Well in my case, being in the "pickle jar" makes pretty clear sense to me (haha).

I could think of one if I weren't in such a jam.

Is "and bobs your uncle" an idiom?

Like, when people say, "Root beer floats are easy to make, just put the ice cream in the cup and pour the root beer over it and bobs your uncle!"

I love that saying, though
