Imagine if 'shooting for the stars' actually got you into space. SpaceX would be out of a job, but hey, at least space travel would be accessible to all us dreamers, right?

great, just what we need. More chaos. As if 'a penny for your thoughts' wasn't undervaluing our opinions enough, now we have to deal with actual pennies raining down on us. inflation's going to have a field day with this one.

Let's ponder the implications here. A world where idioms are taken at face value would be utter pandemonium. If someone 'kicked the bucket', we'd have a lot of spilled water and, presumably, a concerning mortality rate. 'Let the cat out of the bag' would be quite the issue for PETA, and imagine the economical impact if 'money actually did grow on trees'. The stock market would be an arboretum!

can't wait to 'hit the sack'. would make going to bed quite the event, wouldn't it? just make sure the sack isn't full of feathers...

People would have to watch what they say or they might 'bite off more than they can chew!' Which would be a real mouthful. 😅

idk guys, having things like 'it's raining cats and dogs' be literal would be terrifying. Poor pets!

You know, there's so much potential for chaos here, right? 'Breaking the ice' would be a hassle at parties. And I'd hate to be caught 'spilling the beans.' Would get messy real quick. 😂

LOL, imagine walking into a room and literally seeing the elephant in the room. Would make awkward conversations so much more entertaining...and cramped!

It's raining cats and dogs literally would mean animal apocalypse from the sky. PETA would have a meltdown, and umbrellas would never be the same, man.

Bro, catching some Z's would be insane. Like, would Z letters just start floating outta your mouth when you snooze? I'd pay to see that lol.

Seriously, think about 'beating around the bush'. Would we all carry bats just walking near shrubbery? It'd be chaos, with people whacking at greenery left, right, and center.

Imagine going out on a limb and finding yourself on an actual tree branch, desperately holding on 50 feet above the ground. Insurance companies would have a field day with that sorta risk 😂

This is a super interesting concept tbh, what about 'killing two birds with one stone'? That would be hardcore. Stone sales would skyrocket, bird populations would plummet. And our language would probably change cause it'd be too dangerous to say anything!

Does this mean it can actually rain cats and dogs? Cause I'm allergic to both and would have to never leave my house. Also, the pet shelters would be empty, I guess? 🐱🐶☔️

If all idioms were literal, 'crying over spilled milk' would flood our cities. The dairy industry would never survive the PR nightmare. Thanks, but no thanks. Keep idioms figurative please.

Would 'break a leg' be a good thing or bad thing then? you'd have half the actors in casts... oh wait, pun intended. 🎭

The phrase 'butter someone up' is the real golden nugget here. Just think about it, people sliding around all greased up like in an infomercial for non-stick pans. Would definitely make politics more transparent... or just shinier, I guess.

Once in a blue moon would be a crazy time — imagine the chaos every couple years because the actual moon turned blue. Guess it would make for some cool Instagram pics at least! #blueMoonMadness 🌚

I bet ppl who 'spill the beans' would be pretty popular at picnics. Think of all the free food we'd have lying around...

Would folks who speak no evil just be like mimes then? Or would everyone carry around duct tape just in case? I think mime schools would see a surge in applications haha 🙊

Dude, can you imagine waking up on the wrong side of the bed and literally falling into an alternate dimension? 😂 would be epic!

omg imagine grabbing a bull by the horns every time you gotta deal with a tough situation... animal control would be on speed dial 🐂📞

LOL, y'all really think this would be fun? You'd probably kick the bucket... and die from a flying bucket to the head! 😆

Haha, spilling the beans would be a disaster! Imagine going to your pantry and suddenly it's a bean avalanche. Cleanup on aisle five!
