mental midget

a person who is narrow-minded or has limited knowledge or insight to anything outside his or her immediate life.

basically someone who lacks education or higher thought.

I tried to start a conversation about Hapsburg Europe with that hot looking babe at the party who is supposedly a history major.
turns out she's just another mental midget, since all she talked about was her ex boyfriend Diego and her Mary Kay cosmetics collection!

house of cards

-from an old past-time of standing up playing cards together in the form of a house, this "structure" can fall apart at any time from the slightest action (e.g. an air current).

"We must plan this campaign implementing maximum precision, else it will disintegrate into a house of cards."

"It doesn't really surprise me that she said things to you. But don't take it personally. I mean, after all, she's generally a nice person, albeit a bit quirky at times. It's just the nature of the beast I guess."
