Can I use 'rocks' and 'floats' interchangeably in the phrase: 'Whatever ....... your boat'?
I thought I could but it turns out I might be wrong. Is 'rocks' used in the negative context, meaning something bad, after all it's not too good when your boat is rocking, and 'floats' is the positive one used to mean 'whatever works for you'?
