Bring us your expression

What they say where you're from and isn't in the Slangtionary yet

You are adding to On the blink. What is already there stays, we only add yours.

Your voice

Say it out loud, 3 to 60 seconds. Reading it is not the same as hearing it.

Explain in a street-style audio what it means and give an example of how it is used. That is all we need.

How does it sound?
Where is it said? Where the expression is used, which need not be only your own patch.

Real-life examples
  • Boiler’s on the blink again, so it’s a kettle wash at the sink. Landlord reckons turning it off and on counts as maintenance.
  • The wifi has been on the blink all morning, it drops out every time I get to the good bit of the meeting.
  • Don’t trust that cash machine, it’s been on the blink for days and keeps swallowing cards like a metal goblin.
  • My old Fiesta’s on the blink again, starts if it fancies it and sulks if there’s a cloud in the sky.
  • The dishwasher’s on the blink, so now the kitchen looks like a soggy plate graveyard and everyone’s suddenly too busy to help.
The way it is really said, not the way a dictionary would say it.
