old iowa trick

A ruse performed out of casual self-interest. Mildly disrespectful. Always successful.

"So he found buried treasure while he was digging around in someone else's yard. Get this: he left it there, came back, and bought the property!"

"That's an old Iowa trick, friend."

parlor trick

What da spider famously tried to play on da fly through verbal enticement --- i.e., inviting in said buzzy being with promises of fine and homey accommodations.

Even modern-day folks could take a lesson from Mary Howitt's early-1800's kiddie-poem --- there are always gonna be plenty of deceitful shysters around who will try all number of "parlor tricks" on you in an attempt to lure you into their "webs of deception", such as financial scams, empty promises of romance, false/exaggerated claims or destitution, etc.

Trick

Usually used to describe a hoe. However, in contrast, should only be used to describe a sandwich in which the bottom of the bag is open and seemingly gone. Thus, the sandwich (oftentimes from the Davis, Ca Starbucks) slips through with ease leaving you perplexed and unsatisfied.

*sandwich falls on lap* “Oh man they gave me a trick sandwich again!”
