IV. IDIOMS
Drive Someone Up a Wall
(annoy someone greatly)
Wow! What a great set of drums!
Yeah, they’re great, but I can’t play on them when my folks are at home. They
say I drive them up a wall with all the loud banging.
You know, I am always very nervous at a dentist’s office, and the noise of the
drill simply drives me up a wall.
In Jig Time
(extremely quickly; in a very short time)
My dentist always tries to calm me down, saying that it won’t hurt and that he’ll
do everything in jig time.
Shape Up or Ship Out
(behave properly or leave)
Al has been constantly reprimanded for being negligent on the job. Finally, in
desperation his supervisor exclaimed, “Shape up or ship out!”
I remember my last visit to the dentist finished with his crying out, “Shape up
or ship out!”
