Hello everybody welcome back to Daily Easy English Expressions, the Podgast.
Oh my goodness, it's been a long day.
for me it's Monday and this morning, me and my son, we went to the hospital and you know he had a check -up, I had a skin check - I'm a white guy.
We get skin cancer so we had to do a skin check, and then I went to the store and when I get home, my truck died.
Yeah. So I've been spending about four hours trying to figure out what's wrong with the truck.
I had a Mechanic come out to the house, and you know we changed the battery.
We did this and that and Now I have to have my truck towed into town carried into town to be fixed oh My God, this is going to be expensive.
It's been a terrible Monday.
I hope that your Monday has been much Better than mine well today.
I've got a great expression to teach you It's a good one.
You're gonna like it.
It is Junky a junky now last week we have the expression.
I'm a news junky hmm junky spelling J you n Kie What a junkie means actually is an addict add ICT now when we say addict we think of a drug an addict or an alcohol addict.
OK, so if you imagine that type of person, a drug addict or an alcohol addict, think about how they look.
Do they look good? No. Do they look healthy?
No. If they really are an addict, the only thing they think about.
The only reason they live is for the drugs or the alcohol.
So their health is garbage.
They look like garbage.
Their money situation is garbage.
Their personal life is garbage.
