I accidentally saw the lecture on slang at cctv6 at six o'clock. I decided to sort the records and thought it was a bit useful.
On pins & needle: keen on what will happened next?
Wishful thinking:
A close call: almost get it
Yardstick: Performance Measurement
Made burger out of (SB organ) knees: very miserable, organ injury.
Swing by: Take a look
Right in one's face: Something very obvious. It's coming up. On top of my tongue.
Cut to the chess: directly.
Paydirt: very valuable, I hit paydirt.
Live off the fat of the land: It's good without hand work.
You have to give it to Ben, he really throws a party.
Might as well: not as good.
Kill two bird with one stone.
Eat like a bird: small meals
A little bird told me: You tell others and don't want to tell them their names.
Come to one's sense: Come on.
Go with the flow: Follow the feeling.
Back in the day: recall the past.
Posthaste: postaste (read) fast.
