Apparently my mom thinks being “bricked up” means being constipated.

I can teach her

Gonna start using it like that now

Would it add to her life knowing🤔

I think it`s best you tell her before she says something to someone else. 😬

I've never heard that phrase before. What does it mean?

Let sleeping dogs lie???

I'm getting old because I had to look it up. At least I'm willing to look up things before trying to say them myself

She wouldn't be wrong, though... some things can change meanings between generations.

What does it mean?

Meanings change over time .. in her day, she's not wrong.

I had to google that. I need to stop googling things 😂
