this means that you should keep yourself away from interfering in any hard issue which does not belong to you , to save yourself from any harm or danger

this refers to some curious persons who interfere in each thing which is non of their business and even if that thing was over than their tolerance

in fact curiosity is something bad

best wishes.....

sorry Mister Micawber but this is an expresion , it consists an implied meaning

it does not mean the game itself , no

but it comes to mean another thing ..... which is the curiosity...

thanks
