My five favourite variants of “a fly in the ointment” from different languages…
5. A testicle in the stew (French)
4. Some badness in the cheese (Welsh)
3. A lump in the mush (Brazilian Portuguese)
2. A drop of wormwood in the joy cup (Swedish)
1. Shit in the crêpes (Hungarian)
“Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
~Macbeth, Act V, sc. v

P. Claesz (1627)
When I lived in LA at the tender age of 20, I took acting lessons. For 23 years I’ve done nothing with these lessons… UNTIL NOW! Take a boo at my pinned tweet, cuz I’ve got my own web series! I know! Crazy, right?
Meh, I’m too old to care about being crazy now.
