Hi guys,
I just signed up and I hope to get help from this forum regularly.
Here's my very complex kind of question.
I live in Pakistan and just like in other countries, we love speaking the informal and casual Urdu most often.
Okay so when we friends are talking to each other, there's always one person who speaks a lot. A LOT! The main problem is when he speaks too much about things that are not interesting at all and non-productive. To tell him in a kind of funny but insulting way, we tell him "stop cooking our minds man".
Now we don't actually mean that he's cooking our mind/brain but it's just a way of saying that he's killed our brain cells with his boring talking.
I am looking for a phrase or idiomatic phrase in English to say this.
I know I could say things such as:
Stop talking too much man.
Stop being a chatterbox/stop being a blabbermouth man.
Stop murdering our brains with your blabbering dude.
etc.
But I want some idiomatic and "apter" way of saying this in English, may be a little taunt-like. Could someone help please? I hope I was able to make you guys understand my question clearly. :/
