Baby cap

Baby cap: A term in the UK referring to the limit on welfare benefits based on the number of children in a family. Initially, it restricted the amount of support a family could receive depending on how many children they had, but the cap has since been lifted.

Lee: Bruv, I've got this brilliant idea—I'm gonna find a young woman, have twenty kids, and before you know it, I'll be a millionaire, living in a mansion with a chauffeur! Now the baby cap has been lifted LOL.
Frank: Bruv, you're a funny geezer. It’s not quite that simple LOL.
Lee: LOL.
Frank: LOL.

Get the Baby cap mug.

It takes a baby to raise a village

A more humorous butchering of the common cliche, “It takes a village to raise a baby”. You can use it to playfully make fun of your friends when they mix metaphors or butcher common idioms (see example below) and chances are they won’t notice it.

Me: Yo Derrick, my dog won’t stop pissing on the carpet again
Derrick: For all intensive purposes, you should probably nip that behavior in the butt before he does it again
Me: Well you know what they say, Derrick: it takes a baby to raise a village, after all
