I have a question!
Ô dúvida cruel!

Alguém pode me dizer como se traduz isso? Porque eu mesmo não sei.

Talvez você Alessandro...

I'll see you around.

Olá T.Rex,

Farinha do mesmo saco fica "Birds of a feather".

- Those politicians are birds of a feather. (Esses políticos são farinha do mesmo saco)

Thank you very much for the hint!

See you.

[Van-Spirandeo]

Todas as respostas que vi aqui estão perfeitas, mas eu queria fazer um adendo.
Se o "farinha do mesmo saco" quiser dizer algo como "não prestam do mesmo jeito" (como falaríamos de certos políticos, por exemplo...), acho que cai melhor a expressão "tarred with the same brush"

Veja: http://www.phrases.org.uk/bulletin_boar ... s/491.html

Hope that helps!

from thefreedictionary:

acreditar equivocadamente que alguém ou algo possui as mesas qualidades ruins que um outro alguém ou algo parececido.


Ex: I admit that some football supporters do cause trouble but it's not fair that we're all beign tarred with the same brush.


--> Na frase acima parece estar com o sentido de "tachados de maneira equivocada"
