There were no tears

There were big heaving burbling sobs.

Elon Musk, 8/16/2018: Sobs uncontrollably to The NY Times because he has to work some extra hours for a shot at his $56 Billion pay package.

Elon Musk, 8/28/2018: “There Were No Tears.”

there were no pips from

when sb especially a child doesn't make noise because they are scared.

I don't like to hear even pips from you.
The teacher punished him in a way that there were no pips from him up to the end of the class.

there were no signs

An excuse, that parents use to absolve themselfes from any erratical behaviour their own offspring might do.

Claiming that there were no clear warning red flags to prevent them from acting this way.

No truer words were ever spoken

it's a saying to those who live up to what they are being called (like a really caring person or loving father) because no one else has said it before.

for example; I know no truer words were ever spoken but you're a really good friend.

Nowhere Man

1. A man who sits in his nowhere land, makes his nowhere plans for nobody, doesn't have a point of view, knows not where he's going to, and is a bit like you and me. He doesn't listen or know what he's missing. The world is at his command. He's as blind as could be and just sees what he wants to see. He can't see me at all. He shouldn't hurry or worry. He should leave it all till somebody else lends him a hand.

He's a real nowhere man

nowhere near the asking

Any result from a transaction that was disappointing.

Not getting what you wanted or expected from something.

What did you get for the Beemer in the end?

£3 large
Nowhere near the asking then! (Car on sale for £4500)

What was she like on the blowjobs?
Nowhere near the asking - about 6/10
Goose then!
Yeah.

I'm going nowhere near the asking on those Glasto tickets I'd sooner watch it on telly!

The Outskirts of Nowhere

ATTRACTIVE GIRL: Lol why?
MAT: The middle of nowhere was too crowded!
BOTH: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
