Hi,

Talking out the side of your neck


Letting your mouth write checks that your *** can't cash.

I've never heard either of these expressions.

Interesting. This isn't usual for me. Where I grew up the expression was 'You're talking through your hat'. I have no idea of the origin, but I suspect it may be a 'politically incorrect' reference to Mormonism.

It means you are talking S&%t. I'm 58 years old. We used this expression in the old days. I still do.
