bottomless pits
Holes without floors
Bottomless pits are holes or chasms imagined to have no floor—you could fall forever.
The phrase appears in religious contexts for hell or the abyss.
More often it describes someone with an insatiable appetite: That kid is a bottomless pit—he ate the whole pizza and wanted more.
Figuratively, anything that consumes resources endlessly: The renovation became a bottomless pit for our savings.
