My go-to staying is "we'll burn that bridge when we get to it"
Me too! Most people don't get it, which is unfortunate. I'm glad to know there are others out there.
Is that a reference to a movie or something?
No, it's a portmanteau of "Don't burn your bridges" (because you might need to retreat over them) and "Cross that bridge when we come to it" (worry about it later)
It's a malaphor :D not a portmanteau!
I love malaphors so much and they make me smile
Same, dude
