another irish colloquial phrase that i'm about to use is "they can't hold the steam of their own piss" and it just refers to someone who can't hold on to a secret or like, any bit of information at all! for example, at christmas time, my mam would say "blue you can't even hold the steam of your own piss" because i'd be trying to give her the christmas present months before christmas day. so it sounds ??? but it's. it's a thing we say in my county at least--
