"Embrace the suck"
Mostly used in the military, it means that no matter how shitty the situation is, you make the best of it and keep pushing forward to get your mission done.

"It doesn't matter where you get your appetite, as long as you eat at home".
- Said to me early in our marriage (over 30 years ago) by my very understanding, patient, and supportive wife (and no, she was not referring to food). |

Yes, that sounds very romantic and idealistic. Until you're confronted with exactly that possibility. The prospect of dying trying. Then you're dead, didn't get what you wanted, and since you're dead, you can't even have the satisfaction of saying to yourself, 'well, at least I died trying'. You're just dead. No do-overs or second chances.
Which brings up a couple of other quotes: "He who fights and runs away, may live to fight another day. But he who is battle slain, can never rise to fight again". - The Athenian orator and statesman Demosthenes or... "Inside every cynical person is a disappointed idealist." - George Carlin |

When in response to the question "what do you want to eat?" she replies "I don't know what do you want?" it means she knows exactly what she wants and you will have to to just keep suggesting by guesswork until you get it right.
