It happens constantly on Lemmy, and I think it might be because it’s less American centric.
Even if someone speaks fluent English, idioms dont translate well. And often get tossed in where they just don’t make any logical sense, because the speaker only learned from hearing/seeing it, but never had it explained.
Like any true American, I learned that from cartoons.
Eventually tho, idioms will be a way to pick out chatbots, and I am fully ready for a global patois of idioms and memes to escape automated surveillance like old times Cockneys.
I think you mean ‘phoned in’, dialed in would mean they nailed it

Hey, who are you calling an idiom?
Wild. I literally just watched the episode with that quote in it yesterday.
I watched it this past weekend! At an episode or two a day I should be through my 6th or 7th rewatch by the end of the year :)
Such a good show.
