“even a worm is turning in his grave” you have done something so fundamentally offensive that even a worm would disapprove beyond the grave.
Remembered the phrase "[someone] is turning in his grave", as a way of saying that someone who's now dead would so deeply disapprove of something that a living person is doing that their corpse would stir in unease.
Then I remembered an expression, "even a worm will turn", as a way of saying that no matter how downtrodden or lowly someone seems, they can nonetheless turn against their abusers and oppressors once they've had enough of it.
Then cross-contamination happened and the phrase "a worm is turning in his grave" emerged to me. I have no idea what that means.

i remember hearing about the college app essays as a kid and how much time people spend on them and so starting in 7th grade, I would practice writing proper essays, like 10-15 pages EACH. I did this like all the way through highschool because I figured that was what I would be expected to be able to write, and then I first looked over the commonapp questions and they’re like, a couple hundred words on the vaguest prompt that has ever prompted. like, i understand there are administrative reasons, but I was so godamned shocked because everyone had called them essays, which to me meant a complete piece of writing??, and ig i just ran with that assumption as a kid? I feel like that’s pretty reasonable, is it normal that people struggle so much to write a few pages? Is this an American thing?
