'practical advice given'
a great place to sit and chat!
a humorous designation for a specific spot where people gather to tell tall tales, exaggerate, and engage in general nonsense and banter. the phrase does not have a single formal origin but has become a popular, playful expression for a designated area of lively, casual conversation.
a "no-nonsense" zone, in a cheeky, ironic sense, it marks a spot for the exact opposite of serious, truthful talk. the concept is often compared to a more grown-up version of a "naughty corner," where people are sent for telling lies.
mad as a box of frogs is an eclectic series of original works intricately contained within a defined box frame size. the words and phrases used may resonate with people, situations, or even abstract concepts. the content often weaves together elements of humour and confrontational themes. many pieces creatively manipulate the shape and form of the text itself, drawing the viewer's attention. the artwork explores various themes through a mixed media approach. while the phrase evokes a visual image, it is not meant to be taken literally.
it serves as a figure of speech that reflects the work that excites me and ideally captivates the viewer as well.
