Quedarse con el día y la noche

Es decir, te queda poco tiempo para decir que no te queda mucho tiempo. O no te queda mucho tiempo para decir que te queda poco tiempo (en fin, me gusta liarla :D)

Sí verdad.. de hecho me falta el tiempo para aprender como decir que me queda poco tiempo para saber como decir que no me queda mucho tiempo.. :sad: :D

Es un ' catch 22' :D ('Una situación sin salida' me dice mi diccionario :p no suena tan 'catchy' ..:D)

I thought it was a joke (my English is not good at yours :sad: ). Let me tell you what I understood in Spanish:

¿Qué es lo que te puede meter en un bucle cuando no te lo esperas?
Un bucle sin fin.

:thinking: (extraño chiste...) :confused:

:D

Ah! Sorry! :rose: I thought you knew the espression. ' To throw someone for a loop' means as much as to take someone by surprise (usually in a negative way), to confuse, shock or to upset someone.

knock/throw for a loop Slang To surprise tremendously; astonish.

The 'endless (or infinite) loop' is a term from IT , computer programmation. :)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_loop

I made a 'play on words' (well tried to..:D) with 'bucle' in Spanish ;)

Sorry about the confusion! :rose:

i remember a professor (cuban) saying "estoy en clenque" for "i'm broke".

he explained that it meant he was 'reduced' to driving a 'clunker', which
is a car in poor condition.

I'm Skint
I have also heard a Cockney (Londoner) say "Boracic"

This is an example of rhyming slang:
boracic lint = skint
Rosie Lee = cup of tea
apples and pears = stairs
trouble and strife = wife

I knew the endless loop, but I didn't know to throw for a loop. Now I know, thanks :)
