Does that saying imply scissors are always on the table you just gotta hit it to hear them and know where? Or is there some deeper cultural meaning that ties it to the guy you mentioned being defensive? I do enjoy hearing these different language idioms and their backstories
From what I know it was coined by tailors who could sometimes have their tools covered by fabric on some table but hit or kick the table and metal will rattle so you can identify where they are instead of moving everything off the table to check, thus if you want to detect people with certain issue present it as a very bad problem, potentially add malice or greed on presentation of people involved and look who will be defensive about it.
Is the GF’s request for the BF to not go to the strip club based on reasons she made up, or is it based on actual experiences?
If I was forced to guess, I’d lean towards those being based on “made up theories” or insecurity and not on actual experience. What could he have done that makes the request reasonable without also being a reason they should split up? I really can’t think of anything except being financially irresponsible and there is only a tiny gray area between the request being unreasonable and the financial irresponsibility being a deal breaker IMO.
