IDIO-SHAM

Idio-sham wants you to go haywire, in a funny way. We present a real idiom, and want you to come up with unreal answers.

Remember - you should not give us the actual answer.
Example:
If we present: A kissing cousin. (Real answer: someone you're related to, but not very closely)
You come up with something wild like:
A person who keeps kissing your spouse for no obvious reason. 
AND use in a sentence: I had to curtail my neighbor's visits to my house because he was a kissing cousin disguised
as an old man!


See? The real answer is not crazy, but yours should try to be!
