everything including the kitchen sink
Nothing left out
Everything including the kitchen sink means absolutely everything, with nothing left out.
The phrase emphasizes exhaustive inclusion, often with a note of excess: They packed everything including the kitchen sink for a weekend trip.
The kitchen sink represents the last fixed object you'd think to bring—if even that's included, nothing was spared.
Sometimes shortened to everything but the kitchen sink, which paradoxically means the same thing.
