Different-yet-the-same continued - It'll Go Off
While I was on my wonderful vacation in Great Britain I got the wild idea to pick up a little notebook. I used it to jot down things that I found of interest. You know - turns of phrase, colloquialisms, verbal oddities. Things that made me go hmmmm while diving for cover.
"It'll go off"
________________________________
"It'll go off" - food will spoil, something will go bad in time
To me "It'll go off" is a warning to step away from the firearm, postman, or explosive. To my friends across the pond it means that your food is likely to spoil while you're away on holiday so be sure to eat the dairy, fruits and vegetables before you leave.
