    One of my favourite ones in Bulgarian is “Око за око, паста за зъби”.

    “Око за око” is “an eye for an eye” and “паста за зъби” is literally “paste for teeth” (or what we say for “toothpaste”).

    The latter is technically not a saying or an idiom, but I think it still works. I believe I don’t need to explain the absurdity of it.
