stink to high heaven
Definition: To be disgusting or very low quality.
Example: 1) That barnyard stinks to high heaven.
2) Most Sylvester Stallone movies stink to high heaven -- they're just terrible!
Etymology: If something 'stinks', it smells bad. 'High heaven' refers to the clouds up in the sky. The idea here is that something is so bad, either to the nose or to the mind, that even the angels who live way up in the clouds are offended.
doc...the picture for the slang was excellent. quite similar to tamizh's "maanam rekka katti parakkudhu". not exactly...but used in the negative sense.
I know I know I know I know I know I know I know
Acco to this example,
barnyard ooda stinkness (மணம்) thanga mudiyamaa rekai katamayei heavenkku parakudhu
can someone find the meaning for this slang??
