Accident Prone

Oh my gosh, this is really good and really funny!  I watched this before I watched what she was making a parody of and she did an amazing job of re-making, parody style, Lady Gaga's "Telephone". 
Now here's my confession.  I have NEVER listened to Lady Gaga (Stephanie I can hear you gasp right now - send me your fave by her and I'll put in in song of the day! :) )  and the only song I know of hers is "Paparazzi" and that is only because two kids danced to it on the last season of America's Got Talent!  I know, go ahead and say it.  I'm a bit sheltered...
Interesting and true fact about Lady Gaga - she went to Sacred Heart School in NYC which is an all girls school and my sister-in-law now teaches there in the lower elementary.  :) Caroline Kennedy also went to that school.  Thought I'd throw another fact in there! 
So back to the parody.  All I can say, as I have been all week, is AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  This girl, who calls herself the Venetian Princess, does a great job at Lady Gaga.  Really really funny! 

Happy finally Friday!

Bonus parody because it's too funny to not feature as well!  The Snooki Song

Call it a Day

The literal use of this phrase hails from 1838 when the phrase originally was "call it half a day" to mean leaving work early. (source) The modern use of the phrase is to indicate ending something due to false sense of accomplishment. 

More bang for your buck

This phrase was used a lot in 1953 but an earlier citation puts it at 1940 in a Metals and Plastics Publications advertisement. Read about it here . The phrase means you get more for your money.

Butter someone up

There are two probable origins for this idiom and I think both are equally plausible. The first one is that when you spread butter on bread you are buttering it up like one would do when trying to flatter someone. The second is in ancient India there was a practice of throwing balls of butter at statues to ask for favor, i.e. buttering them up. ( source ) When we use the phrase today we generally mean that extreme flattery is used to gain information or favor. It's not always necessarily a compliment.
