What are some (non-English) idioms, and what do they mean (both literally and in context)? Odd ones, your favorite ones - any and all are welcome. :)

For example, in English I might call someone a “good egg,” meaning they’re a nice person. Or, if it’s raining heavily, I might say “it’s raining cats and dogs.”

    " there are no children being made here", nothing is happening/its boring/lets go

    My sides went into orbit. How else would someone entertain themself, when this expression was coined? TV is a recent invention, after all…
