•Expecting more than someone is willing to offer.
•Not thinking about what your saying, before you say it (being “dumb”).
•Making things more complicated than they need to be.

Pissing in the wind

1) To have something backfire to the point where you are embarrassed and humiliated.

2) To do something that ends up going nowhere, or, in a worst-case scenario. ends up being a step backwards in the wrong direction.

John was trying to prove to his brother Roger that he knew how to repair a computer. After he somehow installed a massive virus into Roger's computer, having the hard drive compromised, overheating the motherboard, and having to pay for the costly repairs, his efforts ended up with him pissing in the wind
