Eight Days A Week

Eight days a week is another way of saying all the time, everyday, and 24/7. It has the same meaning. Eight days a week is also the name of a popular Beatles song made in the 1960s.

Dude 1: Dude, you’ve been masturbating to porn eight days a week.
Dude 2: IKR. I’m so addicted to it.

Dude 1: You need a real girlfriend, bro. You don’t want porn to be the only thing where you see naked girls for the rest of your life.

Dude 2: True. I just feel like I don’t have any luck with girls.
Dude 1: Just put yourself out there, man. Make more friends that are girls, and you’re meet someone special. I guarantee it.

Dude 2: I just have social anxiety. That’s why.
Dude 1: Don’t worry, bro. I’ll help you.

wound tighter than an eight day clock

When a person or pet exhibits nervous energy, they are said to be “tightly wound”.
Before electricity, mechanical clocks were wound by turning a key or crank to tighten a mainspring. As the spring would lose tension, the hands would turn for about 8 days before needing to be rewound.

Damn! Did you see how much cocaine Liz snorted? She is going to be wound tighter than an eight day clock this week!
