Hey everyone! 👋 Today’s expression is “rip someone off.” 👉 It means to cheat or scam someone, usually by charging too much or giving a bad deal. If someone rips you off, you lose money or get tricked. 😤 Origin: This phrase comes from informal American English in the early 20th century. “Rip” in slang can mean to tear or grab, so “rip off” literally suggests taking something unfairly — usually money. Over time, it became a common way to describe fraud, scams, or overcharging. 🏦 Examples: • That shop really ripped me off — the shoes were overpriced! 👟 • He felt ripped off after paying for a movie ticket that never worked. 🎟️ • Don’t let anyone rip you off when buying a used car. 🚗 Now it’s your turn! 💬 Drop your own sentence using “rip someone off” below 👇 WE LEARN FROM EACH OTHER! 🤝

Sorry, I’m NERDING OUT about Seinfeld again 😆 Today I was listening to the new episode, “The Chinese Woman,” of the Ruining Seinfeld podcast, and I want to share—once again—my Seinfeld Protocol. It really works for me when it comes to improving my listening and comprehension skills. Step 1: Listen to the episode in MP3 https://www.skool.com/lme/classroom/8f1b40f8?md=2108088068e34c0a8926ed902f5a730b Step 2: Listen to the podcast about the episode https://www.skool.com/lme/classroom/8f1b40f8?md=2108088068e34c0a8926ed902f5a730b Step 3: Watch the episode in HD https://www.skool.com/lme/classroom/8f1b40f8?md=2108088068e34c0a8926ed902f5a730b Step 4: Repeat (optional) The idea is that listening comes first, and while you’re listening to it, you use your imagination to try to figure out what’s going on. Then you watch the episode, and that’s where the magic happens. It’s like you’ve been in the dark for a long time, let's say in the tunnel, struggling to find the exit, and finally, you make it. I know different strokes work for different folks. Give it a shot though and let me know if it works for you. WE LEARN FROM EACH OTHER!🤝
