same stove

Like a child who doesn't figure out the stove is hot the first time, many people repeat the same hurtful mistakes in life and end up getting "burned"--and inexplicably seem surprised each time. They are effectively putting their hands on the stove again and again and don't figure it out because they think it's a different stove entirely each time. The solution? Remind them it's the same stove.

Mark: "Man, I just know this girl won't be like all the others before her! I can feel it in my heart! Just 'cause she acts and talks like them and has burned dozens of men before me doesn't mean it will happen this time!"

Cameron: "Dude, I hate to tell you this, but it's the same stove."

Mark: "You're so wrong!"

Cameron: "Same. Stove."

Same shit, different assholes

When you expect things to be better with a new person and they turn out not to be. Usually the person is a politician, a new boss, or a new boyfriend.

"So much for the promised change. I was sure Obama would be the one."

"Oh well. Same shit, different assholes..."

can't walk and chew gum at the same time

A person who is extremely clumsy, or who often is sporting bandages covering minor injuries, might be said to be incapable of "walking and chewing gum at the same time".

After the third time in one month that the new office assistant was electrocuted while trying to clear a paper jam in the office copier, the supervisor shook his head and asked the Personnel office to move the employee to another department with no machinery in it, as "this guy can't walk and chew gum at the same time".

same-stepping

A event that occurs when you are walking towards someone and you both try to get out of each other's way but end up choosing the same path.

Walking down the street, hallway, or just walking in general and you see someone coming at you and at the last second you both turn to get out of each other's way, but just get in each other's way again. And then you try to go the other way, and they go that way too. Basically it just keeps going until you either finally guess right or, in the more extreme cases, you decide to just stop and tell the person where you are going.

"We same-stepped for a while before I just decided to stop and ask him which side he wanted to pass me on so I could go the opposite."

"John tried to go to the right, and avoid Jill, but he ended up same-stepping with her. It was an awkward dance."
