How fucking disgusting is that idiom? Think about your eyes. Think about a potato peeler. Think about the possible relationships between your eyes and a potato peeler.
Americans are stupid. Where do we come up with this bullshit?
"I'm going to let you in on a little secret: every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it; don't wait for it; just let it happen."

I think song lyrics are even worse. Dave Matthews: “Shake me like a monkey, baby!”
Who shakes a monkey? That’s awful, and lazy song-writing. If I ever meet Dave Matthews, I”m shaking the shit out of him. And his monkey.
Asshole.
Dude. I shake a monkey, like… on the the regular. So I don’t know what you’re on about.
Maybe the line is “shave me like a monkey, baby?” Because that would make sense too. I think. In which case, have fun shaving Dave Matthews next time you see him. Good luck with that.
