“No Bigger Than A Minnow In A Fishing Pond”
This phrase reminds us of the “big fish in a small pond” expression, but it has a different meaning. It is a very descriptive way to say that something is very small, just like a minnow in a fishing pond. Anyone who knows anything about fishing knows that this means really small.

“Three Sheets To The Wind”
Anyone who has had one too many drinks can relate to this one. If you’ve indulged just a bit too much and you continue with the shenanigans, then someone might be saying that you’re three sheets to the wind. This phrase dates back to nautical talk, since a sheet refers to a rope that’s flailing around in the wind, just like a drunk person does.
