куда (как) ни кинь, всё (везде) клинпогов.there is no way out; one can see no other way out; every alley is a dead endДелегаты от флота съехали на берег и хмуро выслушали Вахрамеева, - он предлагал самоубийство. Но - куда ни кинь, всё клин: податься некуда, у флота не было ни угля, ни нефти. (А. Толстой, Хождение по мукам) — The delegates from the fleet came ashore and heard Vakhrameyev out in grim silence - his proposals sounded like suicide to their ears. But they could see no other way out, for the fleet had neither coal nor oil.
Надо всё же намекнуть Марии. Нет, лучше не надо, а то она подумает, что с деньгами ничего не выходит, и тогда уж совсем обомрёт. И так ходит как неживая. Куда ни кинь - везде клин. Что же делать? К кому завтра пойти? А к кому пойдёшь? Не к кому. (В. Распутин, Деньги для Марии) — Still, he might suggest it to Maria. No, better not: she'll only think he was unable to raise the money and that would kill her - she was half dead as it was. Every alley was a dead end. What was he to do? Whom to ask for money tomorrow? As if there was anybody to ask! Nobody.
