Drop on the deck and flop like a fish

To fall onto the ground and flail about as a reaction to seeing something disgusting or unsettling.

If you google trypophobia, you will definitely drop on the deck and flop like a fish.

Thats the way the fish flops!

Another way to say "Thats the way the cookie crumbles"'

Used to say that there's nothing you could've done to change the outcome of something

Person 1: "Damn i just got fired from my job"

Person 2: "Well, y'know what they say: thats the way the fish flops!"
