A: How was the dinner with your blind date?

B: She’s cute. But when I was about to pick up the bill, she made no bones about complaining how overcooked her steak was.

A: Do you like her?

B: Yes, only I am a little worried she may be too hard to please.

Note: The idiom means to “clearly state one’s opinion without holding back and state a fact in a way that allows no doubt.” In 15th century England, if someone wanted to express their dissatisfaction with something, they “found bones in it.” This is a reference to the unwelcome discovery of bones in soup. If you found “no bones” in your meal, you were able to swallow it without any difficulty or objection.
