Like I bombed the test.
Or a lot of times comedians or performers say, I just bombed that performance.
It means they were not funny or they did very poorly in front of a whole audience.
To build something up.
Let's build up, let's build up to something.
If you build something up, it means you're creating a lot of excitement or anticipation in your mind.
And a lot of times you wanna make sure not to build something up too much.
You wanna make the expectations so high for something that people are disappointed.
For instance, maybe you tell your friend, you know, you have to see this movie, it's the best movie ever.
And then they watch it and they're like, it was good, but it wasn't the best movie ever.
you kind of built it up a little bit too much.
Or you could say like, I don't want to build it up too much, but it is very good movie.
You know, this would be another way to use the phrase.
Sometimes you might be nervous about something like an event.
And then after it passes, you know, you say, I just built it up a little bit too much in my mind and I was nervous, but it wasn't actually that bad.
So you were building up the anticipation and making yourself nervous, even though, again, it wasn't that bad.
it went pretty well.
An interesting phrase that you'll hear people say is they want to be on the right side of history.
We're inviting you to be on the right side of history.
So it means they want to support positions that are moral and they support justice and they don't want to be, you know, supporting things that are going to be seen as bad or corrupt or, you know, immoral in the history books in the future.
