Fucking tell me about it
It’s fucking exhausting mate
Wow Football Manager HQ seems like potty mouth central. Oh my.
Some people like to take this literally. Not me though
“You can’t have your cake and eat it”, and then person it’s directed to glumly pulls out a Victoria sponge from their pocket and hands it to the other person
“A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush”
SOLD! and then the guy hands over his bird and starts running towards the bush, naked.
“You should try walking in my shoes for a while”
the police caught me but I got away with a slap on the wrist
I did say “that’s a different kettle of fish” to my Turkish housemate once and he came back about 30 minutes later to ask what it meant. Presumably after googling kettles and fish

Haha
he’s all mouth no trousers
