            @sundogplanets I've always thought "It's a moo point" (from an episode of Friends) deserved to catch on

              @sundogplanets

              Two German ones:

              "Die Kuh vom Eis holen" ("getting the cow off the ice") - resolving a difficult situation

              "Das geht auf keine Kuhhaut" (this goes on no cow-skin) - expressing mild outrage

              (sorry, no puns involved)

                  @sundogplanets there's taking the bull by the horns and on the horns of a dilemma, but not cows, exactly

                    @sundogplanets

                    "You can't eat a steak and later complain there is no more milk".

                    In a press release I sold that for "ancient wisdom" but actually I invented it 10 minutes before.

                      @sundogplanets "Det är ingen ko på isen så länge rumpan är i land", or "No cow is on the ice so long as their butt is on shore"

                      Meaning "Don't worry about it" cause the cows aren't going to drown even if the ice breaks

                        a pat on the back
                        pasture best
                        heard it through the bovine

                            @sundogplanets one more German one: "Das geht auf keine Kuhhaut" literraly: Doesn't fit on a cow skin, cow skin as in raw material for parchment.

                              @sundogplanets Als het kalf verdronken is, dempt men de put.

                              When the calf has drowned, one fills the well.

                              I guess this will apply to Kessler syndrome too.

                                    Как корова языком слизала.

                                    Чья бы корова мычала, а твоя бы молчала.

                                    Молоко у коровы на языке: как покормишь, так и подоишь.

                                        @sundogplanets In Dutch: (Je moet geen) Oude koeien uit de sloot halen - (one should not be) getting old cows out of the ditch: you should not harp on about grievances or wrongdoings from the past.

                                          For no reason at all, please give me your favourite cow-related figures of speech! (Stuff like "No use crying over spilled milk" or "until the cows come home", puns extremely welcome)
