A colloquial expression is used to describe a situation where one undergoes a series of challenging, often convoluted tasks or experiences before arriving at a solution or conclusion. It encapsulates the essence of navigating through complex, sometimes thrilling scenarios, where the path to resolution is anything but straightforward.
The idiom is typically employed to convey the intensity and the rollercoaster of emotions involved in tackling tasks that are as demanding as they are exhilarating. It's often used among friends or colleagues to acknowledge the hard work, creativity, and persistence required in such situations.
Related Phrases:
"Like threading a needle in a hurricane" - emphasizes the difficulty and precision needed in chaotic situations.
"Riding the rollercoaster of task/project" - highlights the ups and downs experienced during a challenging process.
Synonyms: Herculean task, wild goose chase, labyrinthine journey, epic adventure.
Note: This idiom is often used in a light-hearted manner, reflecting a sense of camaraderie and shared struggle in the face of complex challenges. It's a badge of honor among those who've 'been through the wringer' and come out triumphant.

The calculations in the business case were very complex and not straightforward. My ass opened until I figured out the math behind them.

It's simple enough, if you seal up the leaks, your relationship will be airtight again, it wont be open. If your landlord or counselor or outside person died, you'd have nobody to seal the leaks but you and your other half. Everything happens for a reason, you're with somebody for a reason, you meet somebody for a reason, it's not a bunch of dumb luck or bad luck.
Not everything needs to be loosened in life, things fall apart that way. An open relationship is one of them.

Says training A.I. is no different than human communication. Wow! That is a brilliant and astute point that I've never heard before... Except for when I said it 7 years ago.
Hym "Hey! That open A.I. worker must be a fan! He's saything the thing I said 7 years ago! Correct again! Do see now how that works? I'm all up in the ether now Jordan. You aren't killing shit. You sure as hell aren't killing me. Do you know how I know? Ask yourself this: Would you kill a child for no reason? Is there a difference between killing ME and killing a child? WHO KNOWS!? Come find out! Come do it yourself! I'm curious to find out. Let's see it! You know what I think this is Jordan? I think I made you kill yourself. I think you tried to kill yourself and now you're living to spite me. I think the only future you actually care about is mine. And you're going to try to make reality comport with your delusion to the detriment of everyone else because you think (or know) everyone else is too stupid and solipsistic to stop you. And you may be right... But it's funny though isn't it? Heheheheheheheh..."
