Is this expression actual or old-fashioned? He's making a pest of himself Thanks

Correct this please, although it seems absurd I have to use "down and out" as a name and as an adjetive Down and outs are usually down in the mouth because they're down and out

A special visit My parents-in- law are coming next weekend to pay us a visit. That makes me really nervous because they're the kind of people that criticism every single flaw . They are too demanding, I mean. I'd like to fix them a special dinner cause I don't want to lose face in front of them. I want everything to be perfect for the occasion.

Are they ok? It's very nice to talk to you.......you're very nice to talk to. It's great fun to be with you. .....you're great fun to be with. It's difficult to mantain my lifestyle with my salary......my lifestyle is difficult to mantain with my salary. It's not difficult to overcome your failures........your failures aren't difficult to overcome. It's really hard to put up with them........they're really hard to put up with.

Could you correct them for me? Is it true you're getting fired? When are you getting fired? Do you think you'll get fired? Ty no to get fired I heard you got fired! Is that true? I might get fired at the end of the month If I get fired, it won't be the end of the word...Lots of people get fired every week.

A simple question How is it said? What's in th box? Or what is there in the box?

Play up. Could you take them a look? She got two days off work by playing up to the boss There's no need to play up to me, I'm going to lend you some money . If you keep playing up at school! The teacher will kick you out. When I was a child I used to play up with my sister. I don't know what's happening with my laptop. It's playing up again. The other day I asked some friends around to watch a film but the tv started to play up and eventually broke down.

Make out. Lately I can't make out my best friend. He's making me out to be a liar so he's making out that I made out with my neighbour at the party last week and it's not true. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Do these senteces make any sense for you? I'm deadstoned and I'm going straight to bed. I caught the plane by the skin of my teeth I don't like my current job but I suppose I'll have to make do with it.
