  • 120 плохо лежит

    разг.
    smth. lies in temptation way; smth. lies handy

    Косых. Он и граф - пятак пара. Нюхом чуют, где что плохо лежит. (А. Чехов, Иванов)Kosykh: He and the count make a pair. They both have a nose for anything that lies handy.

    [Палкин] говорил и спрашивал быстро: "Не правда ли?", "Ежели что плохо лежит, то и не так уж грех велик?", "Виноват-то разве я? Искушение виновато и тот, кто об этом искушении не подумал, разве нет?" (Ю. Герман, Дорогой мой человек) — He ended every sentence with quick rhetorical questions - 'Don't you agree?' 'It isn't such a terrible crime, is it, if a thing's been placed there in temptation's way?' 'Surely I'm not to blame?' 'It's temptation that's to blame and whoever put it my way, don't you think?'
