Frick and Frack
Two peas, pod
Frick and Frack refers to two people who are inseparable companions or co-conspirators, often with a mildly mocking tone: Those two are always together—Frick and Frack.
The phrase comes from a Swiss comedy ice-skating duo popular in mid-20th-century America.
It implies the pair operates as a unit, sometimes bumblingly so.
