Russian term

Столб с указателями

Non-PRO Russian to English Art/Literary
На балу стоит крайне расстроенный человек; к нему периодически подскакивают люди с вопросом "ты не видел такого-то"? - На что он в итоге взрывается вопросом "Да что я вам тут, столб с указателями?"

Дело все еще в 18 веке...

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you! I wrote "sign post" in the first place, but I couldn't find it in the vocabulary (probably because I was too tired than because it wasn't actually there) and thought I'd made it up. %-)))))"
