Nah, that'd be boring. I'd rather leave my ramblings open to interpretation. That said though, I sometimes don't even know what i'm going on about myself!! Lol.
Great...so, you're not even gonna translate it for us now?
I'm still scratching my head over a comment you made in your crushed coral thread...something about needing to remove your pants in order to measure the buffering capacity of your water...and now this...?

If something's totally inadequate, rubbish or generally crap, over here in the uk, in some areas, we refer to whatever is totally inadequate, rubbish or generally crap as being....pants, hence my water KH and GH is pants. I'm not even sure if that one has any history behind the term, a lot of our strange "terms" hark back to our grandparents times. They must have had nothing better to do back then than to make stuff up to bamboozle future generations of foreigners. Lol.
"Popping ones clogs" is a term that was born in the 50's and 60's I believe, meaning to die. Back then, most of the male workforce worked in industries that required them to wear clogs. Due to them working all the hours god sent back then it was said that the only time you didn't need your clogs was if you were dead! The "popping" part comes from the word "pawn" (or sell). Basically, if you didn't need your clogs anymore, you'd sell them.
But what the old guffers didn't realise when they coined the phrase was how difficult it would be to sell your own clogs......if you were dead!
So now we're both bamboozled!! Lol.

Unfortunately, because there’s so much American television in the world, I don’t see that there is a local idiom I could spell out which people here would not understand.
Just about anything outside of that category would be things unfit for publication. Actually, if you listen to rap you will hear most of those anyhow.
