Heard this one on the news by a voter earlier today ...

If you’re not at the table then you’re on the menu.

Meaning: Vote in order to have a say on your future.

Here's a hypothesis: "Warmed over" refers to the preparation of leftover food to serve again. Leftovers are less desirable than food just now cooked, and the warming process can damage them further. They get overcooked, dry, limp where you want crispy, stiff where you want soft, charred around the edges. Sauces separate. Flavor vanishes. So "warmed over" is an intensifier.

doggone (it) 1851, Amer.Eng., a "fantastic perversion of god-damned" [Weekley]. But Mencken favors the theory that it is "a blend form of dog on it; in fact it is still often used with it following. It is thus a brother to the old English phrase, 'a pox upon it,' but is considerably more decorous."

"Third Time’s A Charm".....



Meaning the third time you do something it will finally work.

Sidebar: The origin of the phrase 'third time's a charm' is probably ancient, as things that come in sets of three have often been associated with good luck due to their similarity with the Holy Trinity of Christianity.
