chew on tea leaves

when you try to do something but you miss the whole point.

derivation: When you brew tea but forget the hot water. (an exaggeration but thats the point i guess)

me: *editing someone's analytical essay*
Someone: What do you think?
me: Bruh you make a huge claim by saying that Fitzgerald's detail about the green light signifies innocence but you didn't explain any of it. You just sort of dropped the claim in the paragraph. Ur making me chew on tea leaves here buddy.

Leaving the Shire

When a person is one hit away from smoking more marijuana in one sitting than they've ever had before. Derived from The Lord of the Rings, where Samwise expresses that after one more step, it will be the furthermost point away from home than he'd ever been before.

This is it, if I take one more hit, I'm leaving the shire.
