about "resting bitch face", the idiom/similar phrase we use in some parts of Mexico would be "cara de culo"., (literally 'ass face') :D btw, what an interesting video, excellent content as always; cheers mate.
In older British sitcoms, getting the silent treatment from people is sometimes called "being sent to Coventry" -- is that expression not used anymore? I've had resting bitch face since I was a child, & it's SO nice to have an expression for it these days. No, I'm not mad at you; no, I'm not sulking; no, I don't think this movie sucks --- it's just my face! (This one is my favourite of your phrases today) "I didn't love it" reminds of the expression "You're not wrong" -- we humans certainly can be low key & diffident sometimes! I rather enjoyed your Texas accent parody... as Texas accent parodies go, it was pretty amusing. Bellends, douchecanoes, & cockwombles often make dick moves, amiright?
As an American, the only one of these I'd never heard is "swings and roundabouts" Which, er, are actually completely different things? The phrase I've usually heard for this is "it's six of one, half a dozen of the other".
I live in Alberta, Canada and love to annoy the rednecks so instead of saying, “It’s not my first rodeo.” I like to switch it up with, “It’s not my first animal cruelty event.” Thanks for making videos eh.
When someone gets a concept or finally gets a joke or is the last one to find out about anything, we might say here in eastern Massachusetts. “Dawn breaks over Marblehead.” It’s a town north of Boston overlooking the ocean and is the first place to receive sunlight each day. My mom used to use that one all the time.
You are a great teacher with astounding sense of humour; I extremely enjoy watching your informative and illuminating videos; thanks for your sincere efforts teacher tom ❤️
I've more usually heard "punches above one's weight" in non-romantic contexts, to describe a person or thing that gets better results than one might expect given their age, experience etc.
I had that used on me (actually, "would ye jump in me grave as quick?") by a lovely Irish lass at a music festival (in Massachusetts) when I claimed her seat after she had vacated it. Completely flummoxed me.
Tell you this: sometimes the silent treatment is a blessing to some people 😂😂😂😂 some people simply speak too much!😅
You’re the best Tom!!!🔝🔝🔝🔝
A great choice of expressions, they were interesting and actually advanced. The pace of the video is ace too. There are sketches. Well done, Tom ;)

Tom, you're not only a teacher, but a perfect actor)))) Thank you for your way to express these feelings. 🙏👏👏👏
Forf (fourth) phrase is Cockney/Estuary, for sure.☺
Rodeos are more Western than Southern (Wyoming yes, Virginia not so much).
True. However, the expression is so perfect, it's made its way to other countries.

Jump in my grave that fast?

Tom, does the phrase 'dick move' refer to men only? I mean, do we use it only when it's men who behave 'dick-like'?
Good question 🤔. And what about @$$hole?
Here in the western U.S. we say, "Karen is such a d-bag." No, I really don't want to explain it. 😁
Nah man everyone can behave like a dick ;D
When a mechanical device like a car fails you we say the cat sh*t the bed.
You're doing great buddy
😂😂😂😂so funny thank u

As American English goes, British English is more understandable.
I didn't love American English.
