you can't be just a little bit pregnant

It means that the situation that is being described is a binary. It is something that is either IS or ISN'T. Such as is the case when one is pregnant. One either "is" pregnant or "is not", there is no in between or partial pregnancy. It means it is a situation in which there is no ambiguity or no gray area. You can't be "just a little bit" of certain things.

You can't be just a little bit pregnant when you are talking bankruptcy. You can't be just a little bit bankrupt. You are either bankrupt or not bankrupt.

Lou Mannheim (Hal Holbrook) in the movie "Wall Street" used this phrase while conversing with Bud Fox

If It Were A Snake, It Would Have Bit Me

An idiom most often used in the Southern parts of the United States. Often heard when older men or women are searching in a general area, looking for a misplaced object. They search for a good while, only to find that the object was a few feet from them all the time. They pick it up, brush it off, grin and say:

"If it were a snake, it would have bit me."

This is because in the rural South snakes are a part of life. Everyone has at least one story about the time they were surprised by a rattler or a cottonmouth.

Guy 1: Where are my keys?
Guy 2: They are right in front of you on that table.
Guy 1: If it were a snake, it would have bit me.

throw up a little bit in my mouth

involuntary flood of pre throw up salty slavering in my mouth

Every time I see or hear anything at all about any of the Kardashian/Jenner freak show, I automatically begin the involuntary flood of pre throw up salty slavering in my mouth and I have to take a promethazine tablet for nausea. It doesn't always work so then I throw up a little bit in my mouth.
