as the famous english saying goes "the queen thinks the world smells like fresh paint"?
148291
The origin of this phrase lies in the fact that the Queen spends so much time going around to grand openings of new buildings and sites that she smells nothing but fresh paint.  Another way I've heard it used is to say that "The Queen thinks that all toilets (bathrooms) smell like fresh paint."  It could be used as a way of showing how out of touch the royals are with reality, or as an analogy of how someone may have misinterpreted a situation by reading his or her limited experience into a much more complicated issue.  Hope this helps!

The idiom is apparently derived from a centuries-old Scottish proverb, though some other references to pigs flying or pigs with wings are more famous. Here is one such reference from Lewis Carroll:\n\n"Thinking again?" the Duchess asked, with another dig of her sharp little chin.\n"I've a right to think," said Alice sharply, for she was beginning to feel a little worried.\n"Just about as much right," said the Duchess, "as pigs have to fly...." — Alice in Wonderland, chapter 9.
