six of one, half dozen of the other

A situation which could go either way. Maybe good or bad. 50/50. See: the English phrase rice and chips.

It was six of one, half dozen of the other, so what could I do?

Six of one half dozen of the other

Used to compare two things that are the same.

Half/Half
50/50

If I go left or right i'll turn up at the same place in the end. It's six of one half dozen of the other.

six of one, half a dozen of the other

something corporate douchebags say instead of "the same"

"Jeff, which chair do you like better?"

"They're six of one, half a dozen of the other"

"...?"
