Stuffed to the Grills
Out of the Frying pan and into the fire
nose to the grindstone
on pins and needles
Pie in the sky
Head in the Sand
Just what the doctor ordered
Bury the Hatchet

Please tell me at least what some of these idioms mean.

Answer 1

their not jokes, neither riddles, so why r they in this category?

Answer 2

I'm pretty sure you mean "stuffed to the gills" which means one is very full.
out of the frying pan and into the fire means going from a bad situation to a worse one
nose to the grindstone means you are working very hard
on pins and needles is when you are nervous about something
pie in the sky is being very happy or very optimistic
head in the sand means you are hiding from something, like a bad situation, something that you don't want to see.
just what the doctor ordered is something that is perfect for the situation. like when you are tired, a bed is "just what the doctor ordered"
to bury the hatchet means to let bygones be bygones and to forgive and forget, to settle an argument

2)?
3)?
4)it mean like if someone is mad and you start annoying them, your on pins and needles. like you shouldn't be doing what youre doing and you might have bad consequesces. im not sure if that makes sense.
5)?
6)when your head is in the sad it means that you are ignoring whats going on. you are ignorant.
7)just what the doctor ordered is like its what you want. like you just got what you want. say you are looking for a new car, then you see a really nice one for cheep...its just what you want, or just what the doctor ordered
8)bury the hatchet means to drop the subject. like say have been fighting with someone and you realize its over nothing, so you wanna bury the hatchet, or end it.

they are hard to explain, i hope i helped.

Answer 4

Hit the high spots: I have no idea "a grain fo salt" Meaning To take a statement with a pinch (or grain) of salt means to accept it but to maintain reservations about its truth. Origin The idea comes from the fact that food is more easily swallowed if taken with a small amount of salt. Pliny the Elder translated an ancient antidote for poison with the words 'be taken fasting, plus a grain of salt'. Nevertheless, the phrase has been in use in English only since the 17th century. For example, John Trapp's Commentary, 1647: "This is to be taken with a grain of salt." "knock pins out from under" I think it means something like taking the wind out of someone's sails. Like in an argument, knocking the pins out from under someone means you just took out all the supporting arguments they had. I think. Beating around the bush: be deliberately ambiguous or unclear in order to mislead or withhold information circumlocution "Taking a shot in the dark": a wild guess, sometimes used ironically in the case of a sure thing (eg, you come home late and you're mother/lover/whoever is angry and you say "I may just be taking a shot in the dark here, but you don't look too happy to see me.")
