someone else's hangover 

This is when you wake up in the morning feeling like you really tied one on the night before even though you didn't have anything to drink. Through some sort of karmic mixup, you woke up with someone else's hangover, and they woke up feeling like a champ.

me: Ouch. My head's really banging this morning.

you: Well, you didn't have anything to drink last night - must have someone else's hangover.

Someone else's bonzai tree 

Especially relevant in big companies. When you develop an intricate, sought after skill set, but never rise to the level that was possible from your early potential, that may have been/still could be achievable elsewhere.

Zach has a PhD from an ivy league college, and has built enviable experience, but has never risen above director level in the blue chip company he works for. He's become little more than someone else's bonzai tree, and should probably leave, in order to become a red wood.

Thrashing around in stinging nettle with someone else's dick 

Used as an expression for people who enjoy benefits while someone else is taking the risk for it, and therefore they can give false advice, act irresponsibly without retribution.
Often associated with golden boys, politicans, or people in high positions.
Originated in Hungary.

It's easy for the politicans to pass a new act, they are thrashing around in stinging nettle with someone else's dicks, not theirs.

We can't just make someone else's fish! 

(noun): A saying dating back to medieval Europe (apx 1100 C.E.). Originally meant to denote one fishmonger's unwillingness to copy his competitor's sign (and thus claim that he sold the same kind of fish), the saying has come to refer to any general unwillingness to copy someone else's work, specifically when requested to do so by a customer.

"I was wondering if you could make me some copies of this licensed product."
"Sorry but they own the rights to it. We can't just make someone else's fish!"
