Moving Bags of Lettuce

A phrase used to describe something that:
A) should be incredibly simple, but is instead quite complicated
B) should be easy, but instead requires immense effort
C) seems like it should take only a short while to accomplish, but instead takes exponentially longer than expected

The phrase appears to have originated from a conversation between an engineer and his sister early in 2024. The story goes that in describing his day, he was explaining a conveyor belt that he was designing. Intending to use “like” as a filler word, he said, “It’s just, like, moving bags of lettuce! It shouldn’t be so hard!” His sister, thinking he was using some new expression she had never heard, asked him to explain what he meant by, “like moving bags of lettuce.” Thus the expression was born.

My work was terribly difficult today. I felt like I was moving bags of lettuce.

Changing that tire was like moving bags of lettuce. It took three hours longer than I thought it would have.

Head your move

To have total control over your next move.

You can't keep asking others to show you the way, you need to head your move.

“The Move”

Driving through a lonely mountain pass at the dead of night, you see a pair of amber headlights approach rapidly in the distance. The headlights fade when you go full send on the straight line, but when you arrive at the entrance of the corner, suddenly, the car behind gets dangerously close. At the blink of an eye, the car lines up with the guardrail on your left, it initiates “The Move” and proceeds to fly pass you. Being shocked and horrified of what just happened, you mistook the corner and crashed onto a light post on the side of the road, killing you and making you feel like a shithead.

How is he going to pass his opponent on the final corner! He’s not going to use “The Move” isn’t he?

Seeing the car in front of you block the whole road, you plan to initiateThe Move” and pass him once on for all.
