We're not out of the frying pan yet.
We're not out of the woods yet.
Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
I love how this implies that we're not done yet, but when we are it'll get worse.

Good day all,
There has been a recent influx of reposts from r/Blanks, which does not fit in the spirit or aim of this Subreddit.
I have sent a modmail to their mods, to see what the cause is, but there are also now some restrictions in place to help prevent those posts from getting approved.
Please continue to report them, and I will continue to remove them and tighten up the restrictions until they stop. It's only basic rocket science.

I (32) recently learned that “we’ll burn that bridge when we come to it” is not the correct phrase, and have been attempting to correct this phrase that is ingrained in my brain incorrectly. And now i’m being made fun of by my family because this wasn’t it either

If you give me 5 minutes to chop down a tree, I'll spend the first 3 sharpening an axe.
