on the same page, but in different books! 

when you know that everything is good with someone/something, but there is still this thing!
said when you are in a situation where you know that something is missing or wrong, but cant quite point out what it is.
John: she said that she knew she loves me, but that there was something missing.
Chris: dude, apparently you guys are "on the same page, but in different books!"

The same side of 2 different coins

To be the same as another, without actually ever meeting them.
I’m surprised you never heard of him, you’re basically the same side of 2 different coins. Maybe you guys will stick like glue.

Different sides of the same turd 

When two things are equally as shit as each other.
“Hipsters are better than chavs”.

“They’re different sides of the same turd!”

Different trees in the same orchard

When people are almost similar, but not exactly the same. The same kind of tree, but the branches are different, some have more leaves than others.
"They're both assholes, but in different ways."
"Yeah, they're like different trees in the same orchard."
The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
