the chain of screaming

A Theory Made up by Barney Stinson (How I Met Your Mother) that there is a chain/cycle of screaming in which one (original screamer) yells at someone else, that person yells at another and another, so on and so forth. This chain/cycle will eventually lead back to the original screamer, ending the Chain of Screaming. AKA The Circle of Screaming or The Pyramid of Screaming.

Arthur’s boss’s boss screams at Arthur’s boss, Arthur’s boss screams at Arthur, Arthur screams at Marshall, Marshall goes home and screams at his wife, Lily,Lily (a kindergarten teacher) screams at one of the kids in her kindergarten class (hmm, let’s say Mary), and then Mary goes home and screams at her dad, Arthur’s boss’s boss, thus ending The Chain of Screaming.

Gold chain

A gold chain is usually worn by roadmen from London. Thought to be cool and to make it look like you have money to spend

chink in my chain

when a friend or family member constantly fucks things up for you no matter what they do.

Used to describe someone who ruins the natural patterns that happen in life. (a marriage, relationships)

Guido, if i allow you to marry my daughter, you better not become the chink in my chain.

That damn guy that married my daughter is a chink in my chain.
