Quote:There are a lot of idioms out there in the world today. I see them nearly every day.

 

So you are saying that you don't understand any of them and they make no sense to you?

 

I totally understand these:

 

Raining cats and dogs

Woke up on the wrong side of the bed

Turn the lights out

The cat is out of the bag

Feeling blue

Under the weather

Kick off (outside of football)

Life threw a curveball? Something like that.

 

I need explanations for:

 

Tickle me ivory

Knock on wood

Tongue in cheek

 

Quote:Does having AS require you to respond to every post in a condescending manner?

 

Having AS causes me to not always recognize the negativity in a word, phrase, or sentence. For example, once I asked a person whose pets just died when it became "obviously sick." She was mad about that and left the room.
