Those are all good ones, but I voted for "other" as I rarely use any of those mentioned. Offhand the only one I can think of right now is "drop dead". I'll think on this one some more and get back to ya.

Good poll! :yes:

I voted for "a steal" as that's the only one of those I really use, but I don't even use that much. "Over my dead body" is usually good in movies. ;)

I went searching for these things so Icould put them in the poll, but when I got there the site had over 300! I was like, WOW there are that many!
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....
