I'm on the fence about whether I'd be slated in the third circle of hell with the gluttons or in the sixth with the slothful. Hmm. This is really a toss-up considering that my voracious appetite and sudden lack of motivation go hand in hand; as the more I eat the fatter and, therefore, lazier I become.
This makes me wonder if hell (which is undoubtedly an international affair) will be dominated in certain circles by Americans specifically, because everyone knooooows we're fat and lazy to boot. Will we all be reunited in the third circle or the sixth?
Ah! Strike that. Upon consulting my handy copy of Dante's Inferno, I've just learned that I will be spared spending enternity with fat Americans, as I am unbaptized and am therefore scheduled to appear in limbo with the "virtuous pagans" whenever my number's up.
OK, so the last thing all three of you want to hear about is another girl with food issues. In other news, I love idiomatic expressions. In fact, I've already used approximately four in this post. They are:
1. On the fence
2. Toss-up
3. Hand in hand
4. Number's up
5. To boot (I'm counting this as one because I like it)
Some of my favorite idioms include:
-Pot calling the kettle black
-Two sheets to the wind
-Death warmed over
-Chew the fat
-Dragged through hell backwards
-Costing an arm and a leg
-Not knowing whether to shit or go blind
-The best thing since sliced bread
I also once had a hockey coach who told my team we were "flatter than piss on a plate." That was a good one.
EVERYONE POST YOUR FAVORITE IDIOMATIC EXPRESSION READY GO!

I prefer: "Happy as a clam"
Adriana: "Hot as a crotch"
George: he has no soul and couln't think of one, plus, "I think she listed all the ones I know"
Thank you, entire population of Chicago.
I miss y'all!
George changed his mind, or rather made up his mind: You're pulling my leg.
Not idiom related, but I think you can achieve a lower level of Hell if you do some non-virtuous things. Not being baptised doesn't mean you can't go any lower. So aim low - overcome your parents' oversight.
