Geez!   Isn’t posting an “I hate people” note on a ‘public’ forum a bit of an oxymoron?

ok, now I feel totally left out! I just saw this old posting and think it´s a great idea. Did this group ever start? I´m a bit new to all this "group chat" stuff...so if anyone is actually doing this, please let me know how and when so I can jump in. I´m eager to be able to see/practice conversational Turkish. Thanks. -Doris

Quoting suejohnriley

Acting or looking like Lady Muck.   Pretending to be of a higher social standing than she is.  Also swanning around can have a similar reference.

 

On people who are not so bright, Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

 

Getting things wrong: Throwing the baby out this the bath water.  Making a pig´s ear of it. 

 

Getting agitated: In a right two and eight!  Getting your knickers in a twist. 

 

 Also on those "not so bright people" - I also use...

 

- Not the sharpest tool in the shed

- Not the brightest color in the crayon box

- Light´s are on, but no one is home

- Wheel is spinning, but the hamster died

- A few cards short of a full deck

- A few fries short of a Happy Meal

 

..... ok, maybe I use too many of these, too often (sorry, lots of dim people around here..)  Just tought  I´d share....

I keep being told by my ´Turkish´ friends that the pronunciation is similar to Spanish, so I´ve been trying to learn - but I get corrected by them so often that I beg to differ.  Is there any site that has an audio of the letters and the sounds? - obviously, I´m still not getting it.
