If I’m talking two sides of the same coin, I just can’t stand it 🙁

Two sides of the same coin – different but closely related features of one idea.

“The truth is that two things are the same,” says Dr. Michael Lund. The fact is that if people are always thinking that it is a second hand market, they are often turning out to be “squeals” rather than “counters”. I might use it in a context where someone is describing someone else as both ‘lazy’ and’messy’ in response I could say that those are ‘two sides of the same coin’ and thus suggesting that they are one and the same, thereby suggesting that the person is messy because they are lazy.

I know several sentences about two things that are good together but not necessarily good apart. You want a pithy phrase.

What do you suggest a simile for in a real world? What is the grammatical meaning of the phrase “something

without something”?

Currently on the London Underground for example there is an advert that says something like, ‘a woman’s hair without product is like rock without roll’ (the latter part usually a ridiculous separation for humour value). What’s a standard phrase used here but it’s an opportunity to be creative.

A man without ambition

is like a bird without wings (from a 1908 business magazine) A house without books
is like a room without windows (a proverb that goes back even further) but it is a

little more glamorous (see the definition if the sentence goes very far).
