The creation of an idiom

[Marv]

come up with your own, how it came into being and what it means or take an existing one and come up with your own version as to how it came to be used in common language.

example:a man was climbing a mountain commonly reffered to as The Creek. he soon realised he was out of his depth and plunged to his death. Thamserku Paddle was the father of a local family of sherpars and he had strongly advised the man to take a member of of his family up with him to help. this gave rise to the idiom 'up the creek without a paddle'
and so on....

Many years ago, there was a very successful but unmarried dentist who had such a busy practice that he often would refer extra patients to other reputable dentists in the area. Despite his great wealth, he happened to have an irrational fear of gold. His peers in the dental community were so pleased about his referrals, that they decided to reward him by sending over twin prostitutes to "thank him in person". He was pleasantly surprised at this, and had nearly completed enjoying their company when he noticed that both of the working girls were each sporting several shiny gold crowns, causing him to flee from them in horror. So, the moral of this story is:









[wait for it]












don't look gift whores in the mouth.

Anyone seen 'V' is for Vendetta? It reveals that 'V' is crazy, but crazy like a Fawkes.
