Thread: Questions about idioms.

Oh, yes, I can see the problem with that.

About the other one, in English you could say, "You'll set the world/Thames on fire all right, after the second coming of Christ!" So you can see, its fairly easy to string idioms together, sometimes. Maybe English is different than Russian in this respect.

That means something like "You are good for nothing", doesn't it? Is my guess right?
