OP the 'trix are for kids' subthread has inspired(?) me with an idea for another word challenge. this one is for furriners only (and emanates from the US).
you think you are fairly conversant with US cultural icons and idioms? here then is today's Iconic & Idiomatic challenge.
(this particular instance comes from some World Serious coverage, but that's as may be. many of these will probably come from sport/entertainment, but then these do produce colorful language.)
And as Tino rounded first base -- his right arm raised, the Yankee fans hopping up and down, the Stadium hitting 11 out of 10 on Nigel Tufnel's decibel scale -- I was sitting there thinking to myself, "Now that is why I didn't go to bed."
what then is Nigel Tufnel's decibel scale?
