In reply to: ...simply means that the experience didn't meet the expectation. Thanks for that, do you know where it originates?

No problem...I have no idea where it originates, I only know the meaning of the cliche from its context in past books that have read.

What about "One swallow doth not a summer make". It means that if you see a small bit of evidence then that does not prove beyond doubt that every circumstance will be exactly the same.

What about "Shake the dew off my lily"? It means I gotta take a piss.

All I can find for blush is off the bloom is that the mystery is gone, nothing about expectation not being met

"Does the pope have nipples?" A rhetorical question usually asked in response to a question with an obvious answer.

A bear and a rabbit are taking a crap in the woods. The bear looks over at the rabbit and asks, "Say, does shit ever stick to your fur?" "No." So the bear wipes his ass with the rabbit.

"be there or be nose hair"..... ...you can replace "nose" with several other nether regions of the body if you want an even more descriptive phrase....

Two my favorites from my grandfather: Warning me to be careful: "Boy, don't let your alligator eyes write a check that your butterfly ass can't cash.' In response to something surprising or shocking: "Well, shit fire and save matches." The first one is pretty self explanatory. I'm not sure what the second one really means, but the first time I heard him say it, the soda I was drinking almost came out of my nose.

From my old grandpa: "Well, I'll be tee-totally-cow-kicked-to-death-by-a-goldurn -jersey-jackrabbit". Saying this indicates that you are surprised, corny and over 79 years of age.

May your chooks grow up to be emus and kick your dunny down. Flat out like a lizard drinking. Stone the crows, stiffen the wombats and starve the lizards.

Two different ones for a storm that drops a lot of rain: "Did y'all get any rain?" "Hell yeah, it came up a toad strangler!" -or- "Hell yeah, it was a real terd floater!" i.e. it rained so much that the dog terds floated right out of the yard.
