get nickeled and dimed 

It is to be uncertain about what to do when you have to face some unexpected situation.
- I get nickeled and dimed when people send me a text message and I can't figure out whether it was sent to me specifically or a whole list of people. So, I don't know whether I answer it or not, since if it was sent to a whole list of people, the sender will think I'm a complete idiot.

Nickelodeon's prime years.

90's Nickelodeon 

The time when Nickelodeon was worth watching. It featured shows such as Are You Afraid of the Dark?, My Brother and Me, Alex Mack, Ren and Stimpy, Doug, Salute Your Shorts, etc. Now Nickelodeon has sold out and if they brought back the old shows, their network would be doing better.
