Crap to animate us immoderately? It’s nothing important (1,5,2,1,6)
I believe the answer is:
a storm in a teacup
'crap to animate us immoderately? it's nothing important' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'crap to animate us immoderately? it's nothing important' is the wordplay.
'crap to animate us' can be anagrammed to 'A STORM IN A TEACUP'.
Though, I am not clear how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for a storm in a teacup that I've seen before include "too much for a trifle" , "Much Ado about Nothing" .)
