Idiomaticas

Some of my FAVORITES! We try to use these on a daily basis, haha. No doubt they'll come back with us to the U.S.:

"La noche está en pañales." - literally, "The night is in diapers," a.k.a. "It's only 3:00am, STOP whining and come out with us!!"

"Sacate las pilas." - "Take out your batteries," as in "CHILL OUT and slow down." The inverse is probably even more common: "Ponete las pilas!" - "Put in your batteries and let's GET GOING!"
