glass houses

A phrase used to remind someone that they are being hypocritical. It is supposed to remind the person of the saying "You should not throw stones in glass houses".

Jane (who is a little big herself):
"I see someone could benefit from a few more crunches and few less crunch bars."

Alison: "Glass houses Jane."

Paint houses

This term is used by American mafia members to describe the occupation of being a hitman.

A friend of ours is having a little trouble with a wannabe shylock from Philly. I spoke with Angelo, and he gave me permission to find someone who knows how to paint houses.
