One's laurels must be the bum, because any time someone says of someone else, they are resting on their laurels, it seems to mean they never get off their bums.

No it has nothing to do with your bum lol

Its something to do with the greeks and Laurels leaves, the greeks made a crown of laurel leaves to the winner of the errrrr games .....(forgot the name)....a very special honour ...so to rest on your laurels is to live off your achievement ...thinking that you dont have to do anymore effort cos youve already achieved it...something like that anyway lol

I see my world is much to colorful for the laureates. who should look to their laurels. lol

Linda is correct - we have no idea what you are talking about. Living in your own mind is fine - but the rest of us can't read it.

Uh huh.. Those who expect you to read their minds...
Hell.. I'm having enough trouble trying to read my own.

Thats a fine switch, Jane. Being acronem challenged It's usually me who dosen't understand. It was all a pun.
Resting on laurels= loss of ambition due to past accomplishments
laureates= collage graduates
look to your laurels= beware of being overtaken by subordinates
