Title: Word Play
Post by: kainos_Ktisis on December 21, 2008, 05:02:52 PM
Idioms, Palindromes, Parables etc..........plays on words. Here's an idiom....

To “have a chip on one's shoulder.”

In nineteenth-century America, a boy who thought he was pretty tough would put a wood chip on his shoulder and dare anyone to knock it off. Today the idiom refers to anyone who is “touchy” or takes offense easily.

Got one to add?

peace and love
