Two Nuts Don’t Make A Bolt

A witty expression based on hardware: two nuts alone can’t fasten anything without a bolt. Used metaphorically to suggest that just having more of the same doesn’t complete the job — sometimes what’s needed is a complementary part, not another identical one.

Literal meaning: In mechanics, two nuts can’t do the job of a bolt; a bolt holds things together, while nuts secure it in place. Without the bolt, the nuts are useless.

Figurative meaning: Two people with the same flaws, mindsets, or roles often can’t make things work. Balance and contrast matter.
Word Play:

“Nuts” = metal fasteners
“Nuts” = slang for mentally unstable or wild

“My two bosses complain and point out all the issues on the job but don’t lift a wrench to fix it. Two nuts don’t make a bolt.”

“All talk, no torque. Two nuts don’t make a bolt.”

Don’t pepper my jelly

Slang way of (playfully or seriously) saying “if you keep it up you’re gonna make me upset”
I.E. Don’t test my limits
Don’t piss me off
Don’t add fuel to the fire

A friend is being rude about you having a good time and they keep trying to bring down your vibe by making you angry

“Don’t salt my jam and don’t pepper my jelly”
(Don’t burst my bubble and don't test me”)

“Quit peppering my jelly”
(You’re pissing me off)

You don’t hear me preaching on a Sunday

When you tell someone that something is a bad idea, they don’t believe you, and still do it anyways. The equivalent of “I told you so.”

Me: “We probably shouldn’t do anal.”
Us: *do anal
Wife: “Great, there’s shit on the comforter.”
Me: “Yeah, I knew this would happen, but you don’t hear me preaching on a Sunday.”
