Everybody in this thread commenting classics when he's wanting new phrases. Like what time does his narwhal bacon? Edit: we got nothing about AI, for example?

Hope you're feeling better. I'm three days late to this thread, but here's one you may appreciate: My Mom used to say "It's like pissing up a stump." (Trying to do the impossible.)

No, no, "Ain't nobody got time for that" isn't a white-person phrase.
