#IdiomInsight

Although the idiom #DownForTheCount is sports metaphor that expresses a negative outcome for whoever or whatever the speaker is referencing, for some reason it made me think of counting cards & laying them down.

I chose this book & “21” the movie made from it where 6 MIT math students used counting cards in Blackjack to get more than 3 million $$$ from Vegas casinos. ♠️♥️♣️♦️

Eggs Great choices- I found 21 very enjoyable 🎥 1y

#IdiomInsight Day 9: The only survivor of a family trauma / tragedy inevitably feels #DownForTheCount in this atmospheric novel where setting and weather almost play like another character. Brooding, grim, and haunted. I am loving this #EuropaCollective pick for the month of September. 💕

jlhammar Yes, so atmospheric and haunting! I‘m glad you‘re loving it so far. And your photo is making me very hungry. 1y
BarbaraBB Enjoy both! 1y
Eggs Sounds as good as those onion rings! 1y
