Extension summary

Consume an idiom, one in every 24 hours!

Why?

The idea hit me while I was reading The Martian by Andy Weir. Rich Purnell, a character in the book, is portrayed as an autistic person, having difficulty in understanding the meaning of the abstract concepts of the language. So here goes, a chrome extension that would help me and the likes of Rich Purnell become better at such play of words. Concept is to show one idiom per day, so that it gets hard-wired in our memory.
