The phrase "Always go in search for the correct idiom" is #39 on a list called "The Bestest Guide to Gooder English". The idiom in the sentence is "go in search for" and it's not incorrect,really, but just kind of strange. "Use appropriate idioms" or "If you're going to use an idiom, make sure it's appropriate" would be better, I imagine.
The one on that list I haven't figured out is #40, "3D96#" Anybody know that one?
