Another relatively new idiom used mainly by the younger crowd meaning a

casual "you're welcome." As in "there's no need for thanks, it wasn't a hassle."

I totally get this one but I often see older folks writing in to Dear Abby bitching about not getting a 'proper' thank you!
I guess I'm in the 'older' category. I absolutely LOATHE this phrase. It is NOT the same as 'thank you' imo.

..... Barbed Wire .....

This idiom is considered a Quasi-idiom in that an adjective is joined up with a noun, semantic phrase of thought. Barbed describes the type of wire, which is wire with intermittent barbs, used to fence out x, y or z, or protect x, y or z.

"Whatever Will Be Will Be"..........



If something is fated to happen, you cannot stop it from happening. You cannot foretell the future.

When I hear this phrase of thought, I automatically hear Doris Day, singing Que Sera Sera (whatever will be, will be). :)

"Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder"...........


When you haven't been around or seen someone for awhile you're more fond of them than if they were around 24/7!

..... Lock, Stock, and Barrell.....

Synonymous with " Ball & Chain", this idiom implies so much more than it means!

See now back in the Midwest Lock Stock and Barrel meant everything.. where as ball and chain meant your significant other or a loved one! I do think a lot of idioms or sayings are regional!

Sorry, I don't understand this Homoe.

Had them eating out of my hands means to me that I have won over my audience, that they "ate up" whatever I served them.... I got my way.
