go to seed

To decline or fall apart; to become worn and shabby.

This phrase comes from gardening. After a plant has flowered, it falls apart, sending its seeds into the soil. As the plant dies, it 'goes to seed'.

Hicksville has gone to seed since the last time I was there.

Go put sunflower seeds in your pocket

A clever, roundabout way of telling someone to go to Hell. Inspired by this elderly Ukrainian lady who walked straight up to Russian soldiers, passing out sunflower seeds and saying "put these seeds in your pocket so that sunflowers will grow when you die here."

Your mother, your father, your lineage, your existence, go put sunflower seeds in your pocket, and most importantly, FUCK YOU!
