dodging a bullet

Something that your future self will thank you for. Also: having successfully avoided a sticky situation.

When offering me the job, Criss Angel cut my salary request in half. Then he told me that he was doing ME a favor because working with him meant working with a celebrity and his "Magic Kids". Bahahahahah! Saying no to that was like dodging a bullet!

dodging a bullet

Highschool/College slang meaning you didn't do an assignment/essay before the due date and something happens that pushes back the due date, which gives you time to do it.

person one: Damn, I'm lucky, I didn't do that assignment and it was due today, however school was closed. I don't know why it was closed, but I dodged a bullet!

person two: Damn, I wish I was lucky like you -.-

Face it, if dodging a bullet didn't exist, we would fail classes. everyone forgets an assignment now and then.

Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)

church hurt

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.

Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
