(canadian) idioms

This is a list of idioms that we learned in the last 3 months:

That's the way the cookie crumbles
sit on the fence
Bob's your uncle
blind alley
for a song
redneck
fat is in the fire
I'll take a rain check
go through the motions
monkey on back

Some of the idioms we learned from the newsletter "One word a day"

Finally, I understand the lyrics of Kaiser Chief's "Everything is Average Today":

Ohhhh Everything is average nowadays
Everything is average nowadays
And everything is of no consequence
Cos everyone is sitting on the fence
