Flash Fiction Challenge: Behold The Idiomatic!

The Idiomatic.

I love it. It basically mashes up a couple-few idioms into something new and very possibly inane, and very possibly wise. (Example: “God shouldn’t cross the bridge till you come to it.” What does that mean? I don’t know! But damnit, I like it.) It forms the backbone of today’s fiction challenge.

Click it. Get a fake mash-up idiom you like. (Re-clicks are fine, obviously.)

Then use it in a story.

That’s it.

Length: ~1000 words
