TV Turned Off

The TV (abbreviation for Television) is a metaphor for the persons life. To turn someone’s TV off is to end their life. Or if someone almost got their TV turned off, they almost lost their life. It could be a literal loss of life, or a hyperbolic loss of life.
1.) My mom is going to turn my TV off if I don’t pass this test tomorrow.
2.) I almost got my TV turned off yesterday when that drunk driver almost ran into me. Luckily the police pulled him over in time before anyone got hurt.

Turned into a grilling rod

Being in a harsh rear-end collision while driving a VW Beetle (or any other rear-engine car with no airbags) and having the steering column skewer the driver. The air-cooled engine catches fire, essentially turning the driver into a grilling rod on top of a campfire.
Do you think I should buy an old Beetle?

Definitely not! One crash with a F-150 and you'll be turned into a grilling rod.

It’s an effective way for one to convey the gravity and seriousness of a situation involving money in a not so subtle yet sophisticated manner.
