toughing it out

Is when you really don't want to do something, but it needs to be done. Toughing it out is one of the hardest things to practise on a daily basis. If you can accomplish the "thoughing it out" moral than you will be un-stoppable!

"I was up all night drinking and I had to be at work by 5am... I really dont want to be here, but I'm toughing it out."

Jon- "ah man hold on a sec, I got a sliver in my finger"
Gabe- "dude just tough it out we only have five more logs to load"

tough charlatan

a person who makes ostentatious pretenses to knowledge or skills and who will threaten physical violence upon being exposed

Guy 1: Man, Danny doesn't know crap about literature, but that's all he talks about--especially when he's trying to impress people at parties.

Guy 2: Well, I'd keep those comments to myself if I were you. If you expose him, he'll make a scene and maybe even threaten your life in front of everyone. He's one tough charlatan, all right.
