I'm not playing games.

What happened that you have become so stiff and serious??? You weren`t such before.... :(:(:(:((:

It is amasing how people can change over time.

Fortunately, apes don`t coz they remain themselves all their lives. That is our superiority over humans. Ha!!!!

only we stay forever young

At least when personality is involved. :):):) While others age physically, mentally and also personally when they get embittered and depressed by their life failures. They stop playing games and become clueless zombies in result. I don`t want to end like that.

Nobody guessed my riddles so now let me explain them:

In the name of principles, madafaka!!!

Usually said to your opponent when dealing roughly with them without going into details.

to bend over onto sb.

It means a refusal to do what other people want/expect you to. Even when requests are involved. The image assigned to the idiom features a bare ass shown to others while you are in bending position.

To give advice.

In direct translation dawać radę means gives advice but as an idiom - to manage to do sth.

when you comment on sb/sth:linen press???

This can wait a little. :):):)

to manage to do sth.

That one's fairly common

In the name of principles

And that one's less common but I've heard it from time to time.

The others less so.

The others less so.

Of course, some are common and some less. Balance in nature we always strive at. :):):):):
