let's talk about now something that 40 00:01:53.520 --> 00:01:55.829 you've got some knowledge about which is 41 00:01:55.829 --> 00:01:58.969 idioms there's so many in English 42 00:01:58.969 --> 00:02:02.600 exactly there are a lot of idioms and 43 00:02:02.600 --> 00:02:05.310 one of you know I put a couple that I 44 00:02:05.310 --> 00:02:06.630 wanted to about today and one of my 45 00:02:06.630 --> 00:02:11.300 favorite ones is in a New York minute 46 00:02:11.300 --> 00:02:13.980 I know that you're living here in the 47 00:02:13.980 --> 00:02:15.870 states too in North Carolina I'm in New 48 00:02:15.870 --> 00:02:19.650 York the pace here is really fast if 49 00:02:19.650 --> 00:02:20.940 you've never been to New York you see 50 00:02:20.940 --> 00:02:22.680 people walk in we're walking really 51 00:02:22.680 --> 00:02:25.320 quick we do everything quick so when you 52 00:02:25.320 --> 00:02:28.470 say that I can do that in a New York 53 00:02:28.470 --> 00:02:31.620 minute it means that you can do 54 00:02:31.620 --> 00:02:34.080 something in a really short and quick 55 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:37.980 amount of time so I can finish my dinner 56 00:02:37.980 --> 00:02:39.990 in a New York minute because I'm so 57 00:02:39.990 --> 00:02:40.950 hungry 58 00:02:40.950 --> 00:02:43.919 exactly exactly in fact I finished my 59 00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:47.280 luncheon in New York minute today do you 60 00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.800 think that people who are living outside 61 00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:52.320 the state could use this and feel 62 00:02:52.320 --> 00:02:55.410 comfortable using this yeah I think so 63 00:02:55.410 --> 00:02:57.450 because you know New York is a popular 64 00:02:57.450 --> 00:02:58.980 place for a lot of international 65 00:02:58.980 --> 00:03:01.560 tourists and anybody who's visited here 66 00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:03.540 knows that everything is really really 67 00:03:03.540 --> 00:03:06.180 quick here yeah do you like that kind of 68 00:03:06.180 --> 00:03:09.180 lifestyle that fast paced gogogo style 69 00:03:09.180 --> 00:03:12.180 yeah you know I was born here so I'm 70 00:03:12.180 --> 00:03:15.540 kind of used to it do I like it mmm 71 00:03:15.540 --> 00:03:18.690 sometimes yes and sometimes it's a pain 72 00:03:18.690 --> 00:03:23.690 in the neck oh that's a great idea yeah 73 00:03:23.690 --> 00:03:28.260 when something is a pain in the neck it 74 00:03:28.260 --> 00:03:31.760 means that it's bothersome or 75 00:03:31.760 --> 00:03:36.120 troublesome so like recently I needed to 76 00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:38.610 renew my driver's license and in New 77 00:03:38.610 --> 00:03:39.989 York when you need to renew your 78 00:03:39.989 --> 00:03:42.420 driver's license you have to go to the 79 00:03:42.420 --> 00:03:44.760 motor vehicle office the driver's 80 00:03:44.760 --> 00:03:48.239 license office and wait on line one and 81 00:03:48.239 --> 00:03:50.760 then wait on line two and it takes like 82 00:03:50.760 --> 00:03:54.470 four hours and it's really bothersome so 83 00:03:54.470 --> 00:03:56.970 you could say that it's bothersome but 84 00:03:56.970 --> 00:04:00.180 it's a pain in the neck Oh we'd love to 85 00:04:00.180 --> 00:04:02.070 say those kind of things oh it's a pain 86 00:04:02.070 --> 00:04:04.019 in the neck to go to the motor vehicle 87 00:04:04.019 --> 00:04:06.840 place I just want to get it over with 88 00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:11.220 and not go exactly and you can also use 89 00:04:11.220 --> 00:04:14.430 that idiom when you talk about a person 90 00:04:14.430 --> 00:04:18.479 so for example my boss makes me work 91 00:04:18.479 --> 00:04:21.180 here at happy English until like nine or 92 00:04:21.180 --> 00:04:22.529 ten o'clock every 93 00:04:22.529 --> 00:04:26.370 he's a pain in the neck that guy is a 94 00:04:26.370 --> 00:04:28.920 pain in the neck I hope no one says that 95 00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:35.490 about you me yes that's the reason why 96 00:04:35.490 --> 00:04:37.440 you wanted to start happy English one of 97 00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:39.720 them was so that you didn't have to work 98 00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:41.670 for a boss who was a pain in the neck 99 00:04:41.670 --> 00:04:44.130 you could give English to students the 100 00:04:44.130 --> 00:04:47.430 way that you wanted to give it you know 101 00:04:47.430 --> 00:04:49.230 and that's the great thing about having 102 00:04:49.230 --> 00:04:51.810 my own company here is that I can sit 103 00:04:51.810 --> 00:04:53.940 here and I can teach my students and 104 00:04:53.940 --> 00:04:55.440 meet my students and help them learn 105 00:04:55.440 --> 00:04:58.740 English while I'm having a cup of joe oh 106 00:04:58.740 --> 00:05:02.160 yes well I've got something here as well 107 00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:07.589 but it is not a cup of joe so you guys 108 00:05:07.589 --> 00:05:09.300 that are watching can you figure that 109 00:05:09.300 --> 00:05:11.220 out because vanessa has a cup of 110 00:05:11.220 --> 00:05:12.779 something and I have a cup of something 111 00:05:12.779 --> 00:05:15.600 but I called my cup of something a cup 112 00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:18.720 of joe and I'm gonna say that a cup of 113 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:21.660 joe is not my cup of tea 114 00:05:21.660 --> 00:05:26.580 I'm not a big fan of Joe right and Joe 115 00:05:26.580 --> 00:05:29.490 is a slang term and I think it's an 116 00:05:29.490 --> 00:05:33.140 American slang term which means coffee 117 00:05:33.140 --> 00:05:36.089 so if you're walking down the street and 118 00:05:36.089 --> 00:05:38.010 you see a coffee shop and you say to 119 00:05:38.010 --> 00:05:39.540 your friend hey let's get a cup of joe 120 00:05:39.540 --> 00:05:42.990 it means let's get a cup of coffee yeah 121 00:05:42.990 --> 00:05:45.990 and usually it seems like that is a 122 00:05:45.990 --> 00:05:48.120 pretty casual expression so you might 123 00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:52.680 even say cuppa cuppa Joe Camuto you know 124 00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:55.529 when we pronounced of in the middle of a 125 00:05:55.529 --> 00:05:57.900 phrase that talks about quantity we 126 00:05:57.900 --> 00:05:59.940 usually pronounce it like up so yeah 127 00:05:59.940 --> 00:06:03.510 it's a it's a cup of joe like a glass of 128 00:06:03.510 --> 00:06:07.229 wine or a bag of chips it's a cup of joe 129 00:06:07.229 --> 00:06:10.110 yeah a cup of joe do you drink a cup of 130 00:06:10.110 --> 00:06:14.040 joe every day or how often yeah I drink 131 00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:17.070 a cup of joe about every two or three 132 00:06:17.070 --> 00:06:22.140 hours well I'm sure you're not alone I 133 00:06:22.140 --> 00:06:23.910 bet there's a lot of people who do the 134 00:06:23.910 --> 00:06:25.800 same thing and they probably feel the 135 00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:27.900 same way but a lot of people do it 136 00:06:27.900 --> 00:06:31.979 exactly I'm trying to I'm trying to you 137 00:06:31.979 --> 00:06:32.569 know 138 00:06:32.569 --> 00:06:34.669 down a little bit on on having a cup of 139 00:06:34.669 --> 00:06:38.210 joe but I feel that when I what I don't 140 00:06:38.210 --> 00:06:40.969 drink so much coffee 141 00:06:40.969 --> 00:06:44.229 I kind of feel like a lazybones 142 00:06:44.229 --> 00:06:46.999 lazybones when you don't drink coffee or 143 00:06:46.999 --> 00:06:49.339 when I don't drink tea I kind of feel 144 00:06:49.339 --> 00:06:52.819 like a lazybones two lazybones how would 145 00:06:52.819 --> 00:06:57.259 you describe lazybone lazybone yeah 146 00:06:57.259 --> 00:07:00.770 exactly so you know I have a friend Glen 147 00:07:00.770 --> 00:07:03.289 and this guy like spends most of his 148 00:07:03.289 --> 00:07:05.419 free time when he's not working either 149 00:07:05.419 --> 00:07:08.240 in front of the TV watching TV or 150 00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:12.469 playing PlayStation he's a lazy bones 151 00:07:12.469 --> 00:07:15.830 so it means he's so lazy 152 00:07:15.830 --> 00:07:21.770 like even his bones I just imagine his 153 00:07:21.770 --> 00:07:24.499 name's Glen yes imagine Glen sitting on 154 00:07:24.499 --> 00:07:26.659 the couch becoming a skeleton that's 155 00:07:26.659 --> 00:07:29.509 just sitting there like his bones aren't 156 00:07:29.509 --> 00:07:32.599 moving anymore there's no muscles the 157 00:07:32.599 --> 00:07:35.539 bones could be a good thing you might 158 00:07:35.539 --> 00:07:37.939 even say to someone stop being a 159 00:07:37.939 --> 00:07:40.279 lazybones or what are you doing don't be 160 00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:43.129 a lazybones get up exactly sometimes I 161 00:07:43.129 --> 00:07:44.869 have to tell my students that hey don't 162 00:07:44.869 --> 00:07:46.459 be a lazybones do your homework 163 00:07:46.459 --> 00:07:48.889 that's kind of a funny image though it's 164 00:07:48.889 --> 00:07:53.059 a clever way to tell someone stop being 165 00:07:53.059 --> 00:07:55.759 lazy right because you know that the 166 00:07:55.759 --> 00:08:00.259 basic you know core of a human being is 167 00:08:00.259 --> 00:08:03.949 the bones so if you're a lazy bones it 168 00:08:03.949 --> 00:08:06.769 means from your skin to your bones 169 00:08:06.769 --> 00:08:08.449 you're lazy that's a reason 170 00:08:08.449 --> 00:08:10.219 that's pretty lazy it's pretty bad 171 00:08:10.219 --> 00:08:13.729 completely so let's not be lazy bones 172 00:08:13.729 --> 00:08:15.709 and people who are watching this are not 173 00:08:15.709 --> 00:08:17.240 being lazy bones because they're 174 00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:19.129 learning idioms and English and learning 175 00:08:19.129 --> 00:08:21.229 with us so great job those of you 176 00:08:21.229 --> 00:08:23.089 watching it you're not being a lazybones 177 00:08:23.089 --> 00:08:26.599 right now that's right in fact what 178 00:08:26.599 --> 00:08:30.050 you're doing is you're killing time all 179 00:08:30.050 --> 00:08:31.669 right you're spending some time lean 180 00:08:31.669 --> 00:08:36.789 time so that's and that's the next idiom 181 00:08:36.789 --> 00:08:39.319 that I wanted to talk about today which 182 00:08:39.319 --> 00:08:43.889 is have having time to kill 183 00:08:43.889 --> 00:08:47.730 having time to kill right so you can 184 00:08:47.730 --> 00:08:50.399 spend time doing something like we're 185 00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:53.279 spending time talking right now but for 186 00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:54.989 example if you have an appointment to 187 00:08:54.989 --> 00:08:57.420 meet a friend at a cafe at 4 o'clock and 188 00:08:57.420 --> 00:09:02.839 you get to the cafe at about 3:30 well 189 00:09:02.839 --> 00:09:05.189 what are you gonna do for that 30 190 00:09:05.189 --> 00:09:08.629 minutes you have this kind of empty time 191 00:09:08.629 --> 00:09:10.739 that you don't have anything in the 192 00:09:10.739 --> 00:09:12.809 schedule but you need to occupy that 193 00:09:12.809 --> 00:09:15.239 time some way so you can say I've got 194 00:09:15.239 --> 00:09:19.078 time to kill I have 30 minutes to kill 195 00:09:19.078 --> 00:09:23.009 it means I need to I have that time that 196 00:09:23.009 --> 00:09:25.410 I need to use for something for 197 00:09:25.410 --> 00:09:27.089 something probably there's not something 198 00:09:27.089 --> 00:09:29.489 necessary you have to do but you're just 199 00:09:29.489 --> 00:09:31.410 entertaining yourself for doing 200 00:09:31.410 --> 00:09:34.279 something while you're waiting for the 201 00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:36.989 Vanessa if you had if you were in that 202 00:09:36.989 --> 00:09:39.839 situation you had 30 minutes of time to 203 00:09:39.839 --> 00:09:43.109 kill what would you do oh probably if I 204 00:09:43.109 --> 00:09:46.828 had my phone with me I'd probably listen 205 00:09:46.828 --> 00:09:49.919 to a podcast this it's a good thing to 206 00:09:49.919 --> 00:09:51.929

00:10:11.009 --> 00:10:13.519 completely addicted to social media and 216 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:16.379 so when I have when I when I need to 217 00:10:16.379 --> 00:10:19.759 kill time it usually kind of goes 218 00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:23.850 Facebook Twitter Instagram snapchat oh 219 00:10:23.850 --> 00:10:27.860 great that's the order of interest 220 00:10:27.860 --> 00:10:30.629 that's the order
