I never promised you a rose garden

usually a response given after being blamed by someone for a situation that didn't live up to their lofty (and sometimes unrealistic) expectations.

Person 1: I can't believe I married you, this is not the life I signed up for!

Person 2: Oh yeah? Well, I never promised you a rose garden.

Promethalean

Nickname for promethazine, also known as lean or sizzurp. Used as a recreational drug, and referenced by a ton of rappers in songs.

However, some artists just talk about using lean, while in reality they have never touched the stuff. (Drake aka Jimmy the cripple)

non-core promise

A commitment to deliver (a service, funding, an item) that is subsequently set aside. The broken promise is then explained with the glib expression "oh, but that promise was non-core".

Now generalised to non-political situations, too.

Origin: Australian federal elections at the turn of the 20th/21st centuries. The conservative party (known as the Liberal/National coalition) made a number of election promises which were broken soon after the election. The prime minister, John Howard, attempted to explain this behaviour by claiming that some promises are "core" and some are "non-core" and thus, don't count.

Not only did "No tax increases, no new taxes" turn out to be a non-core promise, but in the campaign, Howard had also given a solemn undertaking that "I'm not going to break any promises". That one was certainly non-core.

Other Guy: "Yeah, she always was quite the promiscuitor."
