Here’s one.

Under the weather- someone feels ill.
"Are you feeling under the weather today?"
It's an old nautical term. A sick sailor would be sent below the deck of the ship, so he was protected from the weather. He was literally under the weather!

Hi, Butter! That's a fun question. I like the idiom "like talking to a brick wall". If talking to someone is like talking to a brick wall, the person you are speaking to does not listen.
I've tried to talk to him about the house repairs, but it's like talking to a brick wall.

“to be in the same boat”
meaning that you are in the same situation as someone else 😅

Here's another one:
the pot calling the kettle black
something you say that means people should not criticize someone else for a fault that they have themselves:
Elliott accused me of being selfish. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!
