yeah, it's when you hear a song and try to play it back without having the notes, or if a band is playing something new one instrument leads and the rest try to figure out their parts based on what the lead is putting down.
“Have your cake and eat it too” is really commonly misunderstood, probably because the order, but basically its saying you can’t have this beautifully constructed cake as a display piece, while also being able to eat it.
Specifically because the phrase originated in the middle ages when sugar was incredibly expensive and only bought by the rich. Many people who were moderately wealthy would purchase enough sugar to make a cake or pastry of some kind, and then have that pastry out on display for a long period of time until the cake itself started to fall apart, but if you were wealthy enough (typically high nobility or reeeeaaaallly wealthy merchants), you would have enough money to purchase enough sugar to be able to make cakes regularly, and so you could have your cake (for display) and eat it too. So it's definitely got connotations about having an abundance of wealth, of some kind.

i have a soft spot for elephant in the room as someone who watched parks and recreation front to back 7 times in a 9 month period in 2013, one of the best jokes in the memorable "snake juice" montage is when tom says "im like an elephant ok, i walk into a room and it's like ok, he's in there."
My family and I always wondered if they were actually drunk when they recorded those scenes, because it sounds like such a drunk person thing to say. An absolutely hilarious line
“Take it with a grain of salt” is like one of the oldest phrases ever and it doesn’t make sense even if you trace it all the way back to like the year 77 😭
Apparently it comes from Pliny the Elder. He wrote about Pompey the Great's cure for poison, which Pliny advised to be taken with a grain of salt (literally). Given how dubious the cure was even to Pliny and how much Renaissance writers loved referencing his work, the phrase came to be appended to any iffy advice. So glad that a video with bi-curious Dale-on-Dale roleplay sent me on that history lesson.
"You can't have your cake and eat it too" means that if you have a cake, you can't expect for it to still be there if you eat it. Like, you can't continue to have a cake in your possession if you eat it. Usually meant to refer to someone who wants the benefits from doing something while also wanting the benefits of not doing it.
“What is this, some kind of HIVEMIND UNLIMITED?” is another classic saying that I can’t believe was left out. I use it almost everyday and it definitely needs to be in part 2.
"have your cake and eat it too" is the most frustrating phrase to explain. like if you EAT your cake you cant HAVE that same cake because you ATE IT and people STILL go "huh why would i have a cake if i wasnt gonna eat it"
I just cannot get enough of Riley never playing into the Mayor bit much at all and then as soon as he goes Willis-mode he completely plays into it, fucking incredible
If you like the evocative camel sayings, my personal favourite is “tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm”. Super versatile too - “The building’s security is tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm.”; “Scrooge is so stingy with his money - he’s tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm.”; “I just got laid off and money is tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm.”; “The game was so close. The defense was rock solid - they were tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm.”; “Bloody hell, there’s no way I can open it, this jar is tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm.”; “Have you seen those two lately? They do everything together - they’re tighter than a camel’s arse in a sandstorm!”
The origins of the saying are actually disputed and not totally known, and this is not one of the common theories. It’s most likely due to people in the theater being very superstitious, so they believe “good luck” will bring bad luck. There are a lot of working theories but none that I could find mentioned being in the “cast” but then again, we don’t know, so could be!
The major theory I’ve heard over the years is that, in ye olden days, audiences would storm the stage after a good show. The curtains on the sides of the stage are called the legs and during the storming of the stage, they’d rip these curtains, breaking the legs. More likely than the cast explanation, but still very dubious.

"Have your cake and eat it too" is actually a favorite of mine because it really does make sense. You can't have your cake and eat it too in the sense that once you eat it, you no longer "have" the cake since you ate it.

Have your cake and eat it too means that (going with the saying itself) you cannot have your cake and eat it, you either eat it and no longer have it, or you never eat it and proceed to have it, basically "You cant have it both ways"
why would someone bite a bullet if they were about to go through a painful experience? the answer is they wouldn't, the phrase comes from paper tubes on the back of bullets with gunpowder in them that people would bite to get out and load their gat.

I’d like to toss in ‘if wishes were horses, then beggars would ride’. Though it might be too long, it slaps and old people are feral for it.
