The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Oddly meaning, you act like your dumbass parent.

前世害左你么？(In Cantonese/Taishanese)

Did I hurt you in your previous incarnation?

Parents always say this when they get mad.

I guess it translate to “What did I do in my previous life to deserve a shitty kid like you?”

So a round-about way of just saying trash-talking their kid basically.

I always respons, “So why did you hurt me in my my previous life?”

Or “Yea you hur me in my previous life and I reincarnated here for revenge” 🤣

(Who the fucked coined that phrase, why is reincarnation brought up wtf lol)

Kill two birds with one stone. Get two birds stoned at once. 😎

I don’t speak German, but I picked up a few phrases for work. They have a few idioms that I think of sometimes:

“Ich glaub, ich spinne” which means I think I’m crazy, but literally translates to “I think, I spider.” It’s a great visual metaphor, being overwhelmed by the threads going everywhere that you imagine you’re a spider spinning a web, and also you’ve entirely forgotten grammar.

“Bahnhof verstehen” or “Ich verstehe nur Bahnhof” means “I understand only the train station.” It’s something you say when you don’t understand anything, you’re completely lost, and you don’t give a shit becaue you just want to get the fuck home.

I might be off on those translations or the subtext, but that’s how I understood it.

“Jeg bryr meg katta”

literally “I care like a cat”, meaning “I don’t care in the slightest and talking more about it is an insult to my time”.

It’s fallen mostly out of use, but I’m hanging on.

“Correo de las brujas” translates to “the witches’ mail” and means gossip or rumors. Kind of like “heard it through the grapevine” or a “a little birdie told me”

You’re mustard

English. It’s a good thing, means the person is awesome.
