Boil

Like a pimple, but even worse.

Imagine you have a pimple.

Now, imagine that very same pimple, but twice as large and even more sensitive. Like, so sensitive that it will flare up and burn like hell if you just accidentally brush something against it. That's a boil for you. Did I mention that it takes almost a week of rigorous treatment to make it go away?

A watched pot never boils

To wait anxiously for something to happen. It will seem to take a very long time or not at all.

This strategy is doomed from the start because it is far too public: a watched pot never boils.
