Of course, expressions are usually in Italian. Perhaps some of you
have others of your own you could add to the list:

border of being racist and that would be pointed out to me in no
uncertain terms. Besides, the Schwartzando is already known around here
as being a favourite lick of local guitar god Gary Schwartz. However, I
have used in the past:
