herding cats

The phrase herding cats comes from the common saying that something involving coordination of many different groups or people is as difficult as herding cats. One of the commonly encountered uses of the term in technical fields is the phrase "Managing programmers is like herding cats" or "Managing engineers is like herding cats". In education it would be "Managing students is like herding cats". In reality, it would be "Managing cats is like herding cats." It refers to the individualism common in the stereotypical examples of programmers and domesticated cats. A similar phrase, allegedly of Irish origins, is "Minding mice at a crossroads".

Cats in the bathtub

When you are trying to stuff your nuts into a woman's fart pipe and as soon as you cram one in, the other nut pops out. Leaving you with only one nut in her asshole, but never two. - Very similar to trying to get two or more cats in a bathtub, one always escapes when trying to get the other in.

The only man to accomplish this feat is the very famous "aww nigga, nuts in the ass dick in da pussy" porn actor. Who overachieved the feat by keeping both nuts in a females asshole WHILE stuffing his giant dong in her vagina. Making us all feel inferior.
