green with envy
wishing very much that you had what someone else has. Sharon's going off to the south of France for three weeks and we're all green with envy.

Esmer wants to know!
Moderator: Orlion
much like the phrase "the grass is always greener on the other side" or for those who've actually sat through Gone With The Wind......... "Pea-green with envy", though I'm not sure how "pea-green" differs from simply being green with envy, maybe the distinction is only clear if you wear a petticoat. . . .
Has anyone seen my keys?

are you familiar with the term "green with envy"? or "jealous"? I just see alot of people using it as "big grin".Sorry wrote:Esmer wrote:Esmer wants to know: is everyone familiar with the term "green with envy"?

ah...yes. i am. unfortunately, while santa emos were in place, big grin yellow was not available so rather than use stupid santa with googly eyes emo for big grin, i preferred to use the green with envy big grin.
now that santa emos are back, vain seems to have misplaced the big grin yellow emo with the green with envy emo. so still i am stuck using green with envy emo instead of my usual big grin yellow emo.

Perca is the genus of fish referred to as perch or yellow perch, a group of freshwater fish belonging to the family Percidae. Perch, of which there are three species in different geographical areas, lend their name to the largest order of vertebrates: the Perciformes, from the Greek perke meaning perch, and the Latin forma meaning shape. Many other species of fish are also called "perch." Also there is the lateral line system.
Perch have "rough" or ctenoid scales. When looking through a microscope, the scale look like a plate with growth rings and 89 spikes on the top edges. On the dorsal side of the fish, there consists a upper maxilla and lower mandible for the mouth, a pair of nostrils, and two lidless eyes. On the posterior sides are the operculum, which are used to protect the gills. Also there is the lateral line system which is sensitive to vibrations in the water. They have a pair of pectoral and pelvic fins. On the anterior end of the fish, there are two dorsal fins. The first one is spiny and the second is soft. There is also an anal fin, which is also considered spiny, and a caudal fin. Also there is a cloacal opening right behind the anal fin. All perciform fish share the perch's general morphology.
The type species for this genus is the European perch.
