Storm in a teacup
Storm in a teacup (in British English), tempest in a teapot (in American English) is an idiom meaning a small event that has been exaggerated out of proportion.[1]
Both the American and British phrases are long preceded by Cicero's Latin "Excitabat enim fluctus in simpulo".[5] The phrase, translated literally, reads: "He was stirring up waves in a ladle".

VSW26 OBJECTS & IDEAS: installation
“Installation art changes the way we view art by
shifting the traditional relationship between viewer, artwork and context;
rather than positioning the viewer and space as passive in relation to the art object. Installation Art creates a dynamic interaction between the three elements.”

Narrator: Hector was not forgiven. Not yet. Not inside her. But Aisha would forgive Hector, as Hector would forgive her. One day. She knew that.
Maybe that's what marriage was, at it's core it was negotiation. It was surrender.The Slap - Episode 7 Aisha
