paint yourself into a corner

To put oneself in a situation with no visible solution or alternative; to get into a mess

Lean into it

The act of embracing something, or a situation, by using it to empower yourself. To “lean into” something is to own it, to cast off disparagement. You move forward and deal with it with unhindered confidence, casting off concerns and cares.

Instead of letting a shortcoming hold you back, you find acceptance in the situation, perhaps even going as far as to pride yourself on it. “Leaning into it” may even imply doing more of the “thing” in question, or highlighting it, as a means to overpower it and have it no longer be deemed a weakness or unfortunate hangup.

The phrase may have risen itself from the physical act of bracing yourself against an impacting force, in the same way a person may tighten their stand against an incoming tidal wave.

"He was often self conscious about having red hair, but recently he decided to lean into it and really prided himself on it being his look."

turn you into a curb

Using insane amounts of uncontrolled force to set a lifelong friend straight on some dispute. When a simple beat down isn't enough, turn them into a curb.

If you insist on wearing layered clothes, I'm going to turn you into a curb.

faded into obscurity after being

A group of five words. They are all from the Indo-European English language, which diffused primarily from the growth of the British Empire, international jobs with this language, and it being a common trade language. This phrase specifically means that, supposedly a noun, has vanished or disappeared into the state of being unknown both literally and figuratively.
