Trippin' on buttons

Sheila's baby is cute as a button. I just wanna eat 'im up.

If Ian just keeps pushing my buttons, I'll Grrrrr... [a torrent of profanity ensues]

Button it, Vinny. No one cares 'bout what ya think.

Violet's got luscious hair, a button nose and an A4 waist. But she can't stand the poor. They weird 'er out. I guess ya can say she's the real deal. Very beautiful... on the outside.

Joe's bright as a button. He'll figure it out.

I used to collect buttons. Then I grew up and realized I've gotta choose a shape other than a square.

  • Anytime.

  • Yes, very different, actually.

    Precisely, I was ''so naive, kind, honest, traditional and loyal, but then I grew up and chosen to be more strong, realistic and harsh.''

    "No sweet" means tenor.gif?itemid=4433345

  • ... I don't understand again...

    "afraid not" means that playing on nerves and getting on nerves are different sayings.

    "Precisely" I connect to my words about being naive and then becoming realistic and harsh.

    Then "No sweet" is about my words "Thank you for explanatio"? So, you don't want me to say thank you?

  • 'fraid not.

    Precisely.

    No sweat.

  • But getting and playing on nerves means the same, no?

    About square shape. Do you mean that you were so naive, kind, honest, traditional and loyal, but thenyou grew up and chosen to be more strong, realistic and harsh?

    Thank you for explanation!

  • Good Lord, Roman!

    Ya can't use ''trippin''' like that. XD It's a drug reference.

    The answers to your questions are yes, yes, and no. He doesn't play at my nerves. He's gettin' on my nerves. And no, I didn't use to  collect square buttons. Square here is a slang. You seem like a sharp tack, figure it out.

  • Dear Aaaaaaa, :)))))

    :D :D :D Just Woww! Let me analyze..

    ** cute as a button: cute, charming, attractive, almost always with the connotation of being small

    ** pushing my buttons: to do specific things to anger someone, especially intentionally or maliciously

    ** button it: to stop talking

    ** button nose: A nose with a small size and a relatively flat, round shape, usually considered to be dainty or cute in appearance

    ** bright as a button: very intelligent and full of energy

    ** square: old- fashioned or boringly conventional?

    You're never weak in this matter. Ten hats off! :D

    All explanation above is the result of my Googling. haha...

    Please don't look at my button nose. :p

    Thank you so much. ^_^
