If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

We eat popcorn in Israel while watching movies (both at home and in cinemas), but the equivalent of "making popcorn" never caught on here.

GUIs are like jokes. If you have to explain them, they are not so good in the first place. I wish Mickeysoft had not forgotten that*. 
* Not really. That's only the tip of the iceberg of all the reasons why I don't want to join the Mickeysoft Club anymore.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

It wasn't, but there is a very common GIF meme[^] that crops up on social media a lot, typically when a major argument is brewing in a thread. Taken to mean "settle down, this is gonna be fun!"

We eat popcorn here in Norway, but I have never heard the expression used in that sense over here.
On the other hand, most Norwegians will know of the comedian Oluf, from North Norway, with a very rough kind of humor, like when he tells "TV? No, there is no TV where we live. If we need entertainment, we throw the cat into the washing machine and watch it through the front glass door when we start the machine ..."

The reference is known but it gets lost in the French translation. But I use it as well on English speaking forums, we French know how to adapt to lower-level cultures *grabs popcorn and sits down*

Yes, I think because of the prevalence of American TV shows, memes and forums. I think a lot of colloquialisms would be lost otherwise.

Still working on the roof? Or felt off it?
[EDIT]
I should go home... I just mixed the whole beginning of your sentence and read 'I will probably...'

can of tuna.
Seriously, we need tuna can control.... Was rushing today to make SWMBO (and I love her) some lunch. Pull tab off can of tuna slipped. 7 elephanting stitches later... SOB cut my %$#% thumb to the bone. Sort of weird looking at parts of my thumb flapping in the sink. A bitch to hit the space bar.

Ditto for anything else with sharp or fragile edges. In fact, let's give up on anything that could conceivably cause any sort of injury, however slight.
We might have a problem surviving - after we've given up fire, we might discover that trees are unsafe, too.
