Flula’s friend emailed him saying tomorrow they should get coffee and shoot the sh**. “Shoot the sh**?!” Flula does not understand. If it’s dry, there will be crumbs everywhere. If it’s wet manure, it’ll splatter. Hilarious outlook.
“The proof is in the pudding.” We’ve all heard this saying before, but what does it actually mean. To German blogger Djflula, it doesn’t mean anything really. If you had a great scientific proof, why would you put it in pudding? Now it’s ruined. Just put the proof on the table.
Americans are kind of obsessed with idioms. We just love ‘em. But for a foreigner who speaks English, they can still have some trouble with out idioms. This German blogger is visiting America, and just doesn’t get ‘shooting fish in a barrel.’ When you break it down, he’s right. Shooting fish in a barrel is actually not that easy, and makes no sense. Watch the same guy complain about the name Daddy Long Legs.
