Help by english native speaker needed, by stefan123 on Nov 18, 2014 9:23:06 GMT 1, Hey there...
A friend of mine is planing a project about socks. His favorite name is 'sock up your life', but we are not sure, if thereยดs maybe a similiar phrase with a negative meaning? like... 'suck up'...
So please let me know, if you see any problems by using this name for his project.
Thanks a lot and best regards
Stefan

'Sock it to 'em'
Just a thought...

I thought, 'colour up your life' means to bring more colour into your life... compareable the meaning of 'sock up your life' maybe does not make very much sense (to bring more socks into your life), but we thought, everybody knows whats it means... 
But it seems, we are wrong

The history of this phrase is rather interesting, as many will know. I'll explain for those that don't.
For our international readers, as I imagine this is a uk phrase only, it means "shut up".
The phrase comes from the days of gramophone record players, that had a large sound horn. There was no volume control. So to make it quieter....... you put a sock in it!
