I just died laughing at the sayings and your responses/comments on them.

Here's a situation where one of these saying was used.

There was this one guy complaining abotu everythings, so his friend comes along and ..... I think I'll switch to diaslouge.
-------------
Mr. Complain: -complaining about everything-

Sunshine friend: You know, when life gives you lemons...

Mr. Complain: I complain about the lemons!
-------------

I can't remember where, but I heard it and died laughing. Seriously.

Hmmm...a saying that's baffled me....

"An apple a day keeps the doctor away"

Unless you pelting the doctor with apples, and somehow manage to injuse him everyday, I don't understand how they'll keep him away. Plus then he'll have to see a doctor.

Haha, I've heard so many strange ones but I can't remember any at the moment. Oh, "Sticks and Stones" is a strange one. What does that have to do with insults? Sure, symbolism but still. Sticks and stones, er um yeah.

So far the one that has been able to escape me is "It's a catch 22!"....I even asked my mom and she shrugged. I hear this all the time and think what does it mean? I think at one point someone did explain to me what it meant but I stared and said..."What the hell does that mean?" I think this phrase has a bunch of different meanings so it's hard to pinpoint what the purpose of it was. I used to not know, "You've got your work cut out for you," till a lady at work explained. XD Now it makes sense
